There was a lot of news involving Ohio State on Saturday. The NFL draft came to a conclusion with a few Buckeyes hearing their names called throughout the seven rounds, but that wasn’t all.
Ohio State received news of a pretty high-profile transfer from Notre Dame (a legacy commit in fact) and gained a commitment from four-star running back Jordan Lyle for the 2024 class.
Out of St. Thomas Aquinas in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the 6-foot, 180-pounder is ranked as the No. 27 running back and 320th overall prospect in the class on the 247Sports composite, but don’t be surprised if that rises in the coming months.

Lyles is the third running back and the 13th commitment in the 2024 cycle, a class that is No. 2 on the 247Sports team composite just behind Michigan.
