McKinney Boyd (Texas) running back Dedrick Scrivens announced his commitment to OSU on twitter Tuesday afternoon. Scrivens will attend as a preferred-walk on, according to the McKinney Courier-Gazette.

A preferred walk-on is offered a spot on the team, but not an athletic scholarship. Preferred walk-ons are often placed on scholarship after proving themselves.
