You weren't the only one who spent a little time traveling over the holiday weekend. Following in the footsteps of quite a few former and current Buckeye stars, a majority of the class of 2015 verbal commits hit the road on Sunday to check into one of the many High School All-American games.
Having the chance to play in one of these annual events is something every high school recruit dreams about. While some very talented prospects didn't make the cut, a long list of future Buckeyes will get that opportunity in either the Under Armour, U.S. Army, or Semper Fidelis All-American games next weekend.
