Out-Of-State Players to Watch

Ohio State signed two California QB's in 1997, Austin Moherman and David Priestly.

I can't believe I forgot Priestly.

Let's not forget Michael Wiley, JaJa Riley, Ryan Williams, Mark Johnson, and Grant Schwartz. EDIT: Tyrone Morrison, an LB from San Diego.

I'm sure that there have been others.

Ohio State has never had a great presence in California.

Also, Ken-Yon Rambo, Mark Garcia (JUCO), Darrell Lewis, Girmar Johnson, Kenny Green, Paul Breed (JUCO), Nicky Sualua, Garrett Shea, James Cotton (JUCO), Ron Paulsen (JUCO), Rowland Tatum, Ricky Johnson, Robert Murphy

Cotton was from Cleveland if I'm not mistaken, as a matter of fact. He went to Collinwood.

Ohio State recruiting: State Secrets, 7/8
Although '15 WR Lawrence Cager does not yet hold an offer from Ohio State, that doesn't mean he's not interested in the Buckeyes. Cager is reportedly waiting for an offer from the coaching staff, which would propel Ohio State to the top of Cager's list. This isn't all that surprising, despite Cager holding offers from schools such as Boston College, Cincinnati, Duke, Illinois, Indiana, N.C. State, Oklahoma State, Oregon State, and Virginia, among others.

Despite ranking as the the 16th best prospect overall in the state of Maryland, Cager is still pretty high on Ohio State, and the Crystal Ball still favors the Buckeyes (60 percent) over new Big Ten members Maryland (20 percent) and Rutgers (10 percent). If Cager is going to earn an offer from coach Meyer, there's no better time to prove his worth to the coaches than at Friday Night Lights, which Cager is planning to attend.

Barton Simmons Bolt
Four-star linebacker Josh McMillon has set a date to make his college decision. The Memphis (Tenn.) Whitehaven standout tells 247Sports that he will make his college decision on Aug. 22 at his high school, likely at 1 pm CT.

Currently Alabama is considered the favorite according to the 247Sports Crystal Ball with more than 70 percent of national experts predicting him to end up in Tuscaloosa. McMillon announces his decision date shortly after visiting Alabama. He has also visited Michigan, Ohio State and Vanderbilt this spring and has also been high on Auburn throughout the process.

McMillon is ranked by the industry generated 247Sports Composite as the No. 16 outside linebacker in the country.

Which Top 2015 WR is Hoping to Earn an Offer at FNL?
Lawrence Cager grew up rooting Ohio State. The 6-5, 210 pound receiver from Maryland, was a huge fan of Troy Smith and he is one of the main reasons why he is a Buckeye fan. He also liked the USC Trojan teams of the 2000′s, and what is not to like? They won almost every game during that era and were the most dominant team during that time. Cager is one of the best receivers in the nation and might be playing for one of those teams in the future. He is rated by 247sports as the #151 player in the nation, which he says is a huge honor but he is not satisfied with that. Cager is working to be the best. Last week, Cager was able to showcase his talents on national television at The Opening at Nike’s headquarters.

Lawrence Cager Loves Ohio State

“The Opening was a lot of fun,” Cager said of the event. “The best of the best was there playing against each other and competing. I thought that I performed very well against the competition. Overall, it was a lot of fun to be there.”

Cager is hoping to take the things he learned at The Opening and showcase them at Ohio State’s Friday Night Lights. He is hoping that with a solid performance, he could get an offer from Ohio State. It is the offer that he wants the most. He loves everything about Ohio State. He talked to me a little bit about why he is so intrigued by Ohio State. “I grew up rooting for Ohio State,” said Cager of why he likes Ohio State. “I loved Troy Smith, he was my favorite player. I also really like Coach Zach Smith, Larry Johnson, and Urban Meyer. All of them are great guys. Urban Meyer always has a winning program and I love that.”

Before he receives an offer, he knows that he needs to perform well in front of the coaches. He is very eager at the chance to do that and is getting ready for the camp. He told me that he can’t wait to compete at the camp and prove to the coaches that he is a great receiver. He recently took a trip to Alabama and camped there, and he feels that they are close to offering also. Alabama is another offer that he really wants. He is hoping for the same at Ohio State Friday Night Lights. Ohio State is at the top for Cager and he has made no secret about it. I asked Cager what he would like to say to Buckeye nation and he told them, “Watch out for me! I am going to ball out at FNL, and if I play at Ohio State, I am going to make a huge impact.” Cager should get an offer after the camp.

Davis sets Ohio State visit
Highland Springs (Va.) wide receiver Felton Davis III is set to visit Ohio State this week.

"I just got off the phone with Ohio State," said Davis. "I'm visiting on Tuesday. If all goes well, hopefully, I'll be coming home with an offer."

The 6-foot-3 wide receiver cut his list to 10 schools earlier this month.

Louisville, Miami, Michigan State, Missouri, Nebraska, Vanderbilt, Virginia, Virginia Tech, West Virginia and Wisconsin were his finalists in no particular order.

If Ohio State does offer, expect the Buckeyes to immediately into the mix.
