Kerry Coombs Closing in on First Commitment Despite NCAA-Issued Recruiting Dead Period

Kerry Coombs has already made his presence felt.

Coming into the 2021 recruiting cycle, the defensive backfield was one of Ohio State's greatest areas of need. That's especially true at cornerback, where the Buckeyes are expected to sign at least three prospects before next February's signing day.

This week's news has put a bit of a damper on what was expected to be a pivotal few months on the trail, but Kerry Coombs is getting it done despite still looking for his first big win in the commitment column. We were expecting some good news in March or April, but Coombs has the Buckeyes in a great spot even if things get pushed back a bit.
