Andrew Sweat, a heavily recruited linebacker at Trinity High School, is expected to make a verbal commitment to Ohio State today.

Sweat will hold a news conference this evening to announce his decision. A 6-foot-2, 225-pound junior, Sweat was recruited by colleges across the country. He had narrowed his choices to Pitt, Penn State, Notre Dame, Michigan and Ohio State. Then last week he trimmed the list to Ohio State and Notre Dame.

Sweat made unofficial recruiting visits to Ohio State and Notre Dame this weekend.
