Nine days after spring training, we have our third elimination of the black band, this time by the second year defensive line player Dominic Kirks. The native of Painesville, Ohio, saw the action in three games during his first year at Ohio State. Originally committed to WashingtonTHE Buckeyes were able to return Kirks and keep him near their home.
Kirks was a four -star recruit leaving the school and was classified as the defensive line player n ° 32 in the class and player n ° 10 in Ohio according to 247Sports. With Caden Curry and Kenyatta Jackson who should take control of the defensive end positions, Kirks will fight with the former secondary shot by the tip, CJ Hicks and Idaho transfer Logan George for representatives of the second team with the recruit Zion Grady and the third year, Joshua Mickens. It is a busy position group and we will have to wait and see if New defensive coordinator Matt Patricia pivoted line players more generously than his predecessor, Jim Knowles.
