COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State hung onto a 2025 linebacker commit as Tarvos “T.J.” Alford stuck with his commitment to the Buckeyes on National Signing Day. In a recruitment that had many late swings, the Vero Beach, Florida, native opted to stay with his original commitment despite a late push from Miami.

Here are the five-star signees Ohio State landed a year ago: Ohio State finished 2024 with the fifth-best class in the country, behind Georgia, Alabama, Oregon and Miami, according to 247sports.com. Ohio State coach Ryan Day will hold a signing day press conference at noon at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center.

It's early signing day and Florida State football is hoping to add significant reinforcements to its roster through high school recruitment.
