Ohio State lands 4-star OT Max Wray

Max Wray was hotly recruited by SEC programs, but the Franklin, Tenn., native revealed Saturday he'll take his talents to the Big Ten and join Ohio State.

"With top programs like these, we knew it would be a tough decision. For me, the 'X' factor was the moment I walked onto the Ohio State Campus," Wray wrote in a statement to 247 Sports' Barton Simmons. " ... I didn't ever think I would leave the SEC but OSU is the place for me. I know we are going to win Championships (and) get the best recruits."

Wray is the sixth member of the ESPN 300 to declare his commitment to the Buckeyes for 2018. He is ranked 46th overall on the list, and seventh among offensive tackles.

The Franklin High School product is listed as 6-foot-6 and 275 pounds.
