This late in the game for the 2026 class, it was a bit surprising that Ohio State hadn’t yet zeroed in on a quarterback prospect, especially given their long run of success on the trail at the position under Ryan Day.
While the Buckeyes aren’t especially in need at QB in the near future with both Julian Sayin and Tavien St. Clair both on campus, Day would obviously love to add more talent to the room given the current nature of college football. Following another big recruiting weekend in Columbus, it appears Ohio State has found its guy.
Earning an offer from the Buckeyes on Sunday during his official visit, Day and his staff are making a play for 2026 four-star quarterback, Luke Fahey.
Fahey comes in as the No. 23 QB nationally and the No. 33 player out of the talent-rich state of California. The 6-foot, 185-pound quarterback plays his high school ball at Mission Viejo, the same program that produced current OSU freshman receiver, Phillip Bell.
As the only quarterback the Buckeyes have hosted on an official visit this month, it is clear that Ohio State is incredibly interested in Fahey, and despite the offer coming at this late stage in the cycle, it seems that interest is mutual. Not too long after Fahey announced the offer, On3’s Alex Gleitman logged a Crystal Ball prediction in favor of the Buckeyes.
Fahey had a strong sophomore campaign, passing for nearly 2,200 yards with 26 touchdowns and six picks. He followed that up with a far more efficient junior season, passing for fewer yards (1,638) and TDs (17) but improving his completion percentage by almost 15% (76.6) and tossing zero interceptions. A multi-sport athlete, Fahey also plays basketball and lacrosse.
Ohio State immediately becomes the odds-on favorite to land Fahey, who is also considering Indiana and Stanford among his top options…
