Roker picks the Buckeyes over Iowa and Miami. He is about 6’1 and weighs 170lbs, and has very solid athleticism being a two sport athlete. Roker can also lay the boomstick if he needs too, but he has great coverage skills and is a ball hawk at safety. He has great awareness and is a speedster.
With the commitment of Roker, Ohio State adds a final touch to the safety class, joining four-star Jaylen McClain. He brings an athletic, fast, intelligent safety to the safety room. His athleticism and speed is a huge part of his game. He has a bunch of potential and upside, especially being from Florida, where he has continued to play high-level competition throughout his high school career.
