Pinellas Park tight end/defensive lineman Tyree Graves received his first offer when Ohio came through this past week.
Graves, a three-sport star, was a versatile player for the Patriots last season when he helped them finish as district runnerup and make the playoffs for the first time in a decade.
On defense, Graves often was overshadowed by teammates Jeremi Powell and Iman Smith, who both signed with colleges last month. Graves should have more of a chance to stand out this season with Powell and Smith graduating.
