Friday Night Lights will be huge for the Buckeyes. Take a look at a few of the top recruits that will be there: https://t.co/Gt3XDssQlZ— Land-Grant Holy Land (@Landgrant33) June 30, 2016
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS VISITOR LIST TAKING SHAPE Friday Night Lights is still a few weeks away and the lists of potential visitors are always extremely tentative, but the 2016 edition is already shaping up to be quite the recruiting extravaganza. At this point, virtually all of Ohio State's top remaining targets are expected to be in attendance as Tate Martell and other commits will be helping the staff in rolling out the red carpet in Columbus. While we've been keeping a running list on the recruiting board, just the recent additions are enough to get excited about. Earlier this week, Cleveland wideout Jaylen Harris confirmed with 247Sports that he is planning to attend. Harris' recruitment has been a bit of a strange one of late as many expected him to already be a part of the Buckeyes' 2017 class. With Trevon Grimes, Tyjon Lindsey, and Donovan People-Jones still out there, this could prove to be an important visit for the four-star. Speaking of wide receiver targets, a relatively newer name is also now expected to be in Columbus that weekend. Oak Ridge, Tennessee's Tee Higgins, another five-star pass-catcher, has been discussed a few times but an appearance at Friday Night Lights may make him one to keep a close eye on moving forward. As is the case with any out-of-state prospect like this, actually getting them on campus is always tough. The crystal ball for the 6-foot-5, 190-pounder is currently split between Tennessee and Clemson. Looking ahead to 2018, one of the nation's top defensive backs is also expected to make the trip. Jaiden Woodbey received a Buckeye offer just two shorts week ago, and the 78th-ranked player for the 2018 class didn't hesitate to name Ohio State his top school. There's a long way to go until February of 2018 and Woodbey is a USC legacy, but he's also a teammate of recent Buckeye commit Wyatt Davis at California powerhouse St. John Bosco.

I went 2 years ago and it was fun. Not too many people show up so you'll get a good seat. You're also able to get on parts of the field, mainly on the sidelines by the north end zone.
Unroll the scroll even more. Ohio State gets a couple more recruits committing to the Friday Night Lights camp: https://t.co/4sJiUvZXPA— Land-Grant Holy Land (@Landgrant33) July 13, 2016

Just spent the whole night on the field sidelines with the best players in the country. Trevon Grimes is a really cool kid. I can't wait till he puts on the scarlet and gray.
