The Buckeyes were reportedly able to get two five-star quarterbacks in the offseason. Alabama's Julian Sayin joined through the transfer portal in the wake of Nick Saban's retirement and Noland happens to be another prospect joining the team.
While competing in track and field, he clocked 11.89 during the 100m race during his sophomore year.
In his freshman high school season, he posted 55.91 in 400m and 24.19 in 200m.

Noland spoke with the Columbus dispatch after the news of Sayin's transfer was made public.

Sayin is a five-star recruit, who had enrolled in Alabama on Jan. 10, the day Nick Saban's retirement was announced. This gave the quarterback the chance to jump into the portal, which he took.
Ryan Day now has an enviable problem, as he has a well-stocked QB room with Will Howard and these two freshmen.
