The Hurry-Up is your nightly dose of updates from the Ohio State football recruiting trail, keeping tabs on the latest from commits and targets from around the country.

Jackson improving physically, ready to start season

When Ohio State landed a commitment from Donovan Jackson in January, Greg Studrawa and Co. were not just getting a standout lineman from an area (Houston) that the Buckeyes had not had a ton of success recruiting in the past. They were also getting one of the best overall talents in the entire country.

This spring, Jackson was bumped in his recruiting ratings into a five-star offensive lineman, having shifted from offensive tackle to offensive guard, where he is the top-ranked player at the position in America.
