COLUMBUS, Ohio – Ohio State got its second verbal commitment in the 2015 recruiting class during Friday Night Lights when three-star defensive tackle Joshua Alabi of Detroit Cass Tech pulled the trigger in favor of the Buckeyes.

Rated by Rivals.com the No. 25 defensive tackle in the class, Alabi chose the Buckeyes over Michigan State, Wisconsin, Tennessee and Miami (Fla.).

The commitment isn't only big for Ohio State because it is adding another big body to the defensive line, but Urban Meyer has been trying to infiltrate Cass Tech, which was known as a Michigan pipeline not too long ago.

But Ohio State landed top cornerback Damon Webb in the 2014 class from the Technicians and have become a major player in the Detroit-area high school.
