Four-star 2026 Safety Simeon Caldwell Commits to Ohio State

Ohio State keeps rolling on the recruiting trail.

Four-star Florida 2026 safety Simeon Caldwell, the nephew of Tim Walton, committed to Ohio State Thursday, giving the Buckeyes their ninth commitment of the 2026 class and the second safety in the cycle.

Matt Guerrieri and Walton continue their torrid stretch of recruiting this week, considering they landed the No. 1 safety in America, Blaine Bradford, on Monday.

Per 247Sports' composite rankings, Caldwell is considered the No. 95 prospect and No. 7 linebacker (he'll likely play safety at OSU) in the 2026 class.

This is a breaking news story and will be updated.
