MIDDLETOWN — One of Middletown High School’s most highly touted football recruits in recent memory has made his college decision.

Junior Jalin Marshall said he will give a verbal commitment Monday night to The Ohio State University.

Marshall, one of the top-ranked recruits in Ohio and the nation in the Class of 2013, chose the Buckeyes over Notre Dame, Cincinnati and Tennessee.

Marshall, a 6-foot, 190-pound quarterback, rushed for 1,859 yards (7.8 per carry) and 20 touchdowns in 12 games last season, leading the Middies to a Division I playoff berth. He also passed for 782 yards and tossed six TD passes.

Marshall told The Journal that playing for OSU was “a childhood dream.”
