New 2015 Football Commit

[Deleted]

Jacksonville (Fla.) Trinity Christian High School 2015 free safety/strong safety prospect Ben Edwards committed to the Buckeyes today.

Rivals rates him 4 Stars, #149 player in the country and #5 Safety in the country.

Other offers included Auburn, Stanford, UCLA, North Carolina, Missouri, Notre Dame, Penn State, Northwestern, Vanderbilt and many others.

He's got a solid head on his shoulders...4.1 GPA.

From what I've heard he is a great athlete that loves to hit.

All I know about him is what I've read here. Sounds like a good kid. And, happy to have him.

Very good commit. 2nd commit from Florida already in 2015!

He plays on the same team that had 3 other players Ohio State offered(one from 14, two other from 15(same class).

Great offer list, LOVE IT! Big time hitting safety. Was Matt Elam & Major Wright at Florida while Meyer was there or after?


Edwards mention CHRIS ASH a lot about his commit to tOSU.

#Buckeyes newest commit Ben Edwards talked about his relationships with Tim Hinton and Chris Ash playing the largest role in his decision.

Have spoken to newest #OhioState commit Ben Edwards already. New #Buckeyes assistant Chris Ash has made his mark with this one.

Dude can HIT! And get a lot of flags thrown at him. LOL

But physical player, I'll take those in my defensive backfield.

Report that Edwards teammate 2015 4* OLB Jeff Holland is very interested in Ohio State. Offered already by Ohio State and every major SEC team you can think of. Holland visited Ohio State past June with 2014 prospect who went elsewhere.

But Ohio State already has 2 Florida commits in 2015 and he knows both of them(Edwards being his teammate). It would be great if Ohio State could go down to Florida and get 3 highly recruited players from there in 2015 class.

Correction: Holland told OSU commit Jamel Dean OSU was his leader two weeks ago. Before teammate Edwards committed. That's very interesting.
