2018 DE Alex Williams flips from West Virginia, commits to Ohio State per report

When five-star prospect Brenton Cox decommitted from Ohio State, it left a big hole in the Buckeyes 2018 recruiting class at defensive end.

Fast forward a few weeks, and Urban Meyer and company might have found a local prospect to help fill the void left by Cox.

Per reports, Pickerington North standout Alex Williams is reportedly flipping his commitment from West Virginia to Ohio State. A Mountaineer pledge since May, Williams has decided his chance to suit up in the Scarlet and Gray was just too much to pass up and is now a future Buckeye.
