Ohio State football recruiting has been going strong, with the team making progress in securing top talent for future seasons. However, there is some disappointing news to report. Ziyare Addison, a highly sought-after offensive tackle recruit from the class of 2025, has committed to a rival Big Ten school, Oregon.
Addison was one of the final five choices for Ohio State, alongside Georgia, Michigan, and UCLA. Despite many Buckeye fans hoping to see him in scarlet and gray, he ultimately made the decision to join the Oregon Ducks. While this outcome was anticipated by many and may have been influenced by his recent visit to Eugene, it is still a setback for some Buckeye fans.
Recruit commitments are notoriously fluid, especially in the current college football landscape and with the introduction of name, image, and likeness opportunities. Many commitments can flip right up until signing day, so there is still hope for Ohio State fans that Addison may reconsider and join the Buckeyes.
