Ohio State football is one of the most prestigious places to play in the country, and it creates an almost unparalleled atmosphere for its games at Ohio Stadium.
While making it a fun experience for recruits, the Buckeyes also have some of the top names at the NFL level, often opening the door for an avenue to get to the highest level in the sport.
That’s likely part of what initially attracted former five-star recruit Quinn Ewers to Ohio State. Ewers originally was the No. 1 recruit in the Class of 2021 and then was the No. 2 prospect in the transfer portal when he opted to leave Ohio State after his first season in Columbus.
Originally from Texas, the Longhorns seemed like a perfect fit, but he has no regrets about that initial decision
“I learned a lot while I was there,” Ewers said via The Columbus Dispatch’s Bill Rabinowitz. “Coach Day and C.J. (Stroud) and that whole room was awesome to be around. I’m super thankful for that time I got to spend there. I don’t regret any decision I made on going (there).”

The Buckeyes and Longhorns will square off in the Cotton Bowl on Friday, so Ewers will face his former head coach on one of the brightest stages in college football.
Let’s just say all parties should be ready for what will undoubtedly be a terrific battle between two of the best teams in the country.
