Ohio State closing in on nation’s top CB

Ohio State’s 2020 recruiting class is gearing up to be one of the best in school history. With six verbal commits, the class sits at No. 3 in the 247Sports Class Rankings and is atop the Big Ten conference.

The Buckeyes have already earned a commitment from one of the country’s top defensive back prospects in safety Lejond Cavazos (Bradenton, FL / IMG Academy). OSU will certainly be looking to add more depth in the secondary and it appears that help could come in the form of the country’s top cornerback prospect.

Five-star CB Elias Ricks (Santa Ana, CA / Mater Del) is a familiar name among Ohio State recruiting circles.
