Adding Kirks and Sayin was a great final touch on this class. Then you factor in the huge portal transfers and you have to be ecstatic.

National Signing Day: The 10 teams to sign the most blue-chip recruits in 2024 class
No teams brought in more elite talent than these.
Signing blue-chip recruits is a strong indicator of future success in college football, and the schools listed below dominated the recruiting trail for the class of 2024. Coaching and culture matter, but programs still need top-end talent to compete in the modern age of college football. According to the Blue-Chip Ratio, programs need to sign more four- and five-star recruits than two- and three-star players over the previous four recruiting classes to have a shot at a title.T-4. OHIO STATE BUCKEYES
Top247 Commits: 11
Overall Recruiting Rank: No. 5
Ohio State held on to five-star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, the nation’s top overall prospect, despite furious attacks from the who’s who of college football elite down the stretch. He’s the Buckeyes’ lone five-star commit as quarterback Julian Sayin will arrive in Columbus as a transfer. Head coach Ryan Day has plenty more elite talent to tout, with edge Eddrick Houston, cornerback Aaron Scott, wide receiver Mylan Graham and quarterback Air Noland rounding out the program’s five top 75 commits.

Uh, we're the *second* ranked class, not the 3rd or 5th. 247 still doesn't have Sayin in the class:

Technically he’s a transfer and this not part of the recruiting class.

I don't care...he was not with Alabama at the end of the recruiting "season", but he was in our class by the end of the recruiting season.

Sayin was an odd situation, commits and technically transfers. To be fair, outside the "official" rankings, many analysts essentially counted him to the '24 class.

I agree, it’s stupid to count a guy for a school that he’ll never play for.
If this was the other way, do we think the rankings for most of those services would have decided to credit the player to Bama’s class instead of tOSU’s?

Too soon old, too late smart
Call me petty, but.....when you sign in to the team recruiting, and at bottom shows the 'all' of the best recruits on Alabama's board, it will forever (?) say that Sayin is one of their most highly rated ever. And that will have an Ohio State logo (maybe BP can make that one a tad larger than the others?). Same as Ewers will have that stinking cow beside his name. That should warm the cockles of everyone's heart (Sayin, not Ewers). Go Bucks!

5. OHIO STATE
Aaron Scott (Karyna Aguilar/Rivals.com)
From the outset of the 2024 cycle, Ohio State’s secondary plan began with landing elite in-state targets Aaron Scott and
Bryce West, and the Buckeyes accomplished that early on, never looking back. Each is big, battle-tested and productive against the type of 50-50 plays that make or break red zone and/or move-the-chain moments against marquee opponents. With the cornerback duo solidified, it sought out depth in Arizona native Miles Lockhart to combine with safety projections Leroy Roker and Jaylen McClain. Roker is the late-bloomer of the bunch, coming up as a basketball prospect as an underclassman, so he could be the addition we look back on years down the line having missed on projecting his ceiling in Columbus.
