In an interview with the Sun-Sentinel, Battle said he’s still firm in his commitment but knows things may change over the coming days and weeks.
“I still feel strong about it,” Battle told the Sun-Sentinel. “I’m going to see how things play out right now, but right now, I’m still a future Buckeye.”
Several prominent programs are still speaking with Battle, including Alabama, Florida, Miami and Oklahoma. the 4-star safety said he will continue to be in communication with those programs, as well as Ohio State.
Battle is a native of Fort Lauderdale, Florida and attends St. Thomas Aquinas. He’s ranked as the 12th-best safety in the 2019 recruiting class, and is a top 25 player out of Florida. According to 247Sports, Battle is No. 162 overall among 2019 recruits.
