Ian Moore, 2024 four-star offensive lineman, commits to Ohio State football
Each time Ian Moore visited Ohio State in 2022, he left impressed.
After the Buckeyes' season-opening game against Notre Dame, Moore said he had never been in a stadium with that many people, calling the fans "a little crazy." After Ohio State's win against Wisconsin, Moore thought the Buckeyes looked "scary good" up front."
"They just mauled anybody and everybody," he said.
That's why on Thursday, Moore announced his commitment to Ohio State via Twitter, saying he was "extremely blessed for this opportunity."
He chose the Buckeyes over Iowa, Wisconsin and a number of other programs.
