2027 OH DL Kaylon Bailey (Colorado Verbal)

Really feel the same here. Bailey is a developmental guy with high potential, but maybe him developing elsewhere and taking a look again if he's in the Portal is not the worst thing in the world. Would have liked to have him in this class, but we're going to be just fine where he would've slotted in.

That seems to be what's going on a lot with Colorado. Kids will go there because they know they will likely get to play right away and then most of them bolt after 1 season. 64 players entered the portal after 2025 and 65 entered the portal after 2024. It does make sense to go get a year of P4 playing time right away especially if they are tossing you a decent bag as well.

2027 MS OL Caden Moss (Verbal Offer)

Wiltfong just dropped a prediction for Moss to Ohio State.

He sure did. It’s not the same meaning as what it once with NIL. But still a very big announcement. Now we will have to wait for some insane offer from somewhere down south. Getting Moss would be a very very big deal! These are the type of recruiting battles that Bowen was hired to win and that Frye never could.

S Terry Moore (Official Thread)

Why Ohio State is betting on a bounce back​

The biggest question surrounding Moore entering 2026 is not talent, it is health.

After suffering a torn ACL during Duke’s bowl game following the 2024 season, Moore missed all of 2025 while rehabbing. That lost season naturally creates uncertainty, especially for a player whose game relies on explosiveness and movement skills.

But all indications throughout spring practice suggested Moore was progressing well. He shed his black stripe early in camp and participated throughout the spring as he continued regaining confidence and rhythm.

If he is fully healthy by the time Ohio State opens the season, the Buckeyes may have landed one of the biggest transfer steals in the country. This is a player who was generating legitimate NFL attention prior to his injury. A player who was viewed as one of the top safeties in the ACC. A player whose combination of instincts, physicality, and versatility fit perfectly within modern defensive football.

Ohio State’s defense already appears loaded with talent across every level and position. The defensive line has multiple former blue-chip recruits and transfers. The linebacker room has more answers than it did entering spring. The cornerback group could be one of the nation’s best.

But championship defenses often come down to one thing: trust.

The ability to trust every player on the field to be in the right position at the right time. That is exactly what Terry Moore has the potential to provide. If he returns to the level he displayed in 2024, Ohio State may not simply have added another starter.

They may have added the final piece to an elite secondary.
