With the departure of Curtis Samuel, Ohio State is looking to shore up its backfield in 2017. One of the earliest commits to the 2017 recruiting class, J.K. Dobbins, was an early-enrollee last month in an effort to get himself ready to compete for carries and catches in the fall. An all-purpose back projected to H-back at OSU, the La Grange, TX native is the second rated player at his position nationally and the 43rd player overall according to 247Sports Composite. Dobbins committed to continuing his academic and athletic careers in Columbus in March of 2016 and has been an outspoken Buckeye ever since.
