The Buckeyes were in need of a tight end in the 2009 class, and they received a commitment from one today. Reid Fragel (Grosse Point, Michigan) became the fifteenth commitment in the 2009 class. He chose the Buckeyes over teams like Michigan State, Wisconsin, Maryland, and Cincinnati.
At 6-7 255, Fragel has incredible size. He also fits the mold of Tressel tight ends that can get it done in the trenches. He may not be the most flashy tight end, but Fragel really gets in done in multiple ways. Fragel adds to an already stellar 2009 class, and fills a much needed position. I welcome Fragel to the Ohio State family.
