Breaking News: 5-Star QB James Flanigan, Standing 7’6” and Weighing 250 Pounds, Shocks College Football by Flipping to Ohio State.

 

In a stunning turn of events, 5-star quarterback James Flanigan has decommitted from Notre Dame and announced his commitment to Ohio State, sending shockwaves through the college football world. Flanigan, a once-in-a-generation prospect, boasts a staggering 7-foot-6, 250-pound frame, making him the most physically imposing quarterback in modern football history.

 

Flanigan had long been considered a lock for Notre Dame, with Penn State also making a strong push. However, in a last-minute twist, the Ohio State Buckeyes secured his pledge, solidifying their already elite 2025 recruiting class. Flanigan cited OSU’s offensive system, quarterback development, and championship aspirations as key reasons for his decision.

 

“Ohio State just felt like home,” Flanigan said in a statement. “Coach Day and his staff have a proven track record of preparing quarterbacks for the NFL, and I believe I can thrive in their system.”

 

Flanigan’s commitment instantly elevates Ohio State’s future. With his towering height, rocket arm, and surprising agility for his size, he presents an unparalleled challenge for defenses. Analysts have compared him to a hybrid of Josh Allen and an NBA center, making him a nightmare matchup.

 

While Notre Dame and Penn State fans are reeling from the loss, Buckeye Nation is celebrating the addition of a generational talent. With Flanigan now in the fold, Ohio State’s quarterback room looks primed for dominance in the coming years.
