Jake Seibert Was Left with No Connection to Ohio State, Committed Five Months Later

Ohio State kicker commit Jake Seibert lost all of his connections to Ohio State in January, except for Drue Chrisman. That was all he needed to become the next kicker for the Buckeyes.

There was a point in Jake Seibert’s recruitment when he lost all connection to Ohio State.

Seibert had been in talks with the Buckeye staff dating back to Taver Johnson’s time on staff. The two had developed a good relationship, and Seibert was feeling positive about his chances at playing for his home-state’s school. Then it was announced in early-January that Johnson would not be returning to the Ohio State staff.
