Five-star wide receiver prospect Tyjon Lindsey is back in the air right now, heading home from his three-day visit to Columbus to see the Buckeyes up close.

By all accounts, the trip to Ohio was a success for both parties.

“It was perfect,” Lindsey told Eleven Warriors. “My relationship with the coaches, how they're nothing but real to me, that has really stood out.”

Although he hails from Corona, California, more than 2,000 miles from Columbus, Lindsey has family in Southwest Ohio and is very serious about playing his college football for Ohio State.

A consensus top-20 prospect nationally, Lindsey has offers from every major program that matters: Oregon, Texas A&M, Alabama, USC, Auburn, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oklahoma and dozens of others. Lindsey doesn't plan to commit anytime soon, but expect the Buckeyes, Trojans and Aggies to be the leading contenders for his services.

Here's Lindsey sporting the Scarlet and Gray:
