Elite Safety Prospect Considering Ohio State and Surprising New SEC Contender

2 min read

Trey McNutt, the top safety prospect for the 2025 class, has garnered attention from nearly 40 FBS programs, with 17 schools hosting him for unofficial visits. Now, as he weighs his options, one question looms: which program will win him over?

Recent reports reveal that McNutt plans to revisit Ohio State, where he’s been a frequent visitor over the past year. The Buckeyes seem like a natural choice for McNutt, given his Ohio roots and family ties to the program. His father, Richard, even won a national championship with the Buckeyes in 2002.

Despite the strong pull of Ohio State, other schools are still in contention. Lincoln Riley, head coach of USC, traveled across the country to meet with McNutt, demonstrating serious interest.

Additionally, Tennessee, Penn State, and Notre Dame have all made significant efforts to recruit McNutt, each presenting compelling reasons to join their programs.

However, the newest contender on the scene is Texas A&M, a surprise addition to McNutt’s list of potential destinations.

The Aggies offer a unique appeal, with defensive-minded head coach Mike Elko leading the charge. Elko’s expertise in developing safeties could be a major draw for McNutt, along with the promise of early playing time and substantial NIL opportunities.
