Wow, Toutant's commitment really changes the look of the 2020 offensive line class - a third true OT to go along with Paris Johnson, Jr. and Trey Leroux. And the Buckeyes are still very much in the mix for Reece Atteberry, Josh Fryar, Chris Morris, and maybe even Michael Carmody, all of whom are scheduled to make official visits to Ohio State later this month. I wonder if any of the aforementioned will cancel his visit....

I notice from Toutant's 247 profile that he made at least four unofficial visits to Penn State this calendar year (February 2nd; March 16th; April 13th; and May 18th). It seemed like he was really solid to Penn State. I wonder what happened? Maybe some of that program instability that Julian Fleming mentioned in his recent interviews.

Feel like I'm crazy, but I had to find this thread by searching for it. I can't see it show up in the recruiting forum, even though it says above it has been posted there.

Holy cow...he has really good feet and has been well coached. Love the mean streak, when he touches people they fall. Also looks really good at blocking on the second level against much smaller players. I'm very impressed!

WHAT GRANT TOUTANT'S COMMITMENT MEANS FOR OHIO STATE'S 2020 RECRUITING CLASS

104688_h.jpg


Finding the right fit for your college football program isn't just about what happens on the field, but off it as well. Today, Ohio State added a key piece. How will that commitment impact the Buckeyes?

Ohio State earned the commitment of Grant Toutant on Sunday night, as the Michigan four-star offensive tackle flipped his commitment from Penn State to Ohio State.

Rated as the No. 27 offensive tackle in the 2020 class, Toutant had been committed to Penn State since November and was offered by Ohio State in January.

Let's take a look at how his commitment influences Ohio State's 2020 recruiting class.

ON THE FIELD
Toutant, like recent offensive line commitments Dawand Jones and Trey Leroux, is a big body at 6-foot-7, 320 pounds. But Toutant is something more than just that. The No. 9 Michigan recruit is athletic for his size and has good footwork.

Toutant has played right tackle primarily for De La Salle and faced good competition at the high school level, including Michigan defensive end commit Braiden McGregor.

At the Under Armour All-America Camp in Cincinnati in April, Toutant stood out as the best offensive lineman at the event – an event Ohio State commits Leroux and Jakob James attended as well. He moved quickly, carried his weight the best of anyone in attendance and was a brick wall against very good local defensive linemen.

Toutant adds to what will likely be one of the Big Ten’s largest offensive lines in the near future, but he is also the most polished among the incomers.
