Gee Scott, Jr. is a 4-star wide receiver out of Sammamish, Washington who caught 48 passes for 654 yards and six touchdowns this past season as a junior, earning First-Team All-State honors in the process. Scott (6-3 211) is a physical receiver with size who attacks the football and then attacks the first-down marker.
Sampson James (6-1 211) was a First-Team All-State selection last season as a junior. He rushed for 1,782 yards and 20 touchdowns. He will be enrolling at Ohio State in January. James is plenty accustomed to running the ball out of the shotgun, so the transition to OSU’s running game should be a quick learn. He displays…
Ryan Jacoby (6-5 270) was a First-Team All-State left tackle for Mentor last season as a junior. He is an athletic lineman who pairs his agility very well with an angry streak. His nickname may as well be Black Death for as many people as he’s put into the ground. He has the kind of demeanor that fits well for an offensive lineman.
When Tampa offensive tackle Nicholas Petit-Frere committed to Ohio State and signed with the Buckeyes last Wednesday, he gave the 2018 OSU recruiting class a very important piece that they had been lacking. Ohio State is thin at offensive tackle, and even though Tennessee tackle Max Wray signed in December, the Buckeyes…
California wide receiver Chris Olave committed to Ohio State Sunday night. He became the fifth receiver in the Buckeyes’ 2018 class, joining H-back Jaelen Gill and wideouts L’Christian Smith, Cameron Brown, and Kamryn Babb. Olave is the No. 69 receiver in the 247Sports Composite. Ohio State now has 24 commitments in…
Ramsey, New Jersey (Don Bosco Prep) defensive lineman Tyler Friday committed to Ohio State this past Friday, and in doing so helped to fill a pass-rushing need for the Buckeyes in the 2018 OSU recruiting class. He joins 4-star Cleveland defensive end Tyreke Smith and three highly-touted defensive tackles so far in OSU’s defensive line class.
Tyreke Smith is already a complete player on the high school level in that he isn’t just a pass rusher or a run stopper. He is able to do both, and do them interchangeably. He is strong enough to hold up at the point of attack, but quick enough to split double teams when on the inside. When he rushes the passer from the outside…
St. Louis wide receiver Cameron Brown signed with Ohio State on Wednesday after spending months as a Nebraska verbal commit. After he received his OSU offer in June, he decommited from the Huskers and many thought it was just a matter of time before he was a Buckeye. Brown ended up recommitting to Nebraska two months later…
Pocatello, Idaho defensive tackle Tommy Togiai committed to Ohio State Tuesday night, giving the Buckeyes a third interior lineman in their already No. 1-ranked 2018 recruiting class. OSU offered Togiai back in February, and he made the long trek to Columbus this past summer for Friday Night Lights. Obviously, the OSU coaches…
St. Louis wide receiver Kamryn Babb committed to Ohio State on Tuesday, and when he did he finally gave the Buckeyes another outside receiving threat to join 6-foot-6 L’Christian “Blue” Smith. Babb has been OSU’s top receiver target during the 2018 recruiting cycle, so even though this was an expected commitment, it shouldn’t…
Texas quarterback Matthew Baldwin (6-3 194) committed to Ohio State on Thursday, which may or may not impact the signing of Emory Jones, but the Buckeyes simply couldn’t risk not having a quarterback in the 2018 recruiting class. He was previously committed to Colorado State, where he verbally pledged to play prior…
