SAN ANTONIO – As expected, four-star offensive lineman Earnest Greene will not be an Ohio State Buckeye.
After drifting away from the Buckeyes over the last few months, Greene committed to Georgia on Saturday at the All-American Bowl, picking the Bulldogs from a final four of Georgia, Alabama, Ohio State and Texas. Despite the Tuesday commitment of four-star offensive lineman Carson Hinzman, Ohio State still would have taken Greene’s commitment should he have picked the Buckeyes.
Greene is ranked as the 40th-best prospect and the second-best interior offensive lineman in the 2022 class, per 247Sports’ composite rankings. Ohio State is not expected to any additional offensive linemen in the 2022 class, so it will finish with four offensive line commitments: Hinzman, George Fitzpatrick, Tegra Tshabola and Avery Henry.
