BREAKING NEWS: Twin Defensive Ends Darryll and Mandrell Desir Decommit from Florida State, Sign with Ohio State over Penn State, Nebraska, and More
In a stunning turn of events, highly coveted twin defensive ends, Darryll and Mandrell Desir, have announced their decommitment from Florida State University and have instead signed with Ohio State. The twins, who had initially pledged their commitment to FSU earlier this year, shocked the college football world when they chose the Buckeyes over a long list of suitors, including Penn State, Nebraska, and several other top programs.
The Desir brothers, hailing from Jacksonville, Florida, are widely regarded as two of the most dominant defensive prospects in the 2024 recruiting class. Their decision to decommit from Florida State comes as a surprise, given that both had been heavily recruited by the Seminoles for years. However, the allure of Ohio State’s storied football program, elite coaching staff, and recent success in the College Football Playoff race ultimately swayed the twins’ decision.
Sources close to the Desir family report that the twins were drawn to Ohio State’s focus on player development and their strong track record of preparing defensive linemen for the NFL. The Buckeyes’ aggressive defensive schemes and a culture that prioritizes winning national championships also played a key role in their decision.
While Penn State and Nebraska were also heavily in the mix, offering promising opportunities for the Desir brothers, the chance to join one of the premier programs in college football proved to be too great an opportunity to pass up.
- Both Darryll and Mandrell Desir are expected to make an immediate impact for Ohio State’s defense, with many analysts predicting that they will be early contributors in their freshman year. Their decision to sign with the Buckeyes marks a major victory for Ohio State’s recruiting class and sends shockwaves through the college football recruiting landscape.
