Four-star OL Liam Andrews includes Buckeyes in top 8
Ohio State offensive line coach Justin Frye continues to put in work on the recruiting trail.
No, the second-year offensive line coach didn’t land his fifth commit of the cycle, but he is keeping the Buckeyes in the race for an elite four-star offensive lineman.
Four-star interior player Liam Andrews, a product of the Dexter School (Brookline, Massachusetts) has narrowed his list to eight schools.
The 6-foot-5, 270-pound Andrews is down to the following schools: Penn State, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Florida, South Carolina, LSU, Miami, and Oklahoma.
Andrews, who ranks as the No. 77 player in the On3 Industry Ranking and is the No. 1 interior offensive lineman in the country, had this to say about Ohio State when he trimmed the list to eight schools.
“Ohio State has been great at producing NFL talent and is consistently in the national football playoffs,” he told On3’s Hayes Fawcett. “I have a good relationship with the staff there as well.”
Justin Frye and the Buckeyes already have four offensive linemen committed in the class of 2024. Liam Andrews keeping them in the battle for his pledge is certainly a positive sign toward potentially landing a fifth.
ICYMI: Buckeyes quarterback predictions for this fall
The past shows an incredible recent history for Ohio State at the quarterback position.
The present and future both show plenty of promise from extraordinary talents.
C.J. Stroud is off to the NFL to become a star, leaving a Heisman-sized hole in the Ohio State offense. Can Kyle McCord or Devin Brown live up to the sky-high expectations placed on them? Who will be the future of the program?
Ohio State enters this fall with question marks at quarterback, but they’re all good questions and issues to have. Lettermen Row is wrapping up off its first position week of the summer with three predictions for the revamped and reloaded Ohio State quarterback room.
