As expected, Bellaire, Texas, Episcopal five-star defensive tackle Marvin Wilson announced on Twitter late Monday evening he'll take an official visit to Ohio State for this weekend's game against Michigan.

It will be Wilson's third official visit, as he attended the Buckeyes' 45-24 win at Oklahoma in September and Florida State's loss to Clemson last month.

The 6-foot-4, 329-pounder is considered the top-rated defensive tackle and the No. 3 prospect overall in the Class of 2017. He's missed time this season with a torn meniscus, but currently holds more than 25 offers from schools such as Alabama, Florida State, LSU, Oklahoma, Texas and USC.

Ohio State already has one of the top defensive line hauls for this year's cycle with Cincinnati Winton Woods' Jerron Cage and Las Vegas, Nevada, Bishop Gorman's Haskell Garrett already in the fold, but the Buckeyes are actively looking to add another tackle. 

South Jordan, Utah, Bingham four-star defensive tackle Jay Tufele will also be on an official visit this weekend.
