Newest Ohio State Commit Chose Buckeyes Over Michigan, Michigan State Due to Academics

Ohio State pulled another elite prospect out of Michigan yesterday in the form of 2016 four-star OL Michael Jordan.

For Meyer, it was another victory over new nemesis Jim Harbaugh, which will no doubt soothe the sting of losing Ohio's top 2016 offensive linemen to Notre Dame.

For Jordan, however, the decision that went beyond a century-old blood feud. 

"Ohio State's a great school, and I committed there because of academics," Jordan told Mark Snyder of Freep.com today. "I wanted to major in international business and minor in Chinese, and Ohio State has both of those," he added.
