Scarlet Sunrise: Four Buckeyes make Walter Camp preseason All-American team
Good morning, Ohio State fans, and welcome to the Scarlet Sunrise. Football will always be our focus, but every day we’ll cover news, notes and analysis from across Buckeyes sports. Join us each morning to get caught up on everything you missed in the world of Ohio State football, recruiting, basketball and more in Scarlet Sunrise.
Four Buckeyes make Walter Camp preseason All-American team
Ohio State has goals every season: Big Ten title, College Football Playoff, national title.
The Buckeyes didn’t reach those goals, but the goal posts for success aren’t moving in large part due to their returning superstars. And four of them are officially on the first preseason All-American list of the summer.
Buckeyes running back TreVeyon Henderson and wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba were both named preseason first-team All-Americans by the Walter Camp Football Foundations. Another pair of Buckeyes, tackle Dawand Jones and kicker Noah Ruggles, were second-team selections.
Quarterback C.J. Stroud was not on the list. He was beat out by Alabama’s Bryce Young and USC’s Caleb Williams for the two quarterback spots.
ICYMI: Four-star Buckeyes defensive line target sets decision date
One of the top defensive line targets on the Ohio State recruiting board won’t be uncommitted much longer.
Four-star Carver (Columbus, Georgia) defensive lineman Darron Reed wrapped up his official visit to Ohio State on Sunday, and he set a decision date shortly after. He’ll make his announcement next Monday — on July 4.
Reed certainly hasn’t eliminated the Buckeyes from contention.
“After my official visit, I am still very high on Ohio State,” Reed told On3’s Chad Simmons. “The staff made me feel very important this weekend, they showed me their plan for me, and Ohio State is still up there.”
Reed will decide between Ohio State, Auburn, Clemson, LSU, and Miami on the holiday.
Buckeyes quarterback target down to five schools
Memphis (Tenn.) Lausanne Collegiate School four-star quarterback Brock Glenn is one of the top uncommitted quarterbacks left in the 2023 cycle, and he is closing in on making a decision.
Glenn said the five schools he is considering are Auburn, Florida State, Mississippi State, Ohio State and TCU.
“The next step is just sitting down with my family as a whole and talking, listen off our pros and cons to each program, really getting to understand where I’m at with each of them, just narrowing it down, and then trying to make a decision here as fast as possible,” Glenn told On3. “I really wanted to make a decision before the Elite 11 on June 28. But if I’m not comfortable committing by then it will be shortly after that.”
Glenn is the No. 382 overall recruit and No. 21 quarterback in the 2023 On3 Consensus.
His most recent official visit was to Ohio State this past weekend.
