Bailey Byrum is an offensive tackle coming out of the 2016 class. The 6’6 305 pound beast is from Sweetwater Tennessee. Bailey holds offers from a couple schools and is starting to get his recruiting process going. He recently was at a NFTC camp in Columbus and visited Ohio State. An offer from the Buckeyes would not surprise me.
By the end of Bailey’s upcoming season I believe he will hold offers from several schools, including Ohio State. It will be interesting to see what happens! Check out an interview I did with Bailey below:
