Matthew Jones, No. 20 prospect in 2018, commits to Ohio State

Ohio State's top-ranked 2018 recruiting class got even better Saturday when two-way lineman Matthew Jones, the No. 20-ranked prospect overall in the class, committed to the Buckeyes.

Jones chose Ohio State over Penn State and several other schools. At 6-foot-4, 300 pounds, he is the No. 3-ranked offensive tackle in the class of 2018 but was recruited on both sides of the ball by many programs and could also line up at defensive tackle.

Jones, a 2018 Under Armour All-America Game selection, is the latest top prospect from Erasmus Hall in Brooklyn, New York, to head to Columbus following in the footsteps of Curtis Samuel and Jahsen Wint.
