Quinn Ewers, Ohio State Buckeyes recruit and No. 1 player in the 2022 class, per 247Sports compositive rankings, led his Southlake Carroll High School team through the state playoff seminals over the weekend, advancing to the state championship game. Notably, Ewers was originally committed to play for the Texas Longhorns. That ship, it seems, has sailed.
