OH names to watch according to BK:
OL-
Nolan Davenport
Tucker Kattus
Jermiel Atkins

DL-
Gordy Sulfsted


Something interesting that was mentioned by Porter and BK, was that they see Bo Jackson has having a higher ceiling on defense. They liked him at S and LB, and thought that Davis was talented but to keep pursuing the OOS RBs

Total Commits: 8 | Overall Rank: No. 4
Recruiting class impressions:
Ivins: "This could be the best corner haul since Alabama got Kool-Aid McKinstry and Terrion Arnold in the 2021 cycle. Devin Sanchez and Na'eem Offord are both early five-stars for us. These guys are the real deal. They have Blake Woodby committed. He's probably my favorite inside corner. Tavien St. Clair is the No. 3 QB for us right now. It's an excellent evaluation by Ohio State. I love how he layers the football. He's athletic. He can throw on the move. He can win games on Saturdays. Excellent start in the secondary and at quarterback."

​

Recruiting intel and recent developments.
Loy: "I got a Crystal Ball for Ohio State for four-star tight end Nate Roberts. I feel really good about the Buckeyes adding him to that class. Four-star Dorian Brew, the No. 16 player in the class, has a Crystal Ball for Ohio State, too. The rich get richer. What a haul on the back end of the defense for Ohio State this could be. They're not slowing down anytime soon.”

These LB recruits have gotta look at tOSU's defensive scheme, losing one of the traditional LB sets. Bringing down a S to cover the TE or extra WR appears to be a solid iteration to the traditional LB sets, so reduces the potential to see the field by 1/3. Can anyone recollect how many times tOSU lined up three LB across, that didn't involve moving Sonny down? Not something I paid attention to, unless in run situations, and with the Buckeyes DL, seemed that splitting the TE out to the sideline was the more important defense needed. Anyway, believe there's enough LB strength in the pipeline anyway, so maybe not as critical a fix this year.
