UCF added a piece to next season’s football roster with the commitment of Ohio State transfer Cedrick Hawkins. The 5-foot-11 Hawkins is a 4-star from Cocoa High School, entering the portal after one season with the Buckeyes. He signed with Ohio State for 2023 but didn’t see action as a true freshman and entered the NCAA transfer portal Tuesday. Hawkins was a two-way player for the Tigers, lining up at safety and wide receiver.
