    De Kalb (Miss.) Kemper County On3 Industry four-star offensive tackle recruit Mario Nash Jr. continues to see his stock rise on the trail with Texas A&M and Ohio State being the latest to offer.

    The Aggies and Buckeyes aim to make a move on a few other programs already entrenched in this recruitment. The blue-chipper has summer official visits locked in with Clemson, Ole Miss, LSU and Mississippi State.

    Clemson’s one big recruiting weekend of the summer is the weekend of May 31 and the 6-foot-5, 285-pound Nash will be part of the festivities.

    “The biggest thing is the culture at Clemson,” Nash said. “I like the staff and how they all develop guys at a high level.”

    Ole Miss gets Nash back on campus the weekend of June 7.

    “Me and Coach (John) Garrison have built a great relationship and he develops his guys at a high level also,” Nash said. “Ole Miss has a great program and also a great atmosphere.”

    LSU is set for the weekend of June 14.

    “I like the diversity at LSU and the player development as well,” Nash said. “Coach Brad Davis is a great coach.”

    Nash was at LSU’s spring game.

    “It was a great visit. The offensive line looked very physical for the most part and I really like how they play. I feel like it’s a great fit for me because of the physicality and style of play. Coach Davis is the type of coach who will push me to be great. He’s a straightforward guy that tells you like it is.”

    Mississippi State is on the schedule for the weekend of June 21.

    “State has a great atmosphere and I’m anxious to see what the new staff will do,” Nash said. “Coach (Cody) Kennedy is a great coach also.

    “I really enjoy the fans and the game day atmosphere at State. The campus is pretty cool. The new staff has been great at recruiting me and I feel that the direction of the program is headed the right way. There is a new energy there.”

    The Bulldogs are the heavy On3 RPM favorite to keep Nash at home.

    The On3 Industry tabs Nash as the nation’s No. 22 offensive tackle and No. 287 prospect overall. He is the No. 11 prospect in the state.
