Ohio State has made five new offers to prospects in the 2025 and 2026 classes in recent days.

An Ohio State defensive end target has locked in an official visit. A few weeks after he was offered by defensive line coach Larry Johnson, three-star Kentucky prospect Javeon Campbell confirmed he’ll take an official visit to OSU on May 31.

Campbell racked up 14.5 sacks in just seven games for Western Hills High School (Frankfort, Kentucky) last year in just his second season of playing the sport.
Jared Curtis commits to Georgia
At one point in January, Ohio State looked to be the perceived frontrunner for five-star 2026 quarterback Jared Curtis, the No. 1 ranked signal caller in his cycle. Ohio State then made two separate offensive coordinator hires between Bill O’Brien and Chip Kelly, and the traction with Curtis never got fully back on track.

Curtis committed to Georgia on Saturday, ending his recruitment for now. Of course, there’s a long way to go between now and National Signing Day for the 2026 class, so it’s always possible this recruitment could have more twists and turns before all is said and done.
