The Ohio State Buckeyes continue to roll in the 2026 recruiting cycle, landing another huge in-state commit this week.
Four-star offensive tackle Sam Greer announced on Tuesday that he has committed to the Buckeyes via X.
Greer, a highly-touted recruit from Akron, OH, chose Ohio State over multiple power four schools, including Missouri, Tennessee, and Florida. He now becomes the second four-star offensive lineman in head coach Ryan Day’s 2026 recruiting class, alongside Maxwell Riley.
At 6-foot-6.5, 310 lbs., the big-time lineman already possess the frame for a tackle at the collegiate level. In addition to his strong build, Greer’s combination of size and athletic ability makes him a rare prospect. Despite missing time during his freshman and sophomore year at Archbishop Hoban High School, Greer easily projects as a developmental player with tons of potential.
Its been an amazing journey, grateful to have been surrounded by so many good people on my way, thank you to all the coach’s that have believed in me and helped to develop me I’ll be forever thankful. In the end I’ve decided to commit to THEE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY!!!🌰🌰🌰 pic.twitter.com/Txwl7c6FP4
