Summary

If the "Blind Side" was being made today, Paris Johnson would likely get a call from the film's casting director. The Class of 2020 star and Cincinnati native recently transferred fro St. Xavier to Princeton so he can graduate early and is THE left tackle prototype: 6-foot-7, 290 pounds, great feet, great frame, great ... you get the picture. Instead of taking the Hollywood route, Johnson is currently verbally committed to Ohio State. But the Urban Meyer-to-Ryan Day transition meant Johnson's recruitment hit the reset button. So far, so good. 247Sports Director of Recruiting is jet-setting across the lower 48 but made some time for us to talk Johnson and much more after seeing him workout in person recently. We also go into detail on other offensive linemen that could be future Buckeyes as the recruiting trail gets heated. Prime targets headed elsewhere? Former targets coming back into focus? Wiltfong comes with answers - as always. Spend 5ish with us this a.m., 'Nutters!
