Fresh off spring break, Ohio State offers three blue-chip prospects in the 2025 recruiting class.

Ohio State is fresh off of spring break, which means the coaching staff and the players are back to spring practices. But current Ohio State players and coaches are not the only ones excited for spring ball to be back, as the Buckeyes will be playing host to dozens of recruits over the next month and a half.

With these visits, expect the Buckeyes to also be offering scholarships to those players they feel best fit the mold of a Buckeye.

Ohio State offers trio of 2025 prospects


Ohio State played host to a number of highly-talented recruits this past weekend, including a large group of players from the West Coast. The group of blue-chip visitors included recruits both already offered to play college football for Ohio State and recruits hoping to receive a scholarship offer.

On Monday, Ohio State dished out official scholarships to a trio of 2025 prospects, including two five-stars and one four-star. Below we will break down those offers:

Five-star safety Jadyn Hudson


Class: 2025
Size: 6-foot-2 / 175-pounds
Hometown: Pittsburg, CA / Pittsburg
Recruiting Update: Hudson is one of the top recruits in all of the 2025 class. He is viewed as the No. 3 safety in the 2025 class and the No. 15 overall prospect. Hudson is also the No. 2 prospect from the talent-rich state of California. Hudson also holds dozens of scholarship offers from the likes of Georgia, LSU, Tennessee, USC, Oklahoma, Miami, Oregon, Michigan, Michigan State, Maryland, Penn State and now Ohio State.

AG2G!! BLESSED to receive an offer from Thee Ohio State University !! Thank you coach @ryandaytime @Coach_Eliano and the rest of the staff for believing in me! @OhioStateFB @PittHSFootball @CoachBriscoeWR #GoBucks #TEAMHUDSON pic.twitter.com/ZiOY7Fkhro

Five-star WR Phillip Bell III


Class: 2025
Size: 6-foot-2 / 195-pounds
Hometown: Mission Hills, CA / Bishop Alemany
Recruiting Update: Bell was the only offensive player to receive a scholarship offer from the Buckeyes on Monday, but he plays at a position Ohio State is known for producing talent at — wide receiver. With Brian Hartline on the staff, Ohio State will seemingly be involved in any recruitment for a WR they desire.

Bell is considered the No. 5 WR in the 247Sports Composite Rankings, and is the No. 20 overall prospect. He is also the No. 3 recruit from California. Like Hudson, he holds dozens of scholarship offers from programs like Auburn, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas A&M, USC, Texas, Oklahoma, Miami, Notre Dame, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Michigan State, Penn State and now Ohio State.

AG2G! Blessed to receive a Blessing from THEE Ohio State University! Thank you @ryandaytime and the rest of the @OhioStateFB staff for believing in me. @brianhartline @CoachJordan82 @CoreyDennis_ @CoachBriscoeWR @jnashmusic #GoBucks pic.twitter.com/P88mnLxlGh

Four-star CB Jett White


Class: 2025
Size: 6-foot-1.5 / 160-pounds
Hometown: Los Alamitos, CA / Los Alamitos
Recruiting Update: White is a talented cornerback, and Ohio State has made the position one of importance in the 2025 class, already offering seven CB’s and the program’s lone verbal commit in the class plays at the position in Jontae Gilbert.

White was at one time committed to play for USC, but decommitted from the Trojans in January. Since re-opening his recruitment, he has added to his already impressive offer sheet holding offers from the likes of Alabama. Arkansas, Georgia, LSU, Texas A&M, Florida State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Notre Dame, Maryland, Michigan, Michigan State, Nebraska, Penn State and now Ohio State.

White is viewed as the No. 5 CB in the 247Sports Composite Rankings and is the No. 64 overall prospect. He is also the No. 11 recruit out of California.

Recruits planning upcoming visits to Ohio State


As mentioned above, the coming month and a half will be busy for the Ohio State coaching staff as they focus on spring practices and hosting elite prospects weekly. On Monday we learned of more blue-chip prospects that plan to visit with the Buckeyes this spring. Below is a list of some of those recruits:

LGHL eBay auctions turn up interesting Ohio State stuff

eBay auctions turn up interesting Ohio State stuff

A bored browse through the eBay listings turned up some finds that piqued my interest this weekend.

There’s so little downtime in life these days that many of us simply don’t know how to unplug and stay that way. Minutes and hours spent in waiting rooms, standing in lines, or even taking bathroom breaks go by more quickly and easily when scrolling social media feeds, browsing online sales, or checking various accounts online to make sure everything is as it should be.

Such activities — for me, anyway — include the periodic walk through auction listings with general search terms to see what kinds of things might show up. It’s a bit like an online garage sale. I was scrolling through eBay this weekend and found some interesting things. For some, I wouldn’t mind having a few extra disposable dollars, while others I would never buy but I found it fascinating to see them being sold.

I’ll let you decide which is which from the items below.

1961 Gold Pants​


For the low, low price of $1,850, you can click the “buy it now” button and pick up a pair of Gold Pants won by the 1961 Buckeyes that beat Michigan 50-20 on Nov. 25. Woody Hayes’ team started that season with a 7-7 tie against TCU and then ran the table to a final record of 8-0-1, finishing No. 2 in the country after obliterating That Team Up North in The Game.

It would be cool to have a Gold Pants pendant — not as cool as winning one by beating the Wolverines, but still awfully sweet.

Lot of 11 Ohio State Hats​


If you’re adventurous, you could be the first person (as of this writing) to bid on a lot of 11 different OSU hats with a starting bid of $10. That’s a pretty good deal, but there are some unknowns. The listing says that some of them are new and some used. It doesn’t specify which are which, although some assumptions can be made from the photo.

It also says that three of the hats are fitted. It doesn’t give the size or say whether the fitted hats are all the same size, but presumably an inquiry to the seller could unearth such information. A few of these hats are incredibly ugly designs, but there are some cool ones, such as the 2002 football national championship hat, the 2007 Final Four cap, and one from the Sugar Bowl. The tags are still on a few of them.

If you’re a hat person, this might be up your alley. I personally don’t feel great about the thought of putting on someone else’s hat.

Reversible Field Hockey Pinnie​


Look, you just don’t see a lot of field hockey stuff out there. My eye is always on the lookout for merchandise pertaining to the non-revenue sports. This reversible Nike Ohio State field hockey jersey pinnie is a pretty cool item, but I could never wear it because it’s a size small. Looks like fantastic beach or pool attire for someone out there, though.

Magnet of Whatever this Helmet Is​



I don’t know if I’ve ever seen this design before, but I wouldn’t hate it as an alternate uniform option. In full disclosure, I am a traditionalist when it comes to uniforms. Ohio State has great ones, so there’s no need to stray. However, if they’re going to use alternates anyway, why not really go for it?

This helmet in matte scarlet with the gray block O and the buckeye leaf looks fantastic to me, and Marvin Harrison Jr. would look great catching a winning touchdown pass against Michigan wearing it. This item is just a magnet, and it’s cheap, but I dig the idea of this helmet concept.

Beer Mugs!​


If you’ve got a spare 50 bucks laying around, you can get a set of four beer mugs commemorating 100 years of Buckeye football. If the listing is to be believed, these mugs were sold 53 years ago in 1970. It might be a little generous to call them beer mugs, however. When you see the photo of one of the mugs in someone’s hand, they appear to be pretty small — either that or the person in the photo has giant hands (see feature photo above).

Maybe people just didn’t like big beers in 1970.



There were all kinds of other curiosities, such as a myriad of knock-off conference, national, and bowl championship rings for about $20 each, bobbleheads, Christmas ornaments, etc.

What are some of your most interesting eBay or Facebook Marketplace finds?
