The Ohio State Buckeyes received a pleasant Thanksgiving Day surprise with the commitment of this 2026 four-star recruit.
The Florida native holds over 25 offers, but ultimately chose the Buckeyes over Georgia, Clemson, and Michigan. Fordham is currently the No. 15 ranked tight end in the 2026 recruiting class,
With Fordham announcing his commitment to Ohio State, head coach Ryan Day is off to a solid start in the 2026 recruiting cycle. The Buckeyes now have three four-star commits in the class, as the highly-touted tight end joins a pair of wide receivers in Chris Henry Jr. and Jaeden Ricketts. At 6-foot-4, 220 lbs, Fordham displayed his wicked athletic ability during his junior season at The Bolles School in Jacksonville, FL.
Looking at the future positional landscape for the Buckeyes, Fordham is the third tight end commit in both the 2025 and 2026 class, as Day holds four-star Nate Roberts and three-star Brody Lemmon. While Ohio State's tight end room is rich with veteran talent in Gee Scott Jr. and Will Kacmarek, the slew of young talent coming into the program has a chance to make an impact in the coming years.
