Ohio State Buckeyes Secure Four-Star Running Back Commitment
COLUMBUS, Ohio – The Ohio State Buckeyes bolstered their 2025 recruiting class on Wednesday with the addition of four-star running back Anthony “Turbo” Rogers. The announcement came on National Signing Day during a ceremony in Alabama, where Rogers, previously committed to Alabama, ultimately chose the Buckeyes over Georgia.
Ranked as the No. 148 overall prospect, the No. 9 running back in the nation, and the No. 10 player in Alabama by 247Sports composite rankings, Rogers stands at 5-foot-8 and weighs 190 pounds. His unique skill set allows him to excel in a hybrid role, capable of contributing both as a runner out of the backfield and as a slot receiver. Known for his exceptional speed and athleticism, Rogers can effectively navigate between tackles, although his versatility opens up various offensive strategies for Ohio State.
With Rogers joining the ranks alongside fellow recruits Bo Jackson and Isaiah West, Ohio State’s 2025 class now features three running backs, potentially increasing the team’s scholarship count to five if Quinshon Judkins declares for the NFL Draft. Offensive coordinator Chip Kelly views Rogers as a dynamic asset in the offensive lineup, describing him as one of the most versatile players coming to Columbus.
As Ohio State continues to build its future roster, fans and analysts alike are eager to see how Rogers’ skills will shape the team’s offensive dynamics in the seasons to come. Stay tuned for more updates on the Buckeyes’ recruiting efforts, as Cleveland.com will provide ongoing coverage of National Signing Day and beyond.
