Sports TwitterBuckeyes get two more recruits from Pennsylvania
Tuesday, April 22, 2008
Ohio State raided Pennsylvania for two more football recruits this week, landing the state's top-rated senior-to-be in linebacker Dorian Bell and picking up an all-purpose running back from Terrelle Pryor's high school.
The 6-foot-2, 220-pound Bell of Monroeville, Pa., is rated as the 22nd-best prospect nationally by Rivals.com and had scholarship offers from about three dozen schools, including Florida, Michigan and Penn State.

The 5-9, 185-pound Jordan Hall teamed with OSU-bound Pryor to lead Jeanette High School to a 16-0 record and a state title. Hall tallied about 1,600 yards rushing and receiving and turned down offers from Michigan, Penn State and Notre Dame, among others.
The Buckeyes have 11 verbal commitments in the 2009 class and have about 20 scholarships to give.
