“Great coaching staff, great men more importantly,” Kirks said about OSU to On3’s Hayes Fawcett.
Kirks is the 12th-best recruit in his home state (Ohio) and the No. 33 DL recruit in the country for the 2024 class, per 247Sports composite rankings. He’s also the No. 251 overall recruit in the country.
This news comes on the heels of former Alabama safety Caleb Downs committing to Ohio State after he entered the transfer portal. This team is absolutely loaded heading into the 2024 season.
The Buckeyes also have the second-best recruiting class for this year, per 247Sports. Only the Georgia Bulldogs are ahead of them.
