Ohio State is looking to put the final touches on its fantabulous 2021 football recruiting class. While most of the class is already on campus as early enrollees, there’s still a couple of big fish out there that could still decide to sign with the Buckeyes when the traditional National Signing Day gets here.
One of those two is four-star linebacker Raesjon Davis out of the powerhouse Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, California. He is a former LSU commit that reopened his commitment, and Ohio State has been making a late push for his services. So much so, that he and his parents made a trip all the way from Southern California to Columbus to check things out this weekend.
With the recruiting dead period still in effect, he couldn’t meet in person with any of the coaching staff, but you can bet they were in touch via text message and phone as Davis and family toured the city.
According to tweets Davis shared, it sure looks like he and his parents had one whale of a time. First, we witnessed the following tweet that raised some eyebrows.
We had a great time in Columbus, might be back soon🤓

“Might be back soon.” Hmmm, what could that mean. Either Davis is trolling and teasing the OSU fanbase or he is seriously considering making Columbus his home for college.
But that wasn’t all. Davis was also retweeting others that seemed to be excited about how his trip went.

We’ll have more on this saga as it continues. There’s reason to be excited because it appears as though the OSU coaching staff really wants Davis to be a part of things. He is ranked as the No. 4 outside linebacker in the 2021 class and No. 45 overall prospect according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.
Could there be some scarlet and gray in his future? We will likely find out very soon.
