What we have written about the linebacker job at Ohio State, beyond this class:
The top ranked uncommitted player in the country went where the forecasts said he would. The class stays at two linebackers, and every name still on the board is committed to another school.
Every forecast this site can read points to Oregon: one 247Sports Crystal Ball entry with no lead expert, a 94.1 percent Rivals team number, and two named Rivals analysts. Here is the whole record, the reason the date already moved once, and the one column on his 247Sports page where Ohio State is the only school with anything in it.
The Massillon Washington linebacker is the top uncommitted player in the 2027 class by Sports Illustrated's reading, and he has called Ohio State a dream school. The visit log on his 247Sports page names official trips to California, Georgia and Oregon, and not one to Columbus.
How this reads: every linebacker above is grouped by the position board.json lists for him, the same grouping the needs page counts and the commit board publishes. Nothing on this page is a new claim: it is the same verified rows, gathered by position instead of by date. Ratings and national ranks carry the date they were read on each recruit's profile.
