Mark Fletcher, who was the only running back in Ohio State’s recruiting class of 2023, has decommitted from the Buckeyes.

, it certainly appeared the Buckeyes were well on their way to building a mini-recruiting pipeline from Florida. But the allure of potentially staying close to home was too good to pass up for Fletcher, and there have been reports claiming the Florida prospect may be incentivized by potential NIL deals.

With Fletcher's decommitment, Ohio State is now down to 20 commitments in its 2023 recruiting class. After Fletcher committed to OSU in the spring, the Buckeyes were content just taking one running back in the 2023 cycle. With his sudden departure, the Buckeyes now have several options. It's not as if Ohio State is unprepared for this situation, as it had already been reaching out to various running backs about potentially visiting OSU on Nov. 26, as

Good luck to him

Nothing wrong with that run game

Everyone is freaking out about this. He saw the freshman RB last week and likely realized he would be sitting for a year or two before seeing significant playing time. This is not a big deal.

Scholarship? Did OSU offer him enough NIL $$$?

Shit i don't blame him. Are running backs have been mid to say the least hell they even fall over there own shoe lace . The o-line Barely gets any push considering it's one of the biggest in college football.

I wish you would have stayed a Buckeye but best of luck where you choose to play!!

Wish him the best, probably a better culture fit.

And from the way Hayden ram the ball this weekend and with Pryor coming back healthy next year our RB room is beyond good

We don’t need any RBs in the 23 class!!! We will end up getting one but Everyone on our roster at the RB position are freshman and sophomores and will all be back for the next year or two. Chill

Next man up ✌🏾✌🏾

BOOM!

Well bye

We still have Henderson for another year, then Hayden and Pryor. Hayden may have to burn his redshirt this season at this point though.

Ya for the first time in a while I don't think anyone from the RB room is leaving this year

Best of luck to him. Picking the right college isn’t easy for many students and the added component of major college football is another layer of decision making. Ohio State will be fine. We are a top program. A top running back will want to come here.

What🤦🏿‍♂️... This Dude looks like he's going 2 be a beast wherever he plays. Good Luck youngsta. Go Buck's!!!

Sad.

Portal

That’s ok , we’ll take another 3 ⭐️ like Miyan Williams …

Welcome to NIL free agency. Florida is the highest bidder in this one.

We’ll find another one lol wish you luck bro

Here come the couch potatoes 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Rumor swirling Rueben Owens is going to check Ohio State out next week.I feel like Mark felt wronged that Ohio State is still potentially looking for another RB which isn't uncommon for a single recruiting class. Its tough but these things happen every cycle. Good luck young man.

Saw this coming.

That Florida NIL money plus you can get a good back in the transfer portal not as much of a deal breaker in modern day college football.

He knows he can basically come in and get playing time right especially with all the injuries we’ve had

Dont need anyone wish-washy anyway.

Tony Alford on the hot seat.

RUEBEN OWENS YOU ARE A BUCKEYE

Hopefully they use that scholarship and get another WR or kicker
