Ohio State University's running back recruit, Jordon Davison, recently opened up about the departure of Tony Alford, the Buckeyes' former running backs coach, and shed light on the status of his upcoming spring visit to Ohio State.
Davison, a highly sought-after running back from Mater Dei in Santa Anna, California, was offered a scholarship by the Buckeyes during their spring game in April 2023. Since then, he has maintained communication with Alford, with the coach even visiting Mater Dei in February to meet Davison.
However, news broke on Wednesday that Alford had accepted a coaching position at Michigan, becoming the Wolverines' running backs coach. This development left Davison with a decision to make, as Michigan had also extended a scholarship offer to him.
When questioned about Alford's move to Michigan and its impact on his interest in Ohio State, Davison spoke to Bucknuts.com. The talented running back acknowledged the situation but did not disclose any decision regarding his interest in the Buckeyes.
Davison's visit to Ohio State, scheduled for March 27 to April 1, will provide him with an opportunity to assess the program without Alford's presence. The four-day visit will likely play a crucial role in determining Davison's commitment to the Buckeyes or potential interest in Michigan.
With top-tier running back talent like Davison on their radar, Ohio State will undoubtedly work to impress him during his upcoming visit. The coaches and staff will aim to highlight the university's football program, facilities, and overall environment.
As the young running back weighs his options, the college football world eagerly awaits his decision. Both Ohio State and Michigan fans will be intently following his visit and evaluating the impact of Alford's departure on Davison's recruitment process.
The outcome of Davison's visit to Ohio State could shape the future of the running back's collegiate career and potentially add an intriguing chapter to the storied rivalry between the Buckeyes and the Wolverines.
Only time will tell where Davison ultimately chooses to continue his football journey.
