For the second year in a row, the Buckeyes have pulled off a huge recruiting coup. 5-star linebacker Dorian Bell of Gateway announced his commitment to Ohio State this afternoon. That gives the Buckeyes #1 player in the state of Pennsylvania (again) and one of the best linebacker prospects in the country (again).Dressed in all Buckeye gear, Bell told the media he felt like he "never left home" on his visits to Columbus. Bell had offers from top programs around the country, including Florida State, Penn State, Tennessee, Rutgers, Michigan, and Notre Dame. He projects as a strong side linebacker, but could play the weakside.
Bell is listed as the #22 player in the country by Rivals.com and #7 overall by Scout.com. As usual, we go out of our way to discount ESPN's recruiting rankings.
