Yep. Missing on Latham and Burton hurt. OL is my only real concern with this class, but I'm not too worried. We've recruited the position very well in past years and I love who we've got in the fold. And there's still time to flip Latham, though I'm not holding my breath.

QUICK RANKINGS UPDATE
We all saw this coming, but now it's official. The latest 247 Rankings update has increased Alabama's score and slightly decreased that of Ohio State. Alabama insiders have long been talking about some "secret film" for four-star defensive end Monkell Goodwine, and sure enough, the Bama commit jumped up just about 100 spots in last week's update. This boost comes after playing just four games as a junior and zero thus far in 2020.

The race to the finish line is going to come down to the Buckeyes' pursuit of guys like Emeka Egbuka and J.T. Tuimoloau. Alabama currently has 21 commits compared to Ohio State's 19. But if the Crimson Tide end up signing 25+, it's going to be tough for Ryan Day and Ohio State to regain the top spot.

There's still a long way to go as we're three months from the early signing period and five months from February's national signing day. Things are likely to slow down a bit on the trail as teams now get into game-preparation mode without any of the usual official visitors in attendance on Saturdays.

2021 CLASS RANKING, 9/22

It’s been a while. In fact it has been a long time since the record was set for the most commitments from any one school to be selected for the All-American Bowl. According to 247Sports Director of Scouting and All-American Bowl media, in 2008 Notre Dame had 12 commitments in the All-American Bowl. Ohio State has tied and is in position to break that record.

With Ohio State defensive tackle commitment Tyleik Williams and Buckeye wide receiver commitment Marvin Harrison Jr. recently accepting invites to play in the 2021 All-American Bowl, that makes 12 Ohio State class of 2021 commitments to accept an invitation to play in the game this year.

In addition to Williams and Harrison Jr., the other ten Ohio State commitments who have accepted an invitation to play in the 2021 All-American Bowl are quarterback Kyle McCord, running back TreVeyon Henderson, running back Evan Pryor, wide receiver Jayden Ballard, offensive lineman Donovan Jackson, defensive end Jack Sawyer, defensive lineman Mike Hall, linebacker Reid Carrico and cornerbacks Jakailin Johnson and Jordan Hancock.

As far as breaking the record, the Buckeyes are currently the Crystal Ball leader to land defensive end J.T. Tuimoloua and wide receiver Emeka Egbuka and both have accepted invites to play in the 2021 All-American Bowl.

Wasn't that the year he got Golic's kid in? For those too young to remember; Golic's kid was, perhaps, THE cautionary tale of over hype from a recruiting analyst(s) because anyone with eyes that wasn't swinging from ND or Mike Golic's nuts could see he wasn't even really a high D1 prospect. Let alone a 5 star all American. He could have gotten hurt out there.
