2025 cornerback Jordyn Woods flips from Cincinnati and commits to Ohio State.
Ohio State demolished Nebraska, 62-3, on Saturday night.
H-Back Curtis Samuel played a key role in the demolition. The former four-star product out of Brooklyn tallied 178 total yards and two touchdowns against the Cornhuskers.
On Monday, the Big Ten named Samuel Co-Offensive Player of the Week. The Buckeye-of-all-trades split the award with Michigan quarterback Wilton Speight, who compiled 326 yards and two touchdowns in a win against unranked Maryland.
