Edmond Santa Fe standout defensive end Trace Ford announced Wednesday night his plans to make his college commitment on Aug. 31, the day after OSU’s season-opener against Missouri State.
Ford is a three-star prospect who has close to 20 scholarship offers in total. He has OSU in his recently released top-8 that includes Arkansas, OSU, Cal, Arizona State, Baylor, Florida State and Oregon.
Ford hasn’t come out and named a favorite, but Arkansas and OSU are believed to be the current frontrunners, with Baylor lurking as a darkhorse. He visited Arkansas several weeks ago for the Woo Pignic, and I’m told he visited OSU in early June.
