Ohio State Offers Angelo Smith, Lands 2028 RB

Ohio State has offered a scholarship to Angelo Smith, a three-star safety and younger brother of star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, after his strong camp performance. Jeremiah Smith, who helped lead Ohio State to a national championship as a freshman, celebrated his brother's offer, but the two likely won't overlap on the roster due to Jeremiah's draft eligibility in 2027. The Buckeyes are also engaged in a high-profile recruiting battle with Michigan and Penn State for four-star edge rusher Jackson Ford. Additionally, Ohio State secured an early verbal commitment from Elijah Hall, a standout running back in the 2028 class. These moves highlight Ohio State's ongoing efforts to secure top talent and maintain national prominence. The Buckeyes continue to reinforce their reputation as a powerhouse in college football recruiting.
