I see a Brendon White type of player.

The fact that he's Mike Doss' brother gives me hope in about 18 years OSU will offer Nick and Joey Bosa's younger brother as well.

As to Kirk, I hope the speed and violence Mike played with is hereditary. OTOH, I suppose a player like Mike wouldn't finish a game in today's "defenseless player" age.

I'm sure this commitment is a matter of when, and not if

 

[wadc45]

I'm very curious to see if there are any strings attached to this offer.

THE HURRY-UP: “FAST, LONG, PHYSICAL” CB AVANTE DICKERSON A POTENTIAL FIT IF KERRY COOMBS RETURNS TO PRESS-MAN STYLE, SAFETY A.J. KIRK NO LONGER AN OPTION FOR BUCKEYES

KIRK NO LONGER AN OPTION

Since we’re talking about defensive backs today, I wanted to touch briefly on another player who was at one time a top Ohio State target in the 2021 class.

A.J. Kirk, the younger brother of former three-time first-team All-American and Ohio State Hall of Fame safety Mike Doss, left a one-day June camp with an Ohio State offer and entered his junior season as one of the Buckeyes’ top targets at safety or bullet. At the time, the 6-foot, 200-pound Dublin Coffman standout seemed like a clear Ohio State lean with his local and family connections.

Multiple sources, however, have confirmed that, unless something unforeseen happens, Ohio State is no longer interested in Kirk – who did not play a down for Dublin Coffman this past season – as a potential target.

In all likelihood, Ohio State will be looking to add five defensive backs in the 2021 cycle, which will most likely be three cornerbacks and two safeties. Four-star Gateway (Pa.) High School standout Derrick Davis Jr. – the nation’s No. 2-ranked safety and No. 35-ranked overall player – has visited Ohio State multiple times, including a game day, with his most recent visit coming last weekend.

Davis is arguably the most talented safety available to pair with already-committed Cincinnati La Salle safety Jaylen Johnson.

Interdasting

 

[Hodgepodge]

Yet, based on his junior season---or lack thereof---not altogether surprising.

Sounds like ttun or Kentucky at this point
