Tyleik Williams
DT Tyleik Williams (.9295) committed to the Buckeyes on August 27. When he arrives on campus, he will be the first player from Manassas, VA to ever be listed on an Ohio State roster.

This little series follows the rankings of Ohio State's 2021 commitment class.

It is always interesting to see the ups and downs that each player's ratings will take between now and the first Wednesday of February.
