Lisle is #5 for 2013
Urban Meyer's 2013 recruiting class added its fifth member tonight, as Centerville OT Evan Lisle has committed to Ohio State per BuckeyeGrove.com's recruiting guru Marc Givler.
Lisle is widely-regarded as the best offensive lineman in the state of Ohio and is a major commitment for the 2013 class. Once his long-awaited offer finally came through from Meyer last Wednesday it was widely assumed that his commitment would be imminent. Tonight, he ended the speculation and phoned his future head coach with the good news.
Lisle had scholarship offers from Alabama, Michigan, Notre Dame, Miami and numerous other schools who were interested in his services.
We'll catch up with #5 for 2013 soon and will have a full story posted here at ElevenWarriors.com.

Congrats Evan; we can never have too many linemen (O or D). He looks like another great pickup for the Bucks; a future impact player!

great pick-up by the Urban Train!
what's up with Lovell Peterson ? Last I heard he had OSU and Bama on top ... it'd be great to add him, too

And now Jim Bollman would be done recruiting for 2013.
You mean Bollman would have recruited OLs in the first place?
Lisle isn't a guard-- which probably means Bollman would have told him no need to come down for the spring game

Our class will be better than scUM's when it's all said and done. A mix of top Ohio talent and some studs from around the country.
Fantastic then
vacuuming sucks
Anyone know how his last name is pronounced? Lyle? Liz-le?
It's Lie-l, like Lyle
Thanks. Now I can correctly boast to the Mitt-chigan fans I know.
Welcome Evan! Gotta love the centerville kids.
Run_Fido's favorite word is strawman.
Welcome aboard the Buckeye Nation Evan - you are going to have a GREAT 4 years here at OSU!!!
I'm guessing Braxton has had the biggest grin on his face since Urban was hired and it just keeps getting bigger!!!
The best thing about Pastafarianism? It is not only acceptable, but advisable, to be heavily sauced
Nice. Looking forward to a solid OL class. It's gonna be weird having a viable, Big Ten caliber two deep across the OL. No more underperforming five stars backed up by freshmen with MAC offers and walk-ons.
Welcome aboard Evan!!!!

Yessir! Another solid addition to the team.
Huge get. His list of offers is very telling.
It's nice to see us compete and win these recruits against the Alabamas, etc. of the world. Refreshing, seemed like we lost most of the time before Meyer.
Welcome to Buckeye Nation, Evan!
Wow, this kid has amazing foot work!
