WR Kyion Grayes (transfer to Cal)

Visiting with family on the 26th per Mick Walker.

Perhaps there will be some 2022 Ohio State commits who are able to join Grayes on the trip (in a similar fashion to the 2021 signees meeting Raesjon Davis on his recent trip to Columbus).

If so, that could help extend a relationship further between Grayes and the current members of Ohio State's 2022 cycle.

“I feel like it’s pretty good. We talk on a daily basis,” Grayes told us previously of his relationships with the Buckeyes' 2022 commits. “I’m in a group chat with all of them. They’re not even rushing me. They’re like, ‘whenever you’re ready, you’re in.’ So it just feels great. That’s one thing I like about them.”

“I’m trying to picture him as a senior in high school and his skill level,” Rick Garretson told Eleven Warriors. “Because he’s got the ability to go deep. He’s got the ability with the ball in his hands to make things happen, and he’s a big-time route runner. Not everybody in high school is like that.”

Grayes works with former NFL player and Washington State receiver Chad Carpenter, who trains quarterbacks and receivers. Working hand-in-hand with a former receiver who knows the position well has done wonders for Grayes.

“He knows his craft so Kyion knows how to get off press coverage, he knows how to stem, he knows how to shake people. ... I'll be shocked if he doesn't contribute early in his (college) career,” Garretson said. “He can play inside or outside. We do that a lot with him in our attack. Obviously, you like it when safeties try to cover guys like that because safeties generally aren’t great cover guys. They’re usually run supporters.

“But he’s multiple enough and diversified to play in the slot or to play outside. He understands leverage. He understands space and how to go ahead and set things up. He has a very high football IQ as a junior in high school.”

The versatility he brings to the table is part of what would make him a great fit at Ohio State. So, too, is his attitude about where he wants to play. It doesn't matter to him. Wherever he goes, he says he's moldable and will do what it takes to get on the field at any spot.

“Anywhere. I’ll go anywhere. If you need me to play slot, Coach, I’m there. If you need me to play outside, I’m there. I’ll go wherever you need me to be,” Grayes said. “It just depends. I kind of like the slot because I get to work against the linebackers, but at the same time I like to go deep so I like being on the outside.”
