2021 VA OL Tristan Leigh (Clemson Verbal)

Well that's great to hear, would be ENORMOUS to land Leigh after missing on Latham, though I don't think that one is over. Latham or no Latham, Leigh needs to be an absolute priority and it sounds like he is. Honestly pretty surprised to hear we gained so much ground.

We land Leigh and it completely erases any hurt from missing on Latham and Burton

Gotcha...just wasn’t priority #1 at Tackle I guess?
I think the more likely scenario is that Ohio State coaches and commits felt that Latham was the guy who was most likely going to end up in the class and most eyes (especially the people who write articles and generate the perception of priorities) were focused on him - and then Latham spent three months on lockdown in a house with his Bama-loving mom and now Leigh feels like the more realistic option, so here we are.

The coaches are clearly still going to continue recruiting Latham moving forward and I don’t think ranking the options at tackle really applies in this situation as they are both clearly top options.

Ohio State isn’t out of Tristan Leigh sweepstakes

He’s been laying low for a while now, but there’s been some definite smoke of late when it comes to the recruitment of Tristan Leigh. The country’s No. 3-ranked offensive tackle prospect had long been considered a Clemson lean, but there’s been a stirring of momentum in the direction of both LSU and Ohio State. There’s no plan for a decision and the Buckeyes are hoping that Leigh’s willingness to delay until official visits can happen will keep them in the game as they keep growing the relationship.

Adam Friedman (Rivals) rates the contenders for Leigh...
1 LSU with a slight lead
2.Oklahoma just moved up a couple spots due to Caleb Williams commitment. Their parents are apparently buds.
3.Ohio State ...same old mantra, need to get a visit.
4.Clemson...doesn't seem to be recruiting him as intensely as before.
5.Bama...will need to get a visit as well, but he is very curious about the program.
