Ohio State is in the top group for a 5-star running back in the class of 2023.

On Sunday, Richard Young included Ohio State in his top 7 with Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Oklahoma, Oregon and Texas A&M.

Out of Lehigh Acres in Florida, Young is listed at 5-11, 200 pounds and rated the No. 2 running back and No. 19 prospect overall nationally in the class of 2023 on the 247Sports Composite. The Lehigh Senior standout has 52 scholarship offers. Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Michigan State, Nebraska, Penn State, Rutgers and Wisconsin are among the schools that did not make the cut.

As a junior, Young rushed for over 1,700 yards and 19 touchdowns. Highlights from that season can be viewed below, via Hudl:
