Welcome to the Buckeye family, Jacoby, although you've really been in it for a couple of years.

Justin switching from TSUN = The Boren Identity.
Zach becoming a Buckeye = The Boren Supremacy.
Jacoby committing to tOSU = The Boren Ultimatum.

Third Boren joins Buckeyes
Saturday, December 4, 2010
By Tim May
THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

Once converted to Ohio State, it seems the Borens just keep coming. Jacoby Boren yesterday committed to the Buckeyes as part of the 2012 recruiting class.

"It wasn't totally predetermined, but I basically felt like it was time," Boren said after giving coach Jim Tressel a pledge.

At 6 feet 21/2 and 275 pounds, the two-way lineman from Pickerington Central not only became the fifth commitment to the 2012 class, but also will become the third Boren brother to choose Ohio State. Fifth-year senior Justin Boren is the starting left guard, and sophomore Zach the starting fullback.

Their father, Mike, was a linebacker for coach Bo Schembechler at Michigan in the 1980s, and their mother, Hope, ran track there. Justin Boren spent his first two seasons at Michigan under coach Lloyd Carr before transferring to Ohio State after Rich Rodriguez was hired.

Mike Boren said, "I am very thankful to coach Tressel and the entire Ohio State football program for believing in my boys and giving them this opportunity. I am thankful every day for their successes. I am very proud of them, and we are proud to be Buckeyes."

Jacoby said he could sense that in his father.

"He definitely is proud; this is something that doesn't happen a lot, three brothers going to the same (major) school to play football," he said.
