The biggest news of the past week came late Wednesday night, when Ryan Watts III confirmed he decommitted from Oklahoma.
The four-star 2020 cornerback, a 6-foot-2, 187-pounder who had been committed to the Sooners since April, is looking like a prime candidate to fill the last spot in Ohio State’s defensive backs class — the Buckeyes will continue holding a spot for Elias Ricks, but that still looks like more of a pipe dream than a real possibility.
Watts told Eleven Warriors he wants to make another visit to Ohio State for its game against either Wisconsin or Penn State before making a final decision, but he seems like a good bet to come to Columbus, where he has visited twice in the last three months and was in the Shoe for the Miami (Ohio) game Sept.
