Is this skewed based on the location of some of the academies like IMG? Or did they correct for that?

You know what? Chicken butt.
Meh. Not really. Definitely not too odd on a single year basis.

I agree that Ohio State must continue to recruit nationally, but unless Ohio is having a VERY down aberrational year, those numbers seem absurd.
Here's a chart of state of origin for NFL player (2016): https://www.businessinsider.com/nfl-rosters-by-state-2016-9
Similar 2019 data: https://n.rivals.com/news/building-the-roster-the-states-that-produce-the-most-and-least-nfl-players

Obviously there's not perfect correlation, but ...

In general, OH doesn’t have as many as CA, TX, FL but the rest changes a good bit from year to year. TSUN with 10? 4 more than OH? Not a regular occurance.
GA with 34? More than CA? And yet only 6 in SC right next door...
AZ with 9?! VA only 6?!

THE HURRY-UP: RYAN DAY GAVE MORE INSIGHT INTO HIS RECRUITING PHILOSOPHIES, CLOCK STARTS NOW ON FINDING OUT IF HIS APPROACH IS SUSTAINABLE
The Hurry-Up is your nightly dose of updates from the Ohio State football recruiting trail, keeping tabs on the latest from commits and targets from around the country.
NO ULTIMATUMS, NO PUSHING
Cameron Martinez’s recruitment over the past month and a half is a microcosm of Ohio State’s approach with recruits.
In the same instances with Paris Johnson Jr. and Lejond Cavazos – Johnson’s commitment was very much in limbo following the retirement of Urban Meyer, and Cavazos decommitted following Meyer’s departure – the coaching staff stayed patient, didn’t panic and didn’t offer ultimatums to them.
It’s all part of the process that Ryan Day has been building his program around. The staff wants recruits to take their time making decisions because they only want them there if they're there for the long haul. Having an easier way out of a program, with the way the transfer portal is set up, has made that approach a more effective way to recruit, and it will pay off down the road.
At least, that’s what this staff is banking on, and we’re going to find out in the 2021 and 2022 cycles if Day’s approach here is a sustainable one. Outside of individual recruitments, that’s probably the most interesting overarching recruiting storyline over the next two years, and Day gave more insight to that approach on Wednesday.
“I think in today's day and age, whether you sign or not, if the kid's not happy or doesn't really pick the school for the right reasons, he's going to end up in the transfer portal and leave anyways,” Day said. “It's not just about getting the kid to sign on the dotted line. It's not that way anymore. Now, it's having trust and having the relationship with the family and common respect for each other that things are going to go in a certain way.
“And I think that's the way it is with Cam, and I think that's the way it is with all the recruits in that they know they're going to be treated the same way they're recruited – I mean, treated the same way they're here as when they were recruited.”

As with all philosophies, you gonna win some (Cam Martinez) and you gonna lose some (Bijan Robinson). Let us hope Ohio State continues to win their share

2023 NFL Draft: 10 college football programs hit hardest by underclassmen departures, ranked
4. OHIO STATE BUCKEYES
Most impactful player entry: C.J. Stroud, QB
Ohio State's quarterback exit wasn't the only major casualty for the Buckeyes this draft. They lose a couple stalwarts along the offensive line and WR1 Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who missed most of the campaign with an injury to his hamstring. A two-year starting center for the Buckeyes, Wypler's departure came as a surprise compared to tackle Paris Johnson Jr., a unanimous first-round projection. Wyper helped anchor an offensive line that led the way for the country's No. 9 total offense (490.7 yards per game) and No. 2 scoring offense (44.2 points per game).
Just sayin': Just shows you what a great class of recruits the "2020 class" was and there are a lot more than just those 4 too:

This is and always will be one of the best recruiting strategies! When the NFL draft comes around and you can sit kids down and show them where kids who sat in the same seats were as recruits, and now they're walking across the stage and shaking Commissioner Goodel(or a fan, or GM depending on when they're drafted). And then you can point to on field success as well2023 NFL Draft: 10 college football programs hit hardest by underclassmen departures, ranked

Absolutely. If you aren't getting hit by early departures, you aren't getting/developing top talent. I used to get all up in arms about Buckeyes declaring early, but I am well over it. Would you love someone like CJ, JSN or PJ to come back? Absolutely. But if you're a first round pick and don't have much upside in coming back, that makes no sense. The only ones I don't like is where they are a Day 3 pick and have a lot to gain by coming back. I think Wypler winds up in that category unless I am missing something (or he blows it up at Pro Day or the combine), and looking back a little ways was Jalin Marshall. In any event, having a ton of Buckeyes getting drafted does equal the easiest recruiting pitch you can have really.
