The 20192020 and 2021 classes are loaded and primed to make some big-time commitments to colleges all across the nation over the next few years. PBR Ohio is committed to bringing insightful information on big-time commitments as well as providing a spotlight on the top uncommitted prospects.

Jones: Ohio State Commitment 'A Dream Come True'

MASSILLON - “As soon as I walked on the campus I fell in love.”

The Thursday visit to Ohio State turned into a college commitment a day later for Trent Jones.

“Ohio State is the school I’ve always wanted to go to since I was little,” related the Jackson sophomore. “My family are die-hard Ohio State fans.”

The decision by Jones came after previously taking a visit to Wright State.

“I checked out the campus,” Jones reflected. “The coaches there were great guys that I so much respect. They gave me a great offer.”

But becoming a Buckeye was too much to pass up for Jones, who had also been in contact with Dayton and Kent State during a recruiting process that progressed quickly after strong performances at the Northern Ohio Prospect Games and The Buckeye Elite Tournament last year.
