The Buckeyes sure didn’t take the weekend off from recruiting.

Urban Meyer and the rest of the football coaching staff at Ohio State had a pretty busy weekend.

Did you miss out on your Buckeye recruiting fix? Don’t fret, Land-Grant Holy Land is here to save the day.

2019 QB flips to OSU from MSU


The Buckeyes have been searching high and low on the recruiting trail for a class of 2019 quarterback, and from the looks of things they’ve found finally found their man.

In Columbus for the Friday Night Lights camp, Dwan Mathis of Oak Park High (MI) flipped his verbal pledge from Big Ten foe Michigan State, and is now the 12th member of Ohio State’s talented 2019 class of future Buckeyes.

Although he’s considered the ninth pro-style quarterback in 2019, don’t get it twisted, he isn’t just a pocket passer. Mathis can run.

At The Opening Regional held in Canton, the 6-foot-5, 195-pound four-star prospect showed off his wheels, posting a 4.67 second time in the 40 yard dash.

Want to know more about Dwan Mathis, and what he’ll bring to the Buckeyes? Our Patrick Mayhorn has your back.
