Tyler Green Re-Opens Recruitment, Decommits from Ohio State

Tyler Green, a three-star defensive back from Maryland who committed to Ohio State in early June, has re-opened his recruitment tonight.

I've decided it's best to open up my recruitment process. I will no longer be attending Ohio St. Buckeye nation thanks for the gratitude.

A 6-foot-3, 195-pound safety/corner, Green earned a Buckeye offer on campus this fall when he impressed Ohio State defensive coordinator Chris Ash with his speed, size and versatility. He participated in Nike's The Opening in July and has been active recruiter for the Buckeyes since his pledge. 

Over the past few months, the conversation between Green and the Buckeyes has waned, and as a number of other defensive backs committed, Green and the Buckeyes decided mutually this evening to go their separate ways. 

"He's a good kid," one source at Ohio State said. "We wish him nothing but the best."
