The Ohio State quarterback room is stacked, to say the least. Three five-star QBs led by Heisman finalist C.J. Stroud have the Buckeyes sitting pretty for the foreseeable future. Plus Ryan Day already has a commitment from another five-star gun slinger in Dylan Raiola headlining the 2024 class.
However… can you really have too much talent in the quarterback room? Injuries and the transfer portal say no, no you can’t. And while the coaching staff is racking up commitment after commitment and currently has the No. 4 ranked class in the country, they have yet to land a commitment at the quarterback position for 2023.
After seeing a talented crop of campers on Wednesday, the Buckeyes have extended an offer to 2023 quarterback and four-star recruit, Austin Novosad. The interesting thing about Novosad is that he has already given a verbal commitment to the Baylor Bears.
Novosad is the No. 17 ranked QB in the nation according to 247Sports composite rankings and hails from Dripping Springs, Texas.
After a great conversation with coach @ryandaytime and @CoreyDennis_ I am blessed and excited to say I have received an offer from The Ohio State University! 🌰🌰 pic.twitter.com/bzz2Sap7LC

In the world of big-time college athletics, verbal commitments don’t mean much until pen hits paper. Could there be a chance that the Buckeyes could flip a player who’s been committed since December of 2021? Even with all the talent that resides in Columbus? Don’t count Ohio State out. At the very least, the young man will have to seriously consider his options.
