Ohio State Visiting No. 1 Portal Talent Caleb Downs
The Ohio State Buckeyes are making a push for the top talent in the NCAA Transfer Portal – Alabama Crimson Tide Safety Caleb Downs.
The Ohio State Buckeyes have made some serious noise in the transfer portal over the last month, adding three instant-impact Power conference commitments in QB Will Howard (Kansas State), running back Quinshon Judkins (Ole Miss) and offensive lineman Seth McLaughlin (Alabama).
And now, it appears that they are going to make a serious push for another one.
According to reports from On3, the Buckeyes are set to visit former Alabama safety and No. 1 overall transfer talent Caleb Downs, who entered the portal following the retirement of legendary head coach, Nick Saban.
The Georgia Bulldogs are also a top contender for Downs.
The former five-star has instantly become the hottest commodity in the portal upon entering. He was both SEC newcomer and freshman of the year and was also awarded the Shaun Alexander Freshman of the Year Award.
Last year as a true freshman with the Tide, Downs finished the season with 107 tackles, two interceptions, three pass deflections a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery.
