WITTEN ENJOYS OSU VISIT
One of Ohio State’s top tight end prospects in the 2024 class was among the recruiting visitors in attendance for the Buckeyes’ 52-21 win against Wisconsin on Saturday. Four-star Ohio tight end Damarion Witten visited OSU for the second time this fall with a host of his Glenville teammates, including 2023 linebacker OSU commit Arvell Reese and 2024 cornerback target Bryce West.

“I think the visit went great,” Witten told Eleven Warriors. “It was a great game from OSU.”

Witten picked up his OSU offer a few days after his first gameday visit on Sept. 3 for the Notre Dame game and has already received a 247Sports Crystal Ball projection in Ohio State’s favor. OSU would like to take two tight ends in the 2024 cycle, and Witten and four-star prospect Christian Bentancur seem to be the highest-priority targets at this point.

If Ohio State can land both Witten and West with Reese already in the fold for 2023, the once-famous Glenville pipeline may be officially reopened. It’s certainly a thing on the players’ minds.

“It’s definitely powerful because I know Arvell well, when we get there, he tells you ‘This is the place you want to be, there’s no better place to be than (Ohio State),’” West told Eleven Warriors Sunday. “Then Damarion, I talk to him a lot about colleges and I can see that he really likes Ohio State too.”

Four-star Ohio 2024 tight end Damarion Witten is becoming more comfortable with Ohio State after each visit to Columbus.

The Glenville product camped with the Buckeyes in June alongside several of his high school teammates, then made his way back to OSU for gameday trips in September for the Notre Dame and Wisconsin games.

“My visits to OSU were great,” Witten said. “My main takeaways are the way they do things on game days are amazing and the way they involve everyone in the game.”

But his recent visit to Columbus Saturday was a bit different than the previous two, as he entered Ohio Stadium with an OSU offer already in hand. A few days after his Notre Dame visit on Sept. 3, Witten received news he was hoping to hear for a long time. Ryan Day and Kevin Wilson reached out to Glenville head coach Ted Ginn Sr. to let him know they were going to offer Witten a scholarship. Ginn Sr. let Witten’s parents know about the good news, and they told the standout tight end he landed his dream offer after he came home from practice.

Won’t Royer be gone by the time Witten got to campus?
I was thinking redshirt Freshman this past year.

EDIT:
Ohio State Overview
• Joe is in his third season with the program and has four seasons of eligibility

That explanation seems trivial. I know there was a redshirt involved, maybe he medicaled also? doesnt really say other than red-shirted in 2020 (Covid year?) and played 5 games in 21. 2022 isn't even listed and I know he played. OhioStateBuckeyes.com seems to need some updates
