Pair of 2026 OL put Ohio State in top schools, Buckeyes complete massive visitor weekend

2026 five-star OT Felix Ojo | via @Hayesfawcett3 on Twitter
Recruiting is in full swing in Columbus.
Columbus, Ohio was the place to be this past weekend, as a large number of highly regarded prospects flocked to Ohio State’s campus for both official and unofficial visits to kick off what should be a loaded summer of recruiting for the Buckeyes.
Before we get to that, Ryan Day’s group — and more specifically Tyler Bowen’s position group — got things started on Friday as a pair of 2026 offensive lineman cut down their lists and included Ohio State among their top schools.
First up, offensive tackle Chancellor Campbell narrowed his focus from over two dozen scholarship offers down to a final five, with the Buckeyes among the smaller group alongside Colorado, Florida, Georgia and Penn State.
A Florida native, Campbell is currently listed as the No. 37 OT and No. 55 player out of the Sunshine State in the 2026 class, per 247Sports’ rankings. A three-star prospect, Campbell is listed at a whopping 6-foot-8, 295 pounds, and is a multi-sport athlete, competing on the hardwood as well for Lakewood High School. Bowen will get a chance to further impress the big-bodied tackle during his official visit to Columbus, which is scheduled for June 13.
Elsewhere, another Florida native offensive lineman gave an update on his recruitment as four-star IOL Micah Smith also cut his list down on Friday afternoon, trimming things to a final six schools which included the Buckeyes in addition to Alabama, Illinois, South Carolina, Tennessee and UCLA.
Smith ranks as the No. 10 IOL and No. 165 player nationally per the 247Sports Composite, in addition to the No. 23 prospect in Florida in this cycle. The 6-foot-5.5, 325-pound lineman has made official visits to both Illinois and UCLA, and with a commitment date set for June 7, it looks like the Bruins will ultimately be the destination for Smith.
Even if Smith chooses the West Coast school over Ohio State, there is a ton of time between now and when pen meets paper in December. Look for Bowen and the Buckeyes to remain active in this recruitment and attempt to get Smith on campus sometime before the door is officially closed.
As previously mentioned, this past weekend functioned as Ohio State’s first big recruiting weekend of the summer, with a number of high four and five-star prospects in attendance over the past few days. Below are some of the big names in the 2026 class who made the trek to Columbus.
All rankings are via the 247Sports Composite.

Lemme guess: Kelly wants LSU to play Rutgers, Mich State, Maryland and Nebraska!
Ohio State football team could face an SEC team every year if one coach gets his way
One SEC coach is proposing that the league play a Big Ten team in a non-conference game every year.scarletandgame.com
Ohio State football team could face an SEC team every year if one coach gets his way
One SEC coach is proposing that the league play a Big Ten team in a non-conference game every year.
The Ohio State football program does a pretty good job of scheduling at least one premier non-conference game a season. Last year was one of the few seasons in which that didn't happen, but they make up for that in 2025 with Texas coming to play the Buckeyes in the Shoe.
Other Big Ten teams don't take the same approach to scheduling, which is disappointing. Texas has taken that approach now that they are in the SEC, which is nice to see. They will play Michigan and Ohio State in back-to-back seasons in regular-season games.
LSU head coach Brian Kelly wants to see this happen more often. In fact, he wants the Big Ten and SEC to have games every single season. He is proposing that the SEC move to a nine-game conference schedule and that the Big Ten and SEC schedule one non-conference game against each other.
The Ohio State football team would play the SEC every year in Brian Kelly's proposal
In Kelly's proposal, the Buckeyes would be playing an SEC team in the regular season every single year. It would certainly create more excitement for college football fans across the country if both conferences were able to commit to a scheduling model like this.

A lot of SEC schools get criticized for their weak non-conference schedules year after year. It's refreshing that Kelly is looking to improve that by adding a Big Ten team to the schedule every single season. The Ohio State Buckeyes certainly have no issue playing SEC schools.
Ohio State is scheduled to play Texas, Georgia, and Alabama in home-and-homes in the next six years. They are clearly not afraid of these premier matchups, as they know it will help them prepare for Big Ten Conference games, as well as College Football Playoff games.
