PLANTATION, Fla. - Four-star cornerback Tyson Campbell, the nation’s No. 9 cornerback, said Ohio State is recruiting him the hardest followed by Miami and Georgia. He will visit Ohio State April 14-15.
"I like all of their coaches," Campbell said. "We talk almost daily. I can't wait for that visit."
He said he will visit Georgia and LSU this spring, too.
The Tigers were one of his first offers.
"I have a good relationship with (Tigers secondary coach Corey Raymond)," Campbell said. "Them being known as DBU. We talk a lot. Patrick Peterson my favorite cornerback went there. I would like to visit there again."
Campbell listed high interest in Ohio State, LSU, Clemson (who offered first), Georgia and Miami among his 21 verbal offers.
He said following his spring visits he plans to unveil a lead group. Campbell said he will make a late decision this winter following five official visits.
Campbell visited Clemson in late January for a Junior Day.
"The new facility," Campbell said. "It was real cool. It was a real quiet town. Everybody was real cool. I had a great conversation with (Tigers linebackers coach Brent Venables) and a little conversation with (Dabo Swinney). I enjoyed it."
Staying home and playing for the Hurricanes is something he's also considering.
"That's always a good option," Campbell said. "I got family in Miami so they could see my home games all the time. I have a great relationship with (Hurricanes cornerbacks coach Mike Rumph) and coach (Mark Richt). Saturday I went to the Duke/Miami basketball game. I had a great conversation with coach Rumph and after the game with coach Richt. Every time I go there I enjoy myself."
The Crystal Ball reads 50-percent for Miami, 25-percent for LSU and 25-percent for Clemson.
