Good ol' Miami Trace...last player we had come from there was Nathan Williams. Seems like yet another future Ohio OL that we will pursue hard. Loving that Ohio is producing so many good OL lately, should help big time.

Too soon old, too late smart
Guess Day & Co, plus Chip now, has got to plant their/our flag with all these Ohioians. Also Pantoni must identify any and all youngsters that may blow up during the season, so they don't get miffed that tOSU bypassed them on their original net. No pressure there, uh, Mark? It's been awhile since there were this many 'gets' within our borders, have no idea what the talking heads think of them nationally, but as the BP readers have continuously opined, "there's something special about an Ohio kid". Agree to that, and hope that Chip still has some juice to go recruiting for some stud pieces for the Buckeyes. We'll see. Go Bucks!

The thing I’m most excited for in the ‘26 class is OSU having a very real shot at 2 OTs FROM OH! And if they can land 1 of the 3 on this list, then it just continues OSU’s insane run on QBs

Same here, Greer and Riley are absolutely legit and we're strong favorites. Ohio is pumping out OL right now and at the right time for our program. Plus Lowe in '25, and a slew of others before that. Big advantage having the home grown talent to fill out our OL.

Just tuned in, and glad I did. You've answered my question, 'where's the beef', with capital letters. If tOSU gets an all-Ohio OL of these kids, I'll probably fall to my knees weeping with joy. I harken back to the Woody days, and have never seen such a dearth of big 'uns at THE Ohio State. Gladdened to see one OT recruit mentioning that tOSU is noted for 'bookend tackles' (brought a smile to my face), so hopefully the results on the gridiron this year will prove out that Buckeyeland is the place to be. Wonder how Chip and Frye will work together, as Kelley recommended Frye to Day. Go Bucks!

With Bell showing interest (but no commit), and Curtis committing to Georgia, this could be a nice third option.
Kid is out of Illinois.
Holds a few tier 2 offers: Tenn, scum, Missouri, Nebraska
