If you look up the phrase ‘On Fire’, a huge picture of Kerry Coombs and the Ohio State football program’s recruiting efforts will be the first result.
The Buckeyes picked up their fourth commitment in the last three days, the third one of the defensive side, as four-star defensive back Andre Turrentine pledged his services to the scarlet and gray via Twitter on Tuesday.
Out of Ensworth High School in Nashville, Tennessee, the 6-foot, 175 pounder is ranked as the No. 6 safety in the nation and No. 136 overall according to 247 sports.
He additionally held offers from Georgia, Penn State and Florida as well as LSU, Alabama and Tennessee, who were in his final four before picking Ohio State. Turrentine is now the 14th commit in the Buckeyes’ 2021 class and seventh on the defensive side.
So Blessed 🙌🏾
1000% Committed ‼️ pic.twitter.com/S5pGRyqxJb— ANDRE TURRENTINE ✨ (@KingATIII) March 17, 2020
Having worked as a defensive coach for the Tennessee Titans for the past couple years, Coombs didn’t have to go too far to get this talented kid.
Right time, right place, right fit.
