Buckeyes chase top running back as Georges prepares to decide

Five‑star recruit David Gabriel Georges visits Columbus ahead of July 22 announcement

A highly anticipated recruiting weekend is set to unfold in Columbus as David Gabriel Georges, a five‑star running back from Baylor School in Tennessee, steps onto the Ohio State campus.

A pivotal weekend for the Buckeyes

The visit comes at a critical juncture for the program, which is viewed as the front‑runner for the talented prospect. Georges has said his decision will be announced on July 22, and the outcome could shape the next chapter of Ohio State’s offense.

Coach Ryan Day has been vocal about the program’s ambition to add a premier back who can make an immediate impact, emphasizing the university’s track record of developing rushers into game‑changing players.

Beyond Columbus

After his Columbus stop, Georges plans to take official visits to Tennessee, Ole Miss and Georgia, a schedule that underscores the breadth of his considerations.

Ohio State’s current 2027 class already boasts a top‑10 ranking and 12 commitments, positioning the program to maintain its momentum as the recruiting cycle progresses.

If the Buckeyes secure Georges, it would not only reinforce their offensive identity but also signal a continued commitment to attracting elite talent from the Southeast.
