It was a surprise to many when 2025 cornerback Dorian Brew left Ohio to continue his high school career in Texas, but the distance wasn’t going to stop Ohio State from recruiting him.
The tenacity paid off on Thursday, as Brew, a 6-foot, 2-inch and 185-pounder, named his top-10 schools. The Buckeyes made this cut, as did some of their Big Ten rivals Michigan, Penn State, and soon to be Oregon.
The competition will be fierce for the No. 4 cornerback and 21st overall player in the country according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings. Ohio State has one advantage that the other schools don’t, Brew’s mother Donica was a track star of the Buckeyes and is a member of the Ohio State Athletics Hall of Fame.

Brew’s father, Derrick, won a Bronze medal in the 2004 Olympic Games in the 4×400 relay, so the family is full of high-level athletes. The hope is that the Buckeyes can get Dorian to return to Columbus and join his mother’s alma mater.
