Ohio State lands commitment from in-state 2022 OL Tegra Tshabola

West Chester (Ohio) Lakota West offensive lineman Tegra Tshabola becomes the second member of the Buckeyes' 2022 recruiting class

On Wednesday evening, Ohio State got some big news, as Louisiana cornerback and former Cincinnati-native Jyaire Brown gave his verbal pledge to the staff, becoming the first member of the Buckeyes' recruiting class of 2022.

On Thursday, the Scarlet and Gray doubled up their 2022 class, landing a commitment from current Cincinnati-area native, Tegra Tshabola, out of Lakota West in West Chester, Ohio. The 6-foot-6, 315-pounder announced the news on social media.

It's no surprise that Tshabola ultimately picked Columbus as his future home, as he told BuckeyeGrove back in late November that Ohio State was his number one school following his visit to campus for the Penn State game. It was a bit of a surprise in terms of the timing of this pledge, as it was expected that the talented lineman, who had offers from LSU, Florida, Michigan, Penn State, and USC, among others, would explore his options a bit longer.

But, as Tshabola mentioned in his Tweet, he decided to end the process, giving the Bucks their second commit for the class in as many days. Although its early, OSU currently ranks second in the Rivals Team Rankings, right behind LSU, who has four pledges at this time.

Tshabola is currently a 4-star with a 5.9 rating, and is in the early top 100 for 2022 per Rivals. Stay tuned to BuckeyeGrove for more on this commitment.
