Ohio State makes top six for highly rated 2023 tight end

Four-star tight end, Walker Lyons has included Ohio State in his top 6. #GoBucks

Ohio State found out recently that the No. 1 receiver in the 2023 class would be visiting in April. The Buckeyes got more good news on Thursday when four-star tight end Walker Lyons trimmed his list with OSU making the cut.

Lyons is rated as the No. 4 tight end in the 2023 class and a top 100 prospect overall according to 247Sports composite rankings. The Folsom, California native comes in with excellent size at 6-foot, 4-inches, and 230-pounds.

The young man apparently also loves the capital city telling On3 his thoughts on Ohio State saying “Me and the coaching staff have built a very good relationship and I am super excited for the future. They are headed in a great direction and Columbus is amazing.”

The Bucks already have one tight end committed in the 2023 class by the name of Ty Lockwood, who is also a top-10 prospect at the position.

Joining Ohio State on Lyons’ shortlist is Alabama, BYU, Stanford, USC, and Utah.

Lyons is yet to set a date for a commitment, but for now, it’s good to know the Buckeyes are still in the running.
