2027 TN RB David Gabriel Georges (Verbal Offer)

Recruiting insider sticks with Ohio State as the choice for David Gabriel Georges​

Steve Wiltfong of Rivals gave the latest update on the five-star running back from Tennessee, and it continues to sound good for Ohio State’s chances.

“I’m still riding with my prediction in favor of Ohio State for Chattanooga (Tenn.) Baylor School five-star running back David Gabriel Georges,” Wiltfong wrote recently. “With the way the Buckeyes have developed and showcased running backs, to the consistency of the program, to the competitive NIL opportunities, Ohio State checks the most boxes and is the best fit.”

According to 247 Sports Composite, Gabriel Georges is the No. 10 overall player and No. 2 running back in the class of 2027. Carlos Locklyn has been recruiting the 6-foot, 215-pound Gabriel Georges since the Ohio State running backs coach was at Oregon. The relationship the two have is playing a key role in Ohio State’s chances.

The Ohio State Buckeyes just wrapped up their first big recruiting weekend of the summer with multiple key visitors in town.

It was the official visit weekend for Baylor School (TN) five-star RB David Gabriel Georges. The elite running back recruit was Ohio State’s most important recruit on campus; the Buckeyes have identified Gabriel Georges as their biggest target during the 2027 cycle.

Coming off of the first of four official visits Gabriel Georges is set to make, it’s sounding good for the Buckeyes chances of landing him.

Ohio State is going all-in to land David Gabriel Georges

Ohio State running backs coach Carlos Locklyn has been recruiting Gabriel Georges since he was at Oregon. The relationship is huge for Ohio State’s chances. Still, NIL is going to be a major part of it, and the Buckeyes are said to be stepping up in that department.

According to Lettermen Row’s Alex Gleitman, the Buckeyes are going away from their normal NIL practices with the running back position.

“One thing to note, when I asked about NIL, I was told Ohio State is all-in on this one,” Gleitman wrote. “The Buckeyes usually don’t do that for backs, but they feel DGG is special, maybe generational to some extent. If they lose out, I wouldn’t expect it to be for NIL.”
