When 2024 cornerback Ellis Robinson IV received an Ohio State offer from secondary coach Matt Barnes last week, he couldn’t help but smile.
“It was an offer I have been waiting for,” Robinson IV told Eleven Warriors.
Robinson IV, a cornerback from Connecticut, is rated as the No. 4 overall player and the second-best cornerback in the 2024 class, per 247Sports’ composite rankings. He already has 17 Division I offers including Florida State, Georgia, Miami, Michigan, Penn State and Tennessee.
The Buckeyes have shown interest in Robinson IV since he began his sophomore season at Iona Preparatory School (New Rochelle, New York) earlier this fall.
