Ohio State football already has an impressive recruiting haul for the 2021 class, but it’s still in line to get several other high-profile prospects. One of those is five-star receiver Emeka Egbuka out of Steilacoom High School in Washington state, and there is apparently mutual interest.
At 6-foot, 190 pounds, Egbuka is ranked as the No. 1 wide receiver in the entire class and eighth overall prospect in the country according to the 247Sports Composite Index.
Egbuka dropped his final four schools on his Twitter profile Friday, and the Buckeyes are included. The other three schools are Washington, Clemson, and Oklahoma.
