Ohio State and a few other schools thought they had a legit chance at landing 5-star Georgia linebacker Sammy Brown when he scheduled a number of official visits.
The Buckeyes were supposed to host the 14th overall player and 2nd ranked linebacker according to the 247Sports composite, later this month. That visit is up in the air now after Brown verbally committed to Clemson on Monday afternoon.
The 6-foot, 2-inch and 230 pound hard-hitter had just visited the Tigers over the weekend and it looks like that was the only trip that Brown needed to take. Undoubtably, most schools that believed they had a chance at the 5-star will continue to recruit him.

The Buckeyes currently have two verbal commits on defense in their 2024 recruiting class, both players being linebackers but Brown was still a priority recruit for Ohio State.
