It's almost getting hard to keep track of all the positive recruiting news for the Ohio State Buckeyes and head man Ryan Day. Is another huge get on the way in the form of 5-star safety Bralan Womack? Signs are pointing in that direction.

For a while now, the Buckeyes have been putting in serious work to land Womack, who has countless teams going after him hard. In some good news for the OSU faithful, a new crystal ball pick has come in via 247Sports for him to make his way to Columbus. Obviously, this would be a huge get for Day and his staff:

Ohio State appears on the verge of landing 5-star safety Bralan Womack

The new CB pick on 247Sports just came in on Thursday. Womack is in no rush to make his decision, as the plan is for him to announce his program of choice on Aug. 22. Leading up to that big day, Ohio State, Florida, Auburn and Texas A&M are considered the leaders for the 5-11, 195-pounder.

Throughout his recruitment, the Mississippi product has picked up more than 30 offers. There's no surprise there, as he's ranked five stars, the No. 1 safety in the country and No. 12 prospect nationally per 247Sports. He's a top priority for Day and so many others.

While we're going to have to wait a little while for Womack to shut things down - should his August commitment date stand - it sure feels like the Buckeyes are in a fantastic spot to add him to what's an already impressive 2026 list.

Following the commitment of 4-star wideout Kayden Dixon-Wyatt, the Buckeyes hold the No. 3 recruiting class in the country. With 5-star linebacker Tyler Atkinson revealing Ohio State is his top school too, that's another elite prospect for everyone to keep a close eye on.

OSU's recruiting is on fire right now. Should we be surprised? Winning the natty leads to plenty of noise being made out on the recruiting trail. Landing Womack would be a monster recruiting win for the program as well.
