Four-star 2025 Texas wideout Taz Williams long dreamed of getting an offer from Ohio State. The Buckeyes were one of several teams Williams watched growing up and had long been impressed by their prolific offense. On April 21, Williams visited Ohio State for the first time and was impressed by OSUβs facilities and recruiting pitch to him, and was thrilled to meet Ryan Day. βIt was great being able to actually meet Coach Day in person,β Williams told Eleven Warriors. βBeing able to have a conversation with him about football and outside of football and talking about his past, my past, where Iβm from, that meant a lot to me because he didnβt have to do that, but he did and it was really big to me.β At the end of his visit, Day presented Williams with an OSU offer, and the 6-foot, 175-pound wideout now boasts more than 35 Division I offers. βIt felt great because Ohio State has always been one of my favorite schools since I was younger, so it felt great to achieve my goal of receiving an offer from Ohio State,β Williams said. Williams says heβs developed a close relationship with Brian Hartline on the recruiting trail as well. βWeβll talk about how he recruits, the football team and sometimes weβll even talk about stuff outside of football,β Williams said of his conversations with Hartline. OSUβs success of developing successful wide receivers into first-round picks hasnβt gone unnoticed by Williams, with Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave turning into first-rounders in the 2022 draft and Jaxon Smith-Njigba getting picked No. 20 in the 2023 draft. βItβs crazy just knowing I could come in and be one of those guys, Williams said of OSUβs developmental track record with wideouts. βItβs just shocking and Iβm ready to live out all the dreams I have.β As a sophomore, Williams recorded 31 receptions for 510 yards with four receiving touchdowns for Red Oak High School (Red Oak, Texas) βI can play anywhere on the field,β Williams said. β(My best skill) is probably the separation I can create from receivers.β Williams said heβll βmost definitelyβ take another visit to Ohio State sometime in the future but is undecided whether it will be in the summer or in the fall. βIt would probably just be being able to play for Coach Day and Coach Hartline,β Williams said regarding what he believes is the most appealing thing about potentially playing for OSU. βJust knowing everything theyβve done and how many successful wide receivers theyβve had come through there.β

TAZ WILLIAMS SETS OFFICIAL VISIT FOR OHIO STATE MAY 31-JUNE 2 An Ohio State wide receiver target in the 2025 class has locked in an official visit to Columbus. Four-star Texas prospect Taz Williams announced heβll take his official to OSU beginning May 31 and running through June 2. Williams released a top 10 last month that included Ohio State along with Alabama, Texas, Michigan, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Texas A&M, Baylor, SMU and Penn State. The 5-foot-11, 181-pound wideout will make a spring visit to OSU before his official visit, as heβs scheduled to be on campus April 8 for a spring practice. Williams recorded 80 catches for 1,251 yards with 14 touchdowns in his junior season at Red Oak High School (Red Oak, Texas). He was offered by the Buckeyes last April following a campus visit. βIt felt great because Ohio State has always been one of my favorite schools since I was younger, so it felt great to achieve my goal of receiving an offer from Ohio State,β Williams told Eleven Warriors of his offer last year.
