Ohio State is continuing to work on adding to the No. 4 ranked class in the country. As June rolls into full swing, the Buckeyes will be hosting some big-time recruits with hopes of gaining more verbal pledges to join the quest to bring a championship to Columbus.
One big name OSU already has a commitment from is Luke Montgomery who is the No. 4 rated tackle in the 2023 class. But the Bucks want more and need more at the tackle position. On Thursday Ryan Day got some good news that five-star prospect Samson Okunlola has put Ohio State on the shortlist.
Here’s what Okunlola had to say about the Buckeyes:
“I like the o-line coach (Justin Frye). He is more on the younger side of o-line coaches but he’s still a great dude. Right now they have a pretty good o-line. They may have room to start at the left tackle, but you have to work for it.”
