If this kid is half the player his Dad was this an easy yes for me on pedigree alone.

I’m a little worried about that scum up north for Weddle. Gut feeling, dad played for Whittingham, and he could easily play as a freshman there due to their room likely being weaker than ours and UGA

Michigan wasn’t named as a factor per Adam Gorney. Ohio State and Georgia battle with Oklahoma behind them. Utah, UCLA, Cal and Oregon were named as other schools of interest.

Gaige Weddle says his only two planned game day visits for now are Ohio State when we host Michigan and Utah because his dad is being inducted into the Hall of Fame. Says he would love to make it to games at UCLA and Cal as well and a visit to Miami is very unlikely.
He’s not expected to make stops at Georgia, BYU, USC or any other program he made game day visits to last season.

Ohio State football hit with prediction to add the son of a former NFL defensive great to Matt Patricia’s defense​

Ohio State is after a big time 2028 recruit with a father who starred in the NFL. The Buckeyes have now been predicted to land the four-star defender from California.

Weddle has already built a strong relationship with Ohio State​

Weddle has been on Ohio State’s campus multiple times this year, and his father has joined him on those visits. The pair have built what is already a strong relationship with Ohio State safeties coach Matt Guerreri, and that connection appears to be paying dividends on the recruiting trail.

Gorney’s prediction has Weddle choosing the Buckeyes over schools like Utah, where his dad played, along with Georgia, Miami, Michigan, and Tennessee. It’s still early for the class of 2028, but players are beginning to come off the board at a faster rate. Weddle could be a player who wants to make a decision at some point this year, and Ohio State is in a good spot to make that happen when he does. Weddle take a game day visit to Ohio State this fall.

“He’s a Utes legacy and Weddle is warming up even more to them but Ohio State isn’t blowing it out of the water with 2027 safety recruiting, his connection to position coach Matt Guerrieri is like a respected friend and there’s no arguing about the development in Columbus,” Gorney wrote.

Ohio State hasn’t gone heavily after safeties in the class of 2027, where they hold two commitments at the position with four-star Eli Johnson and three-star Angelo Smith, the brother of Jeremiah Smith. Weddle is a higher-level prospect than both and is a player Ohio State is putting its focus on in 2028.

Weddle is a name to watch, and the prediction in favor of the Buckeyes here feels pretty good.
