Ohio State’s biggest recruiting month of the summer has begun.
The first of seven camps for high school football players is taking place on Wednesday at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center. Over the next 21 days, Ohio State will host thousands of high school football prospects hoping to earn an offer from the Buckeyes or at minimum, get some valuable coaching from members of OSU’s coaching staff.
Ohio State is set to also host more than 30 official visitors over the next four weeks, and those visits will be important to the Buckeyes’ chances of landing commitments from some of their top targets in the 2023 recruiting class.
To preview the entire month to come, Eleven Warriors recruiting analyst Garrick Hodge joins us for the first half of this week’s episode of Real Pod Wednesdays. In more than 30 minutes of recruiting talk, we discuss who we’ll be watching at the camps and his choices for the five most important official visitors of the month. And if you like #BOOMs, you’ll want to hear Garrick’s prediction for how many commitments Ohio State will land between now and Fourth of July weekend.
Later in the show, Dan and Griffin talk about what Ohio State men’s basketball needs to accomplish on the recruiting trail this summer. We also share our thoughts on what we heard on the radio last week from Chris Holtmann and Ryan Day and on Ohio State playing a second home night game in September against Toledo.
