The Ohio State Buckeyes have spent a pretty good chunk of the last few months looking for a linebacker or two to fill out their 2019 class. They have two recruits, Craig Young and Cade Stover, that could fill that role, but after losing Kane Patterson, the Buckeyes want at least one more true linebacker. For most of the time they’ve been looking, they haven’t found much in the way of true linebackers that are interested in Ohio State, and Ohio State caliber.
We saw them offer in-state linebacker Jestin Jacobs, and Iowa commit, a couple weeks ago, and I do think he’ll eventually be a Buckeye, but it seems like another option came open Monday, as Tommy Eichenberg announced his decommitment from Boston College.
