Rico Flores Jr. Puts Ohio State in His Top Three, Eighth-Grader Tyler Atkinson Lands Ohio State Offer

Four-star California 2023 wide receiver Rico Flores Jr. has narrowed his decision down to three teams.

The 6-foot-1, 190-pound prospect released a final three Thursday of Ohio State, Notre Dame and Georgia. Flores eliminated Texas and UCLA from contention for his services, as they had both been on the top five he released in February.

A commitment date has already been set for Flores, who will announce his college decision on July 3. Flores sent out a tweet in April that read “it’s going to be hard for anyone to top OSU” and told Eleven Warriors he believed the Buckeyes would be in his recruitment until the end.
