The 6-foot-7, 289-pounder is considered the fourth-best offensive tackle and No. 57 prospect overall in the Class of 2018. He picked the Buckeyes over finalists Alabama, LSU and Tennessee.
Wray and his family took a three-day trip to Columbus last week, their first since the Buckeyes offered him a scholarship last month.
“[The visit] was first class,” Sam Wray told Eleven Warriors. “They're definitely among the leaders. The people there, the need for tackles, the personality of the coaching staff... It just clicked.”
The former Georgia commit wasn't expected to make a decision until May, but made the call on Saturday ahead of the annual Spring Game — even though he wasn't in attendance.
“Took us by surprise,” the elder Wray said. “Urban Meyer is very persuasive.”
Wray becomes the sixth member of Ohio State's 2018 recruiting class, joining five-star defensive tackle Taron Vincent, four-star dual-threat quarterback Emory Jones, four-star safety Jaiden Woodbey, four-star running back Brian Snead and four-star all-purpose back Jaelen Gill.
Eleven Warriors will have more on Wray's commitment soon.
