The No. 2 player in Louisiana will not be staying in the boot for his collegiate career.
Baton Rouge Catholic (La.) safety Blaine Bradford has committed to Ohio State. He was long though to be an LSU lean. On3 projections gave the Tigers a 93.9% chance of keeping the 6-foot-1, 195 pound defensive back home.

Bradford is a five-star recruit and the No. 25 player for the class of 2026 in the On3 Composite. He chose the Buckeyes over LSU, Texas and Oregon among more than two dozen offers.
His brother, Jacob Bradford, signed with LSU as a defensive back in the 2025 class.
