Another Texas high school football standout is making his way to Columbus, Ohio. Kemp wide receiver Elijah Gardiner announced on Monday that he was flipping his commitment to play at Ohio State. Gardiner was previously committed to Missouri.
Thanks to all the schools that have recruited me but my family and I have decided to further my career at The Ohio State University.🅾️🔥 pic.twitter.com/ZHhSS9asOd

Kemp was named to the 6-3A Division II All-District team this season. The 6-5 receiver also becomes the third receiver in Ohio State’s 2017 recruiting class. Gardiner made the flip after taking an official visit to Ohio State and receiving an offer over the weekend.
With the flip, Gardiner becomes the fifth Texan to commit to Ohio State in the 2017 recruiting cycle. Safety Jeffrey Okudah (South Grand Prairie), athlete J.K. Dobbins (La Grange), and linebacker Baron Browning (Kennedale) have all enrolled early at Ohio State. JUCO cornerback Kendall Sheffield (Fort Bend Marshall) is also committed to the Buckeyes.
