Gabe VanSickle certainly has a flair for the dramatic. A standout offensive lineman from Michigan, VanSickle committed to Ohio State on Thanksgiving.
That’s right…a kid from Michigan committed to Ohio State during the same week that the No. 2 Michigan Wolverines host the No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes. Young brother has ice water in his veins because this is just cold.
A four-star recruit (according to On3), VanSickle had been committed to Northwestern since mid-May. But earlier in the week, VanSickle opened up his recruitment.
Two days later, he was committing to Ohio State. He is a 6-foot-5 offensive lineman who plays at Coopersville (Coopersville, Michigan).
VanSickle made his announcement on Thanksgiving via social media:

According to On3, he is the No. 253 recruit in the nation.
