Gorney’s take: FACT. The chatter out there is that
Alabama and
Ohio State are the slight front-runners for
Brandon Inniss
and that the Buckeyes and
Notre Dame are the favorites for Tate. although others remain in the running for both. Inniss especially was watching
Chris Olave
’s performance at the NFL Scouting Combine on Thursday and commented on it making me believe his interest in the Buckeyes is growing. I still think both could end up elsewhere and this isn’t necessarily a package deal but Ohio State is very much in the running for both and I could see it happening for sure.
Wright’s take: FACT. Brandon Inniss and Carnell Tate are 7-on-7 teammates and may be a packaged deal of sorts. Inniss has shown a lot of love to Ohio State on social media, and another South Florida Express 7-on-7 teammate, four-star 2023 athlete
Cedrick Hawkins
, is already a verbal commitment. If Ohio State could land the trio, this would be momentous for the Buckeyes and a blow to programs like
Miami,
Florida and
Florida State. Inniss, a one-time commit to
Oklahoma, seems to have a very strong tie to Lincoln Riley from the Sooners to USC. The Trojans could play a major role in where Inniss ends up.
