Ohio State didn’t just beat Indiana on Saturday, they also played host to a very solid group of high school prospects.
Taking in the Buckeyes victory over a very feisty Hoosiers squad were numerous of Ohio State’s top upper and underclassmen targets.
While Urban Meyer and the Ohio State coaching didn’t walk away from the weekend with a verbal commitment from any of the recruits who made it to Columbus, they did seem to help themselves climb up the latter of some of their leader lists.
Want to know who the Buckeyes had on campus? Land-Grant Holy Land has your back. Below is a little rundown of just some the recruits who made it to Columbus over the weekend:

Quick Hits
- Thad Matta’s basketball staff also had a solid recruiting weekend. Making the trek to Columbus from Virginia, three-star class of 2017 point guard Braxton Beverly was on campus for an official visit. Even though OSU is yet to offer Beverly, the former Miami (OH) verbal pledge holds offers from George Washington and others.
- Will Tate Martell walk away with another Player of the Week award or will another future Buckeye take it home this go around? The poll is now open. Let your voice be heard and vote for the Land-Grant Holy Land MVP.
