Ohio State Recruiting Roundup: Top Safety To Visit, Potentially Commit Next Week

The Ohio State Buckeyes are turning up the heat on the recruiting trail before fall practice starts, and it's already paying dividends. Here's all the latest news and rumors surrounding Ohio State's recruiting efforts:

Okudah to visit Columbus next week
Five-star safety Jeffrey Okudah (Grand Prairie, TX) named Ohio State his leader after visiting the school during the summer, and plans to make another trip next week - and he could make a commitment.

“I want to get another feel there,” Okudah said, via 247sports. “The last time I went there I wasn’t really in a commit stage. I was kind of trying to take everything in so maybe next time I come up there I can kind of soak things in more, see if I can see myself there for the next three or four years.”

Okudah is ranked as the top safety and No. 7 overall prospect in the country.

Ohio State offers DE
The Buckeyes offered a scholarship to four-star defensive end Jordan Williams (Virginia Beach, VA) on Friday.

The 6'5", 260-pounder is ranked as the No. 7 defensive end and No. 97 overall prospect in the country.

Urban Meyer making 2018 TE a priority
Ohio State offered a scholarship to 2018 four-star TE Mustapha Muhammad (Missouri City, TX) in April, and has seen been in constant contact with Urban Meyer and Ed Warinner.

“Coach Warinner wanted me to talk to him again,” Muhammad said, via 247sports.  “I called him and we had a great talk. He wants me to come visit with my family. I’ll get up there for a game. I want it to be for a good game. Maybe Michigan.

“Coach Meyer told me he loves my film. He said I’m one of the top tight ends in the country. I talk to coach Warinner kind of often too.”

The 6'4", 213-pounder can play either tight end or receiver, but the Buckeyes offered him as a tight end. He is ranked as the No. 8 tight end and No. 134 overall prospect in the 2018 class.
