COLUMBUS, Ohio — We've got some news to share.

With our original recruiting editor Eric Lammers off to the Rivals national desk, Scarlet and Gray Report is happy to announce that Zack Carpenter is joining the team to lead our coverage of Ohio State recruiting.

Carpenter has covered Ohio State recruiting for the past two-and-a-half years with both Eleven Warriors and Lettermen Row and is set to hit the ground running as the recruiting dead period comes to a close.

Managing editor and team writer Colin Gay caught up with Carpenter to get his views on Ohio State's 2022 class, what momentum the Buckeyes have heading into 2023 and what he's hearing from recruits about how head coach Ryan Day's newest hires are doing on the recruiting trail.

Join us in welcoming Carpenter by following him on Twitter (@Zack_Carp).
