Florida 2026 QB Dia Bell Says Ohio State Offer Made Him "Speechless" and Considers the Buckeyes His Dream School

Since Dia Bell watched Ohio State win the national championship in 2014, the 2026 quarterback prospect has considered OSU his dream school.

That made the Florida prospect’s visit to Columbus surreal on Thursday, when he became the fourth quarterback offered by the Buckeyes in the 2026 cycle.

“I was speechless,” Bell told Eleven Warriors of earning his OSU offer. “Ohio State has been a dream school for a long time so when coach Day offered me, I just kind of went blank.”

After great conversations with @ryandaytime Coach Chip Kelly and @CoachRLarkin I am blessed and thankful to have received an offer from @OhioStateFB #GoBucks #AGTG pic.
