Kentucky offensive tackle Jager Burton didn’t think he was going to get an offer equal to an Ohio State offer until later in his recruiting process. He had received offers from Duke, Kentucky, Louisville and others, but a top Power Five program offering him this early in the 2021 cycle didn’t seem to line up with the path that his teammate, Clemson four-star offensive tackle commit Walker Parks, took.
But last week, his head coach pulled him into his office to give him the news of his Ohio State offer.
“He sat me down and told me about how all my hard work is being noticed and that The Ohio State University was going to offer me,” Burton told Eleven Warriors.
