WR Michael Thomas Official Commitment Gives Ohio State #13 In 2012

Game face

A week ago, we told you that wide-out Michael Thomas was just about set in stone to come to Ohio State. Now, that's been confirmed after his official visit to Ohio Stadium when the Buckeyes hosted the Badgers in a 33-29 upset win. After the game, Thomas said that he was going to announce his commitment officially sometime this weekend. Michael is currently enrolled at Fork Union Military Academy, with fellow Buckeye commit Cardale Jones.

Christian Bryant and Braxton Miller were the ones that hosted Thomas on his stay at Ohio State, and Thomas said that there were many reasons for staying,  as he was noting the tradition OSU holds with the country, and he knows there's a great opportunity to come in and start right away next year. Thomas is 6'4'', 200 pounds who runs great routes, and has outstanding explosiveness.

Ohio State's 2012 class of recruits is already a fantastic bunch, and Thomas is the 13th commit, with that number expected to rise to 18 by National Signing Day.
