Eric Mensah is A Defensive Tackle Project with the Tools to Develop Into Impactful 3-Technique

Better Know A Buckeye is our look at every member of Ohio State’s 2024 recruiting class and how they became Buckeyes as they prepare to begin their OSU careers this fall.

In arguably the quickest recruitment of the cycle, Eric Mensah went from not being offered by Ohio State after camping in Columbus during the summer of 2023 to receiving an offer and flipping his commitment to the Buckeyes within the first few weeks of last season.

Mensah, the No. 90 defensive lineman (No. 795 overall) in the 2024 class, brings plenty of size and depth to Ohio State's interior defensive line as the only defensive tackle in the Buckeyes’ 2024 recruiting class.
