Birm adds that DeBose is a Cleveland native and things are really starting to progress well with him.

Not going to get my hopes up until pen is put to paper, but this would be a big one for just about every reason.

I think what makes this one a little more realistic than a regular AL recruit, is that he's from OH and I believe still has family there.

I believe we're in a good spot.
As a reminder for everyone, Micah DeBose is the five star OT currently committed to Georgia. Lives in Alabama now, but grew up in Cleveland. We offered him over the summer when he came up for our cookout.
In every single interview DeBose gives, he makes it very clear that his recruitment is wide open. Said he's only "dating" Georgia and is not even close to "married" yet (pretty funny line).
He declared Ohio State as "definitely in his top 3" around a month ago. To be honest based on all his interviews, it seems like it's Ohio State vs Georgia with everyone else running in third.

FIVE-STAR 2025 OFFENSIVE TACKLE MICAH DEBOSE IMPRESSED BY OHIO STATE VISIT, SAYS OSU HAS BECOME "ONE OF MY TOP SCHOOLS"

Last weekend, Ohio State hosted one of the most highly touted players in the entire 2025 cycle.
From both perspectives, the visit was a tremendous success, as five-star Alabama offensive tackle Micah DeBose told Eleven Warriors he believes his trip to Columbus was great and “made OSU one of my top schools.”
Last weekend was DeBose’s second visit to Ohio State – the first coming in July for the Buckeyes’ summer recruiting event, the same trip where the offensive tackle picked up his Ohio State offer.
“I think the visit went well,” DeBose said after attending Ohio State’s 38-3 win over Michigan State. “The fans and coaches are so different, and I love that. Just the culture and the O-H-I-O (chants) were really fun to me. Talking to the coaches, I talked to coach (Corey) Dennis, coach (Justin) Frye, coach (Ryan) Day and coach Mike (Sollenne), they’re all great people. I’ve talked with them about football a lot, but my visit wasn’t just all about football. It was about how my daily life is going and getting to know me more on a personal level. Overall, my visit to Ohio State was great and I will be back sooner than later.”
While watching the Buckeyes dominate Michigan State on the field, he couldn’t help but come away impressed by the team’s performance in the trenches.
“They played dominant,” DeBose said. “I didn’t see any sacks. They were just dominant.”
On the visit, DeBose had an extensive talk with Ohio State offensive line coach Justin Frye. While DeBose helped lead C F Vigor High School (Mobile, Alabama) to a 7-3 record, he wasn’t thrilled with his individual performance this year.
“We talked about how my season went,” DeBose said of his conversation with Frye. “We talked about ways I can improve myself and my team while also improving my leadership. I personally don’t think I did well as a player this year, so he told me my thoughts can be venom or they can be fuel. So I didn’t do well, in my opinion, so am I going to sit down and let it linger, or get it over it and try to do better?”
DeBose isn’t your typical Southern recruit. He has strong ties to The Buckeye State, as he was born in Cleveland and lived in Ohio for the first eight years of his life before moving to Alabama.
“Cleveland was very bad at the time, so it was a blessing in disguise,” DeBose said. “If I stayed in Cleveland, I don’t know if I’d be playing football.”
