Ohio State Defensive Tackle Commit Eric Mensah Hoping to See a Change in Himself After His First Semester of College

On Tuesday, it finally hit Ohio State defensive tackle commit Eric Mensah that he would be a Buckeye soon.

The 6-foot-3, 290-pound three-star prospect from Virginia had an in-home visit from Ohio State head coach Ryan Day and defensive line coach Larry Johnson. Mensah called it a surreal experience.

“It was really good,” Mensah told Eleven Warriors of his in-home visit. “It was an experience I haven’t really had with my coaches, just having the head coach coming to my house was memorable. It was really fun, I loved it.

“It actually did hit me (that I’m going to college soon), I’m not going to lie.
