The state of Florida has been a pipeline to [autotag]Ohio State[/autotag] for many years. Multiple impact players have made their way from the Sunshine State to Columbus.
Head coach [autotag]Ryan Day[/autotag] is after another Florida prospect in 2025 athlete [autotag]Tarvos Alford II[/autotag]. The 6-foot, 2-inch, 210-pound most likely future linebacker was offered a scholarship.
Alford is currently unranked by the 247Sports composite, but after the next update, that should change. His current offer list is very impressive as Penn State, Florida, Auburn, and others had offered prior to the Buckeyes.
This offer was a big deal to the 772, as Alford was the first prospect ever Ohio State offered from the east-central Florida area.
Unbelievable! Blessed and highly favored to receive an offer from THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY!🌰 #gobuckeyes #BuckeyeNation @ryandaytime @JLaurinaitis55 @CoachMcGrath22 @CoachKee @CoachGroody17 @CoachJMolina @Andrew_Ivins @MohrRecruiting @RyanWrightRNG pic.twitter.com/jk6HlechDv
