Although Ohio State football is in the midst of another one of its big recruiting runs, you can’t win them all.
Florida Quarterback 2026, Dia Bellwas considering becoming a Buckeye, but it doesn’t appear that will be the case because he has committed to Texas on Monday afternoon.
Ohio State has now lost its top two signal-calling targets in that class, as well as losing Jared Curtis, who committed to Georgia. Expect the Buckeyes to pick up the pace in recruiting North Carolina’s Faizon Brandon and California’s Brady Smigiel. They each currently hold an offer from Ohio State.
Thank you to everyone who offered me the chance to pursue my dreams at your school. I am grateful for all of you and the relationships we have built! These were from 2 years ago to today. It was always the plan! @TexasFootball time to build the best class of 2026 in the country! #HookEm pic.twitter.com/1LLqju4bkf

There is also the possibility of turning Bell or Curtis, as it is a long way before the class of 2026 can sign their letters of intent.
