Key Ohio State 2023 Recruit Flips Commitment to Alabama

One of the top high school tight ends in the nation is having a change of heart about where he wants to play college ball.

Ty Lockwood, a four-star recruit from Independence High in Thompson’s Station, Tenn., has decommitted from Ohio State and instead pledged his services to Alabama.

Lockwood had been the first player in the class of 2023 to accept a scholarship offer to Ohio State when he initially committed to the Buckeyes last August. Now, just shy of a year later, he’s making plans to compete in the SEC instead of the Big Ten.
