Ohio State added a big-time talent to the mix Saturday at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl, as athlete Jeffrey Okudah committed to play for the Buckeyes.
Wayne McGahee III of the Tallahassee Democrat relayed Okudah's pledge to the Buckeyes.
According to Scout, Okudah is a 5-star recruit who is regarded as the No. 1 athlete and No. 12 overall prospect in the class of 2017.
The 6'1", 190-pound star played both safety and wide receiver at South Grand Prairie High School in Grand Prairie, Texas, but his defensive exploits are what generated the most interest across the nation.
