Ohio State football is back in the hunt for one of the prized recruits in the class of 2026. Jared Curtis is a four-star prospect from the state of Tennessee and has recently announced his decommitment from the Georgia Bulldogs.

Trashawn Ruffin is a four-star prospect according to 247 Sports. He is the #245 overall player in the 2026 class, the #30 DL and the #16 player in the state of North Carolina. Ruffin currently attends North Duplin High School in Mount Olive, North Carolina.

A major recruiting option just came back on the table for Ohio State as it continues to search for a 2026 quarterback. The Buckeyes are set at quarterback in 2025 with Tavien St. Clair, who’s been firmly set in his decision for over a year.

During his weekly radio appearance, Ohio State coach Ryan Day addressed the NCAA's rule change concerning illegal substitution late in games.

Losing is never fun, but it can be constructive for a team to face adversity. With the Ohio State Buckeyes licking its wounds from a 32-31 loss against Oregon, this Week 8 bye is the perfect chance to reflect on what hasn't worked as well as the team expected.
