Flores made his announcement with a tweet this week.

Per 247Sports, Flores ranks as a Top 200 overall prospect for the 2023 recruiting class. Among wide receivers, he’s listed at No. 26.

The 6-foot-1, 190-pound wide receiver had received nearly 30 offers during the recruiting process. At Folsom High School last year, Flores caught 31 passes for 606 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Ohio State currently owns the B1G’s top-ranked recruiting class for the 2023 cycle. The Buckeyes are also No. 2 nationally.
