2023 Ohio State Quarterback Lincoln Kienholz

March 2, 2023January 5, 2023 by Steven R

Ohio State signed 2023 South Dakota Quarterback Lincoln Kienholz (6’1 180) to a National Letter of Intent on Wednesday. His skill-set would fit right in with the Buckeyes. Lincoln Kienholz is one of the state’s top recruits this cycle. He’s already signed with Ohio State and appears to be a team leader, but what could have been? The Buckeyes flipped him from Washington when they lost another top quarterback in the cycle. It is becoming a habit that OSU needs a quarterback late in the recruiting period.

Kienholz Could Have Gotten More at Washington

With every Ohio State signee, there seems to be a question whether or not the Buckeyes are maximizing its NIL potential in regard to recruiting. It’s no different with this cycle, perhaps more so given the rampant speculation over Alabama’s (and yes, other rivals’) use of satellite camps and other visits in the summer. Keinholz stated this past week that Washington had more NIL money for him than Ohio State had available.

The Buckeyes secured a signature from the fastest-rising quarterback in the country after flipping him earlier this month. For Lincoln Kienholz, there was no end to the size … Read more at FryingPanSports

What Makes These Two Players Special To Be Selected In The NBA?
