Depending on the watch Akron Archbishop Hoban 2026 CB Elbert Hill ran 4.3 or 4.4 today at @BOTMWCombine. #OhioState and #PennState a couple programs making an early impression but he’s excited about everyone. #Oregon the latest to offer. https://t.co/SJId9uUbum pic.twitter.com/JKEccdLYEA

Next in line: Elbert Hill
Ohio has been good to the Buckeyes when it comes to secondary talent. Recently guys like Marshon Lattimore, Gareon Conley and Denzel Ward certainly fit the narrative and are huge reasons as to why Ohio State has been so successful. Specifically looking at who could be next in line, the Buckeyes have already offered Akron Hoban product Elbert Hill in the 2026 class, and are wasting no time in making sure he feels like a top priority.

A 5-foot-10, 175 pound athlete, Hill currently has well over 20 offers to his name from the likes of Miami, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oregon, Tennessee, and USC, among many others. Unranked right now, it’s only going to take an update to the 2026 class by 247Sports to see him listed right at the top of not only the Ohio rankings, but likely nationally as well for his position group.

Taking a trip to Ohio State on Tuesday, Hill took time to see the Buckeyes in spring ball, and was able to chat with current players like Lathan Ransom and Caleb Downs. A pretty clear recruiting pitch, you’d have to think this staff is all in on showing Hill that he’s next in line. Wwile it’s a major accomplishment to see so many offers in the fold, there’s no reason to leave home for his college career.

Surely not the last trip for Hill to Columbus, this recruitment is just starting and will be one worth paying close attention to for the long haul.
