Ohio State had some uncharacteristic recruiting losses leading up to the start of the early signing period on Wednesday, and head coach Ryan Day feels that is simply a sign of the times.
The Buckeyes lost the top recruit in the 2024 class when quarterback Dylan Raiola decommitted.
Then on Wednesday, four-star cornerback Kayin Lee signed with Hugh Freeze and Auburn after previously committing to Ohio State. Matayo Uiagalelei, a five-star edge rusher, also surprisingly chose Oregon after Ohio State and USC looked like the favorites to land him.
Day was asked at his press conference on Wednesday about losing out on a handful of top recruits. He complained about schools still recruiting players even after they are verbally committed to other programs.
