Bellflower, California, St. John Bosco four-star safety Jaiden Woodbey has been trying to make it to Columbus for almost a year now, but travel issues prevent that from happening until Ohio State's annual Junior Day last weekend.

The visit was supposed to be about meeting with coaches, seeing the facilities and getting an overall feel for campus. Blown away by everything he saw, Woodbey vowed to return later this spring.

Woodbey continued to reflect on the visit in the meantime, and the more he thought about it, the more he knew Columbus was the place for him. That's why he made the call and committed to Ohio State this evening.

The Woodbey File

  • Class: 2018
  • Size: 6-foot-2, 205 pounds
  • Pos: S
  • School: St. John Bosco (Bellflower, CA)
  • Composite Rating: ★★★★
  • Composite Rank: 3 (S)

The 6-foot-2, 205-pound Woodbey is considered the third-best safety and the No. 32 prospect overall in the Class of 2018. He picked the Buckeyes over finalists Nebraska, Oklahoma and USC.

Woodbey was the teammate of five-star offensive guard Wyatt Davis, who faxed in his National Letter of Intent to play at Ohio State last Wednesday.

He becomes the 3rd member of Ohio State's newly named Supreme '18 recruiting class, joining five-star quarterback Emory Jones and four-star running back Brian Snead.

Eleven Warriors will have more on Woodbey's pledge soon.
