2017 Four-Star Star Athlete Bruce Judson Kills Rumors, Says He's '100% to Ohio State'

Floridian four-star Bruce Judson is one of the most fluid athletic prospects in the entire 2017 class, and he's been committed to Ohio State since the immediate aftermath of the Buckeyes' eighth national championship.

However, it's a long way until National Signing Day 2017 for any program, let alone one trying to pull a talent like Judson out of a place like Florida.

On top of that, Judson's former Cocoa High School teammate, 2015's Jamel Dean, originally committed to Ohio State before suffering an acrimonious, post-Signing Day exit over medical clearance. Dean, who once dubbed himself "Mr. Ohio State," has since landed at Auburn and said he relishes an opportunity at his former teammate.

It doesn't require a social savant to connect the dots to potential turbulence to Judson's recruitment, and Florida schools were going to recruit him until the buzzer anyway. This was all before he took visits to non-OSU schools too.

Naturally, this led to speculation Judson may flip, but he seemed to explicitly put those rumors to rest today on Twitter:

Recruiting is an ever-changing arena – and it's still a long haul to February 2017 –  but there's a reason they call Urban Meyer "the Closer."
