Running back recruiting has taken center stage for Ohio State since the abrupt departure of Tony Alford to Michigan. That move has caused a setback or two on the recruiting trail, including with Santa Ana (CA) Mater Dei star Jordon Davison who won’t be making his initially planned visit to Columbus this weekend.
Instead, Davison will be in Ann Arbor, reconnecting with Alford at the University of Michigan. What does that mean for Ohio State’s chances? Will the Buckeyes still get a spring visit from the Top 100 prospect?
Is there another running back where the Buckeyes may actually benefit from Alford’s departure?
We have the answers to all of those questions, the latest on quarterback recruiting, and more in the latest edition of the Skull Session Recruiting Column.
