Ohio State makes top ten list for top 2022 cornerback

Ohio State has been included in the top ten released by one of the top 2022 defensive backs out of Mater Dei High School.

It’s no secret Ohio State has been one of — if not the best — at churning out defensive back talent over the last decade or so. Even just this past NFL draft, the Buckeyes had two taken in the first-round with Jeff Okudah and Damon Arnette’s selection on day one.

Because of that, OSU always seems to be in the mix for some of the best back-end high school talent out there, and we have a case of that for another top defensive back in the 2022 class, the 6-foot, 1-inch, 185-pound Domani Jackson.

According to a Twitter video released by the No. 2 rated corner and twelfth overall recruit in the country according to the early rankings by 247Sports own specific metrics, Jackson has his top ten schools in mind, and Ohio State is one of them.

The other schools include, Texas, Alabama, Michigan, Clemson, LSU, Oklahoma, Georgia, USC, and Arizona State.

The video was released on July 4 and has a pretty cool theme of fireworks exploding into each team’s logo. We’ll keep an eye on this one, but there’s obviously a long way to go before the elite prospect out of national powerhouse Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, CA needs to make a decision.

Longhorns make the top 10 for the 2nd-ranked CB in the country

The number two ranked cornerback from the 2022 class, Domani Jackson has released his top 10. Longhorns among the final teams.

The Texas Longhorns and defensive backs coach Jay Valai have been quite busy as of late. They recently secured the commitments from three separate four-star defensive backs from the 2021 recruiting class. They recently made the top 10 of the second-ranked cornerback in the 2022 cycle, Domani Jackson.

Two New Notre Dame Football Offers Out Today

The Irish were busy today inside the 2022 class, offering a prospect on each sides of the coast.

It’s been a busy recruiting day for the Irish, not all of the news has been good. Long sought-after North Carolina running back Will Shipley spurned Notre Dame and chose Clemson this afternoon, but that will not deter Brian Kelly and his staff from getting back on the horse.

In a span of about a minute, both class of ’22 stars Domani Jackson of California and Virginia’s Aiden Gobaira tweeted out verbal offers from the Irish staff. Starting with Jackson, the 6’1” and 185-pound corner has a very impressive offer list at this early juncture listing USC, Alabama, Georgia, LSU and a host of others.

Jackson was recently named a 5-Star by Rivals and at this early is wide open in his recruitment. Although he currently resides in California, Jackson is originally from the Midwest, having lived in Ohio, Pennsylvania and then Hawaii before his family settled in California. It has been noted he wouldn’t mind heading back to the area for college and with offers from Ohio State and Michigan it will be a hard-fought recruiting battle with the other Midwestern powers.

Gobaira’s recruitment hasn’t been as crazy as Jackson’s, he reports just a few offers including instate Virginia and Virginia Tech along with Penn State, Vanderbilt and Duke. The sophomore defensive end has a great frame at 6’5” but needs to add serious weight, as he weights just 200 pounds at the moment. Gobaira on projection alone has those offers, just imagine when he fills out and learns better technique. Judging by his offer list, Gobaira won’t have any issues with the rigorous academic Notre Dame schedule either.

It is still very early in both of these recruitment’s, as neither has put out a top list of school yet. A long ways to go for either player, but getting their attention at this early stage of the process can be seen as nothing but a positive sign for Kelly and the Irish.
