WR Kyion Grayes (transfer to Cal)



“The first thing I asked him was if I could have some of his swag,” ...:lol:...Grayes told Lettermen Row jokingly. “He had some Ohio State stuff on so I asked him who he was and told him I’d been hearing a little from their coaches.”

Dixon spent five years in the Ohio State program and has been a primary driver of the incredible culture that the Buckeyes receivers room has become known for in the last handful of years. His unexpected friendship with Grayes, the unexpected result of a young peer training with the same receivers coach he and other NFL hopeful use, has given him the chance to spread the message to the next wave of Zone Six.

“This was right when Ohio State had started talking to me, last May” Grayes said. “So I figured why not ask him. He basically gave me the foundation of their program, that it basically feels like family. We’ve talked about their practices, their games and he’s been another set of eyes for me when it comes to Ohio State football.”

Dixon has had no problem giving that insight to Grayes. He knows the young receiver has the right approach and mentality to succeed in Columbus if the Buckeyes are able to secure a commitment from the silky-smooth 6-foot-1 receiver.

“He is a great kid, and a really hard worker,” Dixon said of Grayes. “That’s my little homie.”



Kyion Grayes eager to visit Ohio State

It’s finally here for Kyion Grayes: The long-awaited visit to Columbus that likely will determine the conclusion of his recruitment is just days away. The 6-foot-1, 170-pound receiver from Chandler (Ariz.) High School will head east with his parents on Friday and begin a four-day visit to Central Ohio, something he’s been looking forward to since being offered by Ohio State receivers coach Brian Hartline last October.

“It really is just a good relationship,” Grayes told Lettermen Row while in Arizona on Sunday. “Things just feel like family with the Buckeyes and Coach Hartline, because he keeps it real with me 100 percent of the time — and I want that. This trip is really important because I just want to see the environment there and get a feel for it.

“I want to see [Ohio Stadium] and the facilities, but I need to see the entire campus, to make sure it feels like home. I mean I just love Buckeyes Nation, everything just feels like a big family and I need to make sure it feels like home.”
