With Chuba Hubbard and LD Brown entering their final season, and with last season’s in-season transfer of Jahmyl Jeter, the 2021 recruiting class figures to be an important one for OSU to reestablish depth at the running back spot.
Step one (potentially of many steps) in that goal accomplished.
On Wednesday the staff landed a commitment from Class of 2021 high school running back Jaden Nixon, a three-star recruit out of Lone Star High School in Frisco, Texas.
Nixon is a 5-foot-10, 170-pound speedster who picked OSU over Air Force, Army, Louisiana, Navy and a handful of other small schools.
