CARTER PICKS UP OSU OFFER
North Carolina four-star 2023 defensive lineman Daevin Hobbs wasn’t the only 2023 prospect to pick up a late offer from Ohio State last week. The Buckeyes also offered four-star linebacker/running back Arion Carter on Friday, who has seen a surge in his recruitment over the last month. The 6-foot-1, 210-pound prospect from Smyrna, Tennessee, is a two-way player at his high school, and the Buckeyes could have interest in him at either position. Carter committed to Memphis in July, but in September alone, got offers from the likes of Alabama, Auburn, USC, Tennessee, Kentucky, Michigan, LSU, Florida, Oregon, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Louisville, California and now Ohio State.

ARION CARTER
Alright, so there’s good news and bad news here regarding Carter, a Memphis commit. The bad news is Carter is trending toward Alabama at the moment. As for the good news, Carter is still expected to take an official visit to Ohio State on Nov. 12 for the Indiana game, so the Buckeyes will have a chance to sway the Tennessee product on that visit. It feels like if OSU is going to take another linebacker this cycle, it’s Carter or bust, so it remains to be seen if Arvell Reese will be the lone linebacker commit added to OSU’s roster next season.

Saturday was the first time Carter had met Day in person, though the two had spoken over the phone several times beforehand.

“Talking with coach (Ryan) Day, in person, just sitting in his office and talking with him about me and how I fit in that program was really good,” Carter said. “He told me he liked me as a young man and an individual, and how my game is and how I’d be able to make an impact there and how the school would be able to make an impact on me while also building my brand as an athlete.”

Carter also met with Jim Knowles on his visit, but the pair had been building a relationship ever since the Buckeyes offered him in September. OSU’s new defensive coordinator stopped by Smyrna High School (Smyrna, Tennessee) earlier this fall to evaluate Carter in person and the pair communicate about three times per week.

“It's been great,” Carter said of his and Knowles’ relationship. “We’ve just been able to build a relationship over these past couple months. And really just diving in, getting to know each other, understanding him outside football also. He's a great coach and a really smart man and one of the best in the game. To come over to Ohio State and turn the program around defensively as far as being in the top 10 in the country, you know he knows what he's talking about. He’s a great coach, and when you have great athletes and put them together, it can be dangerous.”
