Ohio State OWNS Pennsylvania

Ohio State continues to pluck top recruits outside of the state of Ohio after LB Dorian Bell (#1 SLB-Scout.com) and RB Jordan Hall (#18 RB-Scout.com) committed to the Buckeyes following the spring game. Both of these blue-chip athletes hail from Pennsylvania and both are continuing a trend of Jim Tressel dipping outside the Ohio borders. In addition, Maryland CB Darrell Givens (#9 CB-Scout.com) committed over the weekend giving Ohio State a total of 11 verbals for the 2009 Recruiting class.
