Another top weapon is set to arrive in Columbus, Ohio it seems.
On Sunday, four-star RB Isaiah West announced his decision to commit to “The” Ohio State University where he’ll attempt to be the next in a long line of outstanding Buckeyes running backs: “THE Ohio State! I’m home!” West tweeted.
He joins what’s expected to be a loaded OSU class for Ryan Day in 2025.
The St. Joseph’s Prep star chose Ohio State over the likes of Wisconsin, North Carolina, Michigan State, Kentucky, South Carolina and Penn State.
West decommitted from UK back in May after taking an unofficial visit earlier in the year.
According to 247Sports scouting director Andrew Ivins, West has the potential to be a difference-maker in Scarlet and Gray:
Muscled-up running back with a favorable blend of suddenness and power … Might lack a true top-end gear, but hits the gas with a heavy foot and is able to maximize yardage after contact. Could pick his lanes a little quicker, but will make dynamic cuts to evade tacklers near the line of scrimmage and then again at the second level. Tends to embrace his role in pass protection and is capable of moving the chains via swing and screen passes with his soft hands. Should be viewed as a potential impact player at the Power Four level that can shine near the goal line and convert third downs.
It’s a good day to be a Buckeyes fan.
