2021 247/Rivals/etc. National and Regional Rankings

Actually, per HotMic's list, we could get up to 13 players currently in the top 50, which would be over a quarter (26%) of the top 50:

4. Tuimoloau
8. Sawyer
11. Egbuka
13. Grimes
15. Adeleye
16. Jackson
26. McCord

31. Payne
35. Johnson
40. Wolfe
42. Harrison Jr.
44. Malone
50. Davis

Yeah, I like his list, but realistically banking on 11 or 12 of those.... hence why I didn't quite go the 1/4 of top 50 route. That would be awesome though. 25% has a nice ring to it.

It's hard to swallow that tOSU verbals are climbing in the rankings! Heretofore, it's always been the opposite. When tOSU receives their commitment, that recruit invariably swoons lower in the rankings. It's nice to see certainly, but I'd rather see the NFL give THEIR ranking to the Buckeye players in terms of the draft results. Three years of playing, being tutored by their position coachs, and Coach Mick (of course), and being front and center on national television against worthy opponents. Go Bucks! PS, maybe these kids are 'getting it' that there are a select few universities that will actually develop/make better those athletes that want to put forth the energy and dedication to their craft, and tOSU is one of those atop the heap. PS, I love seeing tOSU garnering in those 5*'s, but I still thoroughly enjoy seeing those 3*'s who rise from obscurity to become high NFL draft picks and stars! Guess I identify with the latter more than the former. Go Bucks!

By my prediction on who is "in" this class and the top 32-35 usually getting 5*, that would likely be 7-8 total 5*, perhaps 9. Redonkulous.
