What many had felt was inevitable became reality just moments ago: Fort Lauderdale's Trevon Grimes, one of the country's top-ranked 2017 wide receivers, has committed to Ohio State.
The Buckeyes had been the frontrunner for Grimes for over a year and the Indianapolis-native made his decision public on Monday morning.
Grimes, the 15th-ranked overall prospect in 2017, holds offers from the likes of Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, LSU, Michigan and a number of others top programs from across the country.
The Buckeyes maintained their lead throughout the process thanks in part to a multi-pronged recruiting approach: Urban Meyer, Zach Smith and virtually the entire coaching staff made Grimes and his family a priority.
