One of Ohio State's top 2023 defensive end targets is getting closer to making a decision.
Late Wednesday evening, Derrick LeBlanc put out a top seven containing Ohio State, Clemson, UCF, Florida, Miami, Penn State and Oklahoma. The 6-foot-4, 250-pound defensive lineman also hinted a decision could be coming soon.
LeBlanc was offered by Ohio State in July 2020, then visited Ohio State three times over the summer. Some in the recruiting industry expected LeBlanc to be the first member of Ohio State's 2023 recruiting class, but a commitment never came and he did not return to Columbus for a game visit last fall.
