Four-star Wide Receiver Jayden Ballard Commits to Ohio State
Four-star 2021 Massillon wide receiver Jayden Ballard has committed to Ohio State, he announced via Twitter on Friday.
Ballard had offers from schools like Michigan State and Notre Dame, but he seemed to be a near lock for Ohio State throughout the majority of his young recruitment so far, as Ohio State wide receivers coach Brian Hartline jumped into the mix quickly.
Ballard lives just outside of Canton, where Hartline grew up, and the 6-foot-2 wideout is a track star at Massillon, like Hartline was at GlenOak. The connection between the two was inevitable. Ballard just happens to be one of the top wide receivers in the country too.
