I know it's early in the 2026 recruiting game, and having recruits early hasn't always led to the best outcomes, but.....sure hate to see the other teams sprinting out to a lead. Please reread the first sentence, I did, but not used to seeing tOSU down that far in the rankings. I know, I know, that it's not how you start, but how you finish. Do so hope that tOSU is taking a 'more visit, less immediate commit' stance. Seems like the big names (5*+) are waiting to see how much NIL is to be spread around. And, from experience, the first offer sets the 'floor', with more to come on top. It has been pointed out by wiser posters than me, that tOSU simply isn't going to play that one-upsmanship game, and agree. Nor are they going to accept a commit, in order for that recruit to 'secure their place in the class' while they continue to visit etc. Just re-reading my own post points out how hard this recruiting game truly is, and what has become with the added dimension of NIL (let alone unlimited transfers). Not sure about the unlimited aspect, but am certain that will be corrected if in error. Go Bucks, and Lord, please give me the patience required to not be anxious or critical.
