This weekend, the Buckeyes welcomed double digit official visitors on campus for the second weekend in a row.

Three of those visitors happened to be offensive linemen, a position group that Ohio State is looking to make a splash in this recruiting cycle. Those trio of recruits were four-star prospects Carson Hinzman, Jaylen Early and Joe Brunner.

For Hinzman, he arrived in Columbus without an offer from the program, but it did not take long for that to change. The top-ranked center on Rivals.com spoke with BuckeyeGrove about how his visit went, receiving an offer from the staff, where tOSU stands in his recruitment, and much more.

"It was really, really good," Hinzman said. "To be honest with you, we kind of went into Ohio State with not much of an expectation because we didn't really know much about it or talked with the coaches about it. We were pretty freaking blown away. It was pretty awesome being there."

It is somewhat unusual for a recruit to officially visit a school without an offer in hand, but that's what transpired with Hinzman. According to him, Ohio State wanted to get to know the Rivals100 prospect before giving him the green light.
