Buckeye Recruiting Week In Review

The week started on Friday as I posted a thread on the games last weekend involving the Buckeyes’ verbal commitments. Among the top performers was defensive end Tracy Sprinkle who had 5.5 sacks in Elyria’s win over Elyria Catholic.

On Monday morning I posted the latest edition of What I Am Hearing. In this edition I had information on a star 2014 prospect who was very impressed with the ESPN All Access series on Ohio State, a top wide receiver calling Ohio State after the Buckeyes defeated Miami of Ohio, a top cornerback who was impressed with the Ohio State “juice” and more.

It didn’t take long for Ohio State offensive coordinator Tom Herman to get in contact with 2014 receiver Mark Andrews after the Buckeyes’ first victory of the season.

Star Cleveland (Ohio) Glenville athlete Marshon Lattimore landed a scholarship offer from the Buckeyes last week. Lattimore is one of the top 2014 prospects in Ohio and had a spectacular start to his junior season. He says Ohio State is the offer he always wanted.
