Breaking news:Five-Star QB Demerick Morris Commits to Ohio State Over Alabama and Georgia
In a major recruiting victory, five-star quarterback Demerick Morris has officially committed to Ohio State, choosing the Buckeyes over powerhouse programs Alabama and Georgia. Morris, widely regarded as one of the top quarterbacks in the 2025 recruiting class, made his announcement on Sunday, sending shockwaves through the college football world.
Buckeyes Land Their Next Star QB
Morris, a 6-foot-4, 215-pound quarterback from Houston, Texas, has been a coveted prospect for years. Known for his elite arm strength, quick decision-making, and mobility in the pocket, he has drawn comparisons to former Ohio State standout C.J. Stroud. His commitment is a massive win for head coach Ryan Day and his staff, who have continued to dominate on the recruiting trail.
“This was one of the hardest decisions of my life,” Morris said during his announcement. “Alabama and Georgia are amazing programs, but at the end of the day, Ohio State felt like home. The coaching staff, the culture, and the way they develop quarterbacks really stood out to me.”
Beating Out SEC Giants
Alabama and Georgia were both heavily involved in Morris’ recruitment, with Nick Saban’s Crimson Tide and Kirby Smart’s Bulldogs pushing hard for his commitment. Alabama, known for developing NFL-caliber quarterbacks like Bryce Young and Tua Tagovailoa, made a strong pitch. Meanwhile, Georgia, fresh off multiple national championships, was looking to add Morris as the next elite signal-caller in their system.
Despite the SEC schools’ efforts, Ohio State’s quarterback-friendly system and track record of producing first-round NFL picks played a crucial role in Morris’ decision. The Buckeyes have developed top QBs like Justin Fields, Dwayne Haskins, and Stroud, all of whom have gone on to the NFL.
What This Means for Ohio State
With Morris now in the fold, Ohio State’s 2025 recruiting class gets a major boost. His commitment not only strengthens their future at the quarterback position but also makes the Buckeyes even more attractive to other top offensive recruits.
Morris is expected to compete for the starting role early in his career, though he will first have to battle it out with current and future Ohio State quarterbacks. If he lives up to the hype, he could be the next great Buckeye QB to lead Ohio State to a national title.
For now, Ohio State fans can celebrate a massive recruiting victory, as the Buckeyes add yet another elite talent to th
eir quarterback room.
