Ohio State 2024 Illinois defensive end target to announce commitment on Monday

||

The dominoes of the official visit season are starting to fall and Ohio State is looking to capitalize on its efforts during that time.

One of the priority prospects is Illinois 2024 defensive end Marquise Lightfoot. The 6-foot, 5-inch, 225 pound edge rusher officially visited Columbus in early July and then he trimmed his list down with Ohio State making the cut.

Nothing has changed in that regard, as all of them are still favoring the Buckeyes and Lightfoot now has decided when he will make his verbal commitment this coming Monday and choose from six different schools.

The No. 68 overall player and 6th ranked edge defender told me earlier this year that the draw to Ohio State had a lot to do with defensive line coach Larry johnson.

If Lightfoot commits to the Buckeyes, they will add an extremely high-level pass rusher and keep the Illinois to Columbus pipeline open. He’ll be choosing between OSU, Alabama, Illinois, Georgia, Miami (FL), and USC.
