The Hurry-Up: Ohio State safety target Malik Hartford will make his commitment Wednesday and five-star DE Lebbeus Overton will commit somewhere other than Ohio State tomorrow.
The 6-foot-3, 175-pound Hartford will choose from a list of seven finalists that consists of Ohio State, Cincinnati, Michigan, Notre Dame, West Virginia, Kentucky and Michigan State. Less than a week before Hartford tells the world his decision, the Buckeyes are in great shape to land the 154th-ranked player and the 11th-best safety in the 2023 class, per 247Sports’ composite rankings.
Hartford received his Ohio State offer while making an unofficial visit to Columbus on Jan. 22. The Buckeyes have since risen quickly in Hartford’s recruitment, in large part because of his relationship with OSU safeties coach Perry Eliano, who was Hartford's lead recruiter when he coached at Cincinnati.about Ohio State at the Under Armour Next camp on March 20."Coach Eliano is a great coach and the overall program . It's a top three program in the country. They're always good.
Hartford has also spoken numerous times with defensive coordinator Jim Knowles on his visits to Columbus and via phone.Hartford made 58 tackles and recorded two interceptions last season for Lakota West, while he also had six blocked kicks on special teams. He could become the third Buckeye from Lakota West in a two-year span, as 2022 signees Jyaire Brown and Tegra Tshabola were both teammates with Hartford at Lakota West.
Should Hartford pick the Buckeyes, he’ll be the sixth overall commit and the fourth in-state product to give his verbal to the Buckeyes in the 2023 cycle. He’d also become the second safety commit in the class, joining four-star Florida safety
