The Ohio State football team got another commitment for its 2026 recruiting class on Tuesday night when 4-star edge rusher Khary Wilder announced his pledge to the Buckeyes. It was Larry Johnson’s first commitment in the class, one that OSU hopes will yield more top-tier talent on the defensive line.
We track every Ohio State commitment as they happen, but we also like to grab game film and share some highlights of what the next batch of OSU recruits might bring to the banks of the Olentangy. Wilder is ranked as the No. 248 prospect in the class and 23rd edge player in the cycle according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings, but if the Buckeyes wanted to lock him in, you can bet on them seeing even more than what the recruiting services see.
Here’s a look at Wilder’s junior high school highlights thanks to the fine folks at Hudl. In the film, you’ll see him play both on the edge and on the interior, but he’ll more than likely be developed as a defensive end at Ohio State. The ability to get off the ball with a quick first step is evident on the film.
We’ll continue to keep tabs on what Ohio State is doing as it lands more commitments in the 2026 class, so check back often to stay up to speed on what should be another dynamite crop of players.
