In early February, Luke Montgomery had an epiphany.
After a lengthy recruiting process, the four-star Ohio offensive tackle decided who he was going to play college football for. So, Montgomery burst into his parents’ room to let them know he made up his mind.
“I said, ‘It’s time for me to wrap this up,’” Montgomery said.
The 6-foot-5, 270-pound prospect told his mother and father he’d be committing to the team he grew up rooting for: Ohio State. His parents were shocked he decided as early as February, but were also slightly relieved. His father, Mike, thought his eldest son would make more visits before wrapping up his recruitment.
