Ohio State football offers 2025 California linebacker

At this point in the 2025 recruiting cycle, Ohio State football is looking to build one of the nation’s top classes.

It already has seven commits, many of them ranking as some of the best prospects in the country. The Buckeyes are clearly after more, and on Thursday evening offered another top player. California linebacker, Abduall Sanders Jr., was the latest prospect to get an OSU offer following the likes of Alabama, Notre Dame, Michigan and a host of others.

Sanders Jr. isn’t as highly ranked as some of the other targets, but that is a bit deceiving considering his offer list. He’s currently ranked as the No. 46 linebacker and 426th overall prospect according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

California is a talent rich state, one that annually produces a good amount of high end collegiate players. Sanders Jr. fits that mold and now Ohio State has official turned up the heat on him.
