3-star 2020 offensive tackle Trey Leroux commits to Ohio State

As the 2019 Ohio State Buckeyes football team begins the second week of their spring practice, the 2020 recruiting class picked up a very large commitment, and I mean that literally. As 6-foot-8, 320-pound offensive lineman Trey Leroux has pledged to play for the Buckeyes beginning next fall.

The Buckeyes offered the mountain of a prospect on Sunday afternoon, and the o-lineman didn’t waste much time making his decision public. Leroux was in Columbus as his brother competed in the Ohio high school state wrestling championship, a perfect opportunity to get some one-on-one time with head coach Ryan Day.

According to recruiting services, Leroux is considered the 38th best player in the state, and is currently rated as a three-star prospect. However, since Day will need upwards of five or six lineman in the 2020 class, locking down a solid in-state commitment early seems to fit the new coach’s pledge to refocus recruiting efforts on in-state talent.
