Ohio State is still in the running for an elite offensive lineman with Mason Short once again making cuts to his list of potential destinations.
Originally committed to Alabama, Short opted to reopen his recruitment following Nick Saban’s retirement and the hiring of Kalen DeBoer. A 4-star recruit, Short holds 15 offers including some of the top programs in the country, and he is now down to a new top 4 list.
On Friday, Short included the Buckeyes alongside Georgia and Kentucky from the SEC on his list. Clemson out of the ACC is the other program in the mix, but Alabama was left on the outside looking in.
