Although there has been some not-so-great news for [autotag]Ohio State[/autotag] recruiting the last few days, the beat goes on. Plenty of eyes should be on Columbus as the draft-eligible Buckeyes participate in Pro Day, giving the coaching staff more ammo for prospects who want to play at the next level.
Spring visits are happening almost every day and on Tuesday, Tennessee athlete, [autotag]Eli Owens,[/autotag] was on a visit that resulted in a scholarship offer from [autotag]Ryan Day[/autotag] and the Buckeyes.
Owens can play on both sides of the ball but most likely will end up as a tight end in college.
After an outstanding visit, I’m beyond blessed to receive an offer from THE Ohio State University!!!!! 🔴⚪️ @CoachKee @NCEC_Recruiting @NatlPlaymkrsAca @supermax100_ @alcoafootball @scoop1914 @OhioStateFB pic.twitter.com/O9GndS7tg4
