Rising 2026 Cornerback Ksani Jiles Calls Getting an Ohio State Offer “A Blessing” and Has Started to Form a Close Bond with Tim Walton

When Ksani Jiles took his first-ever visit to Ohio State in late March, he left campus impressed with what the Buckeyes had to offer.

The 2026 cornerback also left Columbus with an offer in hand from secondary coach Tim Walton, a moment that touched the 5-foot-11, 175-pound defensive back.

“It was great since it’s BIA,” Jiles told Eleven Warriors of his offer. “Ohio State has put out the best DB products so it’s a blessing to get an offer from them.”

Walton and Jiles had a lengthy conversation during his visit. Walton let him know how much of a priority he is for the 2026 cycle.
