Four-star Riep rolls with Ohio State
RELATED: Analysis of Riep's commitment to the Buckeyes
CINCINNATI - Ohio State's recruiting momentum continued on Saturday afternoon with another big pick-up as the Buckeyes landed a pledge from in-state defensive back Amir Riep. The 6-foot, 180-pound prospect out of Cincinnati Colerain chose the long favored Buckeyes over Michigan State and Alabama, becoming the second Rivals250 commit in the 2017 class in as many days.
Ohio State had appeared to take a stranglehold on Riep's recruitment in recent weeks after multiple camp visits, including Friday Night Lights yesterday. Riep chose Saturday to make his commitment as it is his 18th birthday.
