On Friday afternoon, during an appearance on CBSSportsHQ, four-star 2020 cornerback Clark Phillips III announced that he would be committing to play his college football for the Ohio State Buckeyes.
Phillips comes to Columbus as the 46th ranked player in this year’s recruiting cycle, and the fourth-best CB in the country. From La Habra, Calif., he is the ninth rated player from the large, football-rich state.
His commitment moves the Buckeyes to number five in the 247 National Rankings, and gives them an even more impressive stranglehold on the Big Ten’s top spot.
