Asked about his reason for committing, Offord had this to say about the Buckeyes program (via On3):
Just felt like they were the best fit for me to come in and compete with the best of the best getting developed by a coach who has been around the game for a long time. … I’m closest with coach DuHart and coach Walton. We have an amazing relationship where we talk almost everyday about football and life.
Offord’s pledge to Ohio State already gives them a top three recruiting class in 2025 after landing fellow five-star CB Devin Sanchez and four-star DB Blake Woodby.
