Additionally, Odom picked Ohio State over Oregon, USC, UCLA, and LSU. He stands in at 6’4 and weighs 285 lbs, he is a phenomenal pass rusher who loves to create chaos for quarterbacks. Odom showcases great power and strength. He has good fundamentals and is athletic enough to create outstanding plays in the backfield.
He has great finesse moves and will be a problem for offensive lines. Under the development of Larry Johnson and LaAllan Clark, Odom could be a future Buckeye legend. Both coaches played a role, I spoke with Odom about the two and this is what he had to say, “Goat and Future goat.” Clark has played a huge role in recruitment.
With the commitment of Odom, the Buckeyes continue to push for a legendary defensive haul. He joins five-star CB Devin Sanchez, five-star CB Na’eem Offord, four-star S Faheem Delane, four-star EDGE Zahir Mathis, four-star LB Tarvos Alford, four-star EDGE London Merritt, four-star CB Deshawn Stewart, three-star S Cody Haddad, and three-star LB Eli lee. The Buckeyes are not close to done, as they are tearing it up on the recruiting trail. Odom has made it clear that he wants five-star OT David Sanders Jr to be a Buckeye as well, he told me that is his top target.
