Grant Schmidt's commitment to Ohio State makes him the fifth member of the Buckeye's 2015 recruiting class and the first from South Dakota. Schmidt has been a strong presence among the Eleven Warriors earlier this season, and now he has chosen to join the Buckeyes immediately following his second visit to the campus. With full support of his parents behind him, he is pleased with his decision. Schmidt told the players he loved what he saw at OSU and he thought Coach Warinner was incredible. He also got to know the various team coaches and the entire journey left him overwhelmed.
