USA TODAY INCLUDES BUCKEYES IN PRESEASON ALL-USA TEAMS
USA Today released its 2019 ALL-USA Preseason high school selections on offense and defensethis week, and several Buckeyes were included.
Headlining the group on offense were Paris Johnson Jr. and Julian Fleming, but Luke Wypler was also included from the 2020 class. Marvin Harrison Jr. was listed for the 2021 class as well. On defense, Ohio State commits Clark Phillips and Jack Sawyer were featured. Five-star cornerback Elias Ricks, No. 1 2021 cornerback Tony Grimes and five-star 2021 athlete Emeka Egbuka were included.
It’s difficult to name All-USA teams teams, so the task was a mighty one to take on for USA Today, but as far as how to look at these selections from an Ohio State standpoint, there are a few observations.
While it seems obvious, Julian Fleming and Paris Johnson Jr. are the cornerstones of this class, and it’s clearly being perceived that way on a national level too. These two commitments will be the ones that kickstart the Ryan Day Era in Columbus, and it’s important that they’re being recognized as such at this point in time.

JULIAN FLEMING
During Julian Fleming’s three years at Southern Columbia, the Tigers have lost just one game, as they went 47-1 with two state titles. Fleming was a large part of that success. He’s compiled 183 receptions for 3,942 receiving yards and 55 touchdowns. He’s already rewritten Southern Columbia’s record books, but he has an opportunity to make those records unbreakable.
First Game: at Hammond, Aug. 25
Game to Watch: vs. Mt. Carmel, Aug, 31
Mt. Carmel was one of the best teams on Southern Columbia’s schedule in 2018, but th eTigers still downed them, 41-7. Coming off a 10-3 season, Mt. Carmel will likely have some of the most momentum against Southern Columbia, though it looks like Southern Columbia will be on its way to a third consecutive state title.
