The 6-foot-2, 284-pound prospect took an official visit to Columbus in June, one of several visits he made to Columbus in his recruitment. A few days ahead of the announcement, it’s unclear exactly which direction Carter is leaning, but while there’s been a lot of smoke with Miami over the past few weeks, there’s some cautious optimism Ohio State could end up being the pick on Thursday.
