Late last month, the Ohio State Buckeyes put out a key offer in the 2022 recruiting cycle. Chris Holtmann and his staff decided to offer 2022 prospect Jarace Walker.

Walker comes out of Bradenton, Florida and is one of the elite prospects in the 2022 class, ranking as a five-star prospect and the top power forward in the class per 247Sports. The recruiting site lists him at 6-foot-8 and 220 pounds. Along with Ohio State, he also has offers from schools including Auburn, Florida State, Houston, Illinois, and Maryland among others.
Ohio State currently has three commitments in the program’s 2022 recruiting class and fans are certainly hoping Walker will be the fourth addition. Ohio State’s class is already ranked first nationally by 247Sports and another pickup would make things even stronger. However, we will have to wait and see as it’s still very much in the air. He currently has no Crystal Ball predictions on 247Sports.
