If he commits, Pope would become the 17th commitment for Ohio State's 2018 class which already ranks No. 1 in the nation. Pope would be joining fellow inside linebacker Teradja Mitchell in the class; Mitchell ranks as the No. 2 inside linebacker in the nation.

Pope is a consensus four-star recruit, and he ranks as the No. 7 inside linebacker per the 247Sports Composite.
