COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State five-star defensive line target Jahkeem Stewart will not be on campus for an official visit this weekend.
Per a report from Rivals on Friday afternoon, the talented defender will not make the visit as scheduled, likely ending Ohio State’s pursuit of the Louisiana lineman.
Stewart, who recently reclassified from the 2026 class to the 2025 class, is the No. 16 overall prospect and No. 3 defensive lineman in the 247Sports composite rankings. In recent weeks, he’s taken visits to USC, LSU and Oregon. Multiple national outlets have predicted him to end up with USC.
Ohio State’s 2025 defensive line class has four prospects committed in Zion Grady, Jarquez Carter, Maxwell Roy and Trajen Odom.
