Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. put on quite a show on Saturday against Maryland, leading the Buckeyes offense with eight receptions for 163 yards and a touchdown in a 37-17 victory.

Meantime, Bryce James, the younger son of LeBron James, was in attendance at the game on an unofficial visit, with Ohio State hoping to impress the four-star basketball recruit from the class of 2025.

After scoring a touchdown, Harrison seemed to make a sly recruiting pitch to James, celebrating his score by recreating LeBron’s iconic “silencer” celebration.

It’s not the first time this year that college athletes have pulled out LeBron’s celebrations on the field.

When USC played Colorado earlier in the year, Trojans quarterback and reigning Heisman winner Caleb Williams celebrated a touchdown by crowning himself as LeBron has in the past.

James’s older son, Bronny, is set to make his college basketball debut for the Trojans in the upcoming season.
