Ohio State Recruiting News: Buckeyes Land Commitment From 4-Star OL Matthew Burrell

The Ohio State Buckeyes' 2015 recruiting class is now almost full, thanks to Urban Meyer and the program landing a huge commitment for the future of the team's offensive line.

Per Ari Wasserman of the Northeast Ohio Media Group, "Ohio State accepted a verbal commitment from four-star offensive tackle Matthew Burrell of Woodbridge (Va.) C.D. Hylton, one of the top remaining targets on the Buckeyes' recruiting board."

Burrell is rated as the #5 offensive guard in the class of 2015 by 247Sports, which is odd because he is actually a tackle. Regardless, Burrell turned down scholarship offers from LSU, Penn State, Florida State, Tennessee, and others to come to Columbus.

The four-star tackle officially visited Ohio State during the Buckeyes' loss to the Virginia Tech Hokies in early September along with five-star Virginia defensive end Josh Sweat. Burrell was also on an official visit to State College when Ohio State beat Penn State in overtime.
