  A big June commitment run kept cooking on Monday by adding three-star 2026 Taft (Ohio) linebacker Adam Kirtley to the 2026 UC football recruiting class.

According to 247Sports, Kirtley is the 157th-best linebacker nationally and the 90th-best player in Ohio. He is the sixth commitment this month for UC.

The 6-1, 215-pound talent holds 19 offers from schools like Akron and Bowling Green. He committed quickly after getting an offer last week. 

Check out his highlights here as UC's first hometown hero in the 16-player class.
