Greenwood, Indiana native Caden Curry signed with Ohio State on Dec. 15, 2021. It wasn’t until Monday, however, that he officially became a Buckeye.

Curry is the third OSU player of 2022 to lose their black stripe. The Ohio State football team shared video and photos of Curry from practice on its Twitter account.

Curry announced his commitment to Ohio State on Dec. 14, 2021, a day before inking with the Buckeyes. Out of Center Grove, Curry was rated the No. 3 Indiana product, No. 13 edge defender and No. 123 prospect overall nationally in the class of 2022 on the 247Sports Composite. He chose Ryan Day’s program over 25 other scholarship offers.

Curry is the third Buckeye to lose their black stripe this year. Safety Tanner McCalister was first on March 28, followed by safety Kye Stokes on Friday.
