DE Jack Sawyer (All B1G)

Jack Sawyer weighs feelings on Ohio State
Three times this season, Pickerington North 2021 5-star defensive end Jack Sawyer made a visit to Ohio State. His most recent, when the Buckeyes hosted Michigan, was a little different than his previous stops. It was a unique experience watching Ohio State throttle the Wolverines in the manner that it did.

“I don’t think anyone expected Ohio State to come out and play lights out like that,” Sawyer told Lettermen Row.”I think they came out with that fire and were kind of pissed off, and it just backs up that [Buckeyes defensive line] Coach [Larry] Johnson is obviously one of the best at what he does.”

The country’s No. 3-ranked prospect spent time talking to the coaching staff, as expected. He also spent a lot of the day with another local prospect in the Class of 2021.

“I talked to a lot of the coaches, pretty much everybody,” he said. “Then I was kicking it with one of my best friends who goes to Pickerington Central, Lorenzo Styles.”

Styles doesn’t yet have an Ohio State offer, but there’s a good chance he ends up with one. The class of 2021 is unique and already has at least three Ohio State-caliber talents in the Columbus-area with Sawyer, Styles and Dublin Coffman 4-star safety A.J. Kirk. Ohio State fell short with the state’s top prospect in the Class of 2018 and are fighting hard to stay afloat with Zach Harrison in 2019, and those two recruitments have given them a reason to try and push a bit harder for an early decision from Sawyer, a player it believes could lead a recruiting class.

“They’ve actually talked to me before about how I could be that guy to build a class there since I’m a local kid and all,” Sawyer said. “They talk to me about being that special player you see every so often, and how that could lead to building that class.”

To this point, the 6-foot-5, 240-pound sophomore isn’t biting. He’s very high on the Buckeyes, but he is also intrigued by a pair of their biggest rivals: Michigan and Penn State. That being said, he doesn’t see a scenario yet where his recruitment lasts much beyond next spring.

“I love a couple other schools right now as well,” Sawyer said. “This winter and spring I’m going to visit everywhere and then take a week off and see where I feel like was best for me.

“I just feel like making a decision right now is a little too early in the process for me.”
