Ohio State Football Recruiting: Updated list of interior offensive line offers

Ohio State football has been on fire on the recruiting front over the past month plus. The Buckeyes wrapped up one of the highest ranked 2024 recruiting classes after landing Julian Sayin, the top ranked quarterback in the 2024 class who transferred to Ohio State from Alabama after Nick Saban’s retirement.

Among the recruits in the Buckeyes’ 2024 class includes three four-star interior offensive lineman Ian Moore, Devontae Armstrong, and Gabe VanSickle.

In the 2025 class the Buckeyes are yet to land a commitment from an interior offensive lineman, however they have 11 offers out.

We’ll walk through each of those using On3 who is one of the top college football recruiting resources that tracks player rankings on all four main websites and provides predictions, insights, and NIL valuations.
