The Hurry-Up: CJ Heard Jr. will visit Ohio State on Thursday in hopes of receiving an offer and Lebbeus Overton will make an official visit to OSU on April 16.
Overton reclassified from the class of 2023 to 2022 in February and is down to Ohio State, Oregon, Georgia, Texas A&M and Oklahoma. The 6-foot-4, 265-pound prospect will visit Oregon this weekend, Georgia on March 20, Texas A&M on March 25 and Oklahoma will get the final visit on April 23.
A decision will come soon after his official visits are made, as Overton plans to enroll at his school of choice this summer. While Ohio State is certainly going to attempt to make the most of Overton visiting Columbus, the odds are the Buckeyes’ effort to land him is ultimately going to be in vain. Georgia or Texas A&M is the likely destination for the 18th-best player and fifth-best defensive lineman in the 2022 class, per 247Sports’ composite rankings.
After having a conversation with coach Alford I am honored and blessed to received a D1 offer from Ohio State
