Ohio State has lost one of its commitments from its 2026 recruiting class, with three-star tight end Corbyn Fordham flipping to Florida State.
Fordham goes to high school at The Bolles School in Jacksonville, Fla., so it doesn’t come as much of a surprise that an in-state program was looking to take him away from the Buckeyes. He had been committed to Ohio State since Nov. 28, 2024.
Fordham is ranked the No. 627 player in the country, the No. 33 tight end and the No. 77 player in the state of Florida.
Now without Fordham, Ohio State doesn’t have a tight end committed in its 2026 class. With Will Kacmarek and possibly Max Klare leaving after the season, the Buckeyes will likely want to add future depth in the room over the offseason.
They could pivot to trying to flip a player they were involved in the recruitment of like four-star Mack Sutter, who is committed to Alabama, or four-star Brayden Fogle, who is one of three tight end commitments to the Bulldogs.
