We've been hinting around it for a few weeks but now it's official, Tate Martell will visit Ohio State this weekend.

He's expected to be arriving in Columbus on Saturday and likely will be in town until Monday, giving the Buckeyes an excellent chance to solidify their standing in his recruitment.
The country's top-ranked dual-threat quarterback, Martell visited Ohio State at the end of March for the first time, taking in the Buckeyes' campus with his father and grandfather. This trip, Martell should have the entire family in tow, underscoring the importance of the visit.
There's almost zero chance that Martell will commit this weekend but it's not a coincidence that the Buckeyes are the first stop on his summer tour. A lot of scuttlebutt recently about a potential decision being made at The Opening has created a bit more excitement about this visit as the 5-foot-10, 205-pounder has created a top-7 school list that he's cut down twice in the last week, eliminating Miami and West Virginia from his original list.
Eleven Warriors will have more on Martell's upcoming visit in Wednesday's The Hurry Up.
