Things are starting to gain a little steam when it comes to Ohio State football recruiting. The Buckeyes have picked up several commitments over the last couple of weeks, and just got another with the verbal pledge of four-star defensive tackle Damari Simeon. Out of St. Augustine Prep in Richland, New Jersey, Simeon fills a big need on the defensive line for the 2026 class, choosing the Buckeyes over the likes of Penn State, Michigan, and Texas.
We like to not only bring you the news of commitments when it comes to Ohio State but also provide some highlight video of the newest members of a recruiting cycle to give you an idea of what to expect. When it comes to Simeon, we found highlights from his sophomore season thanks to our friends at Hudl. In it, you can see the explosiveness and strength, even for a sophomore going against older offensive linemen at times.
Take a look for yourself to see how Simeon could fit into Larry Johnson’s plans once he makes his way to Columbus.
We’ll continue to bring you Ohio State recruiting news as the Buckeyes look to finish out their 2026 class, so come back often and stay in the know.
