Fields talked with 247Sports about a recent official visit to Columbus. Here’s what he had to say about Ohio State:
“I loved my visit to Ohio State. What stood out most for me was the tradition of the program and especially the cornerbacks,” Fields said. “They have two of the highest paid corners in the League (NFL) right now and the most 1st round Draft picks over the last 20 years.”
Fields is considered to be the No. 78 prospect in the country, as well as the No. 10 cornerback and the No. 8 player out of the talent-rich state of California.
