Our recruiting class so far
Looking over our commitment list, we are doing very well overall, and outstanding in several positions, (rankings are national standings at their position per Rivals100):
OFFENSE:
QB - Bauserman, #20
RB - Pittman, #13; Haw, #24
TE - Hoobler, #3; Nicol, #4 (Wow!)
WR - Morgan, #25; Williams, #27 (Davis, #3, if we get him)
OL - Person, #12 (OG); Rehring, #27 (OT); Skinner, #42 (OG)
DEFENSE:
CB - Ginn, #1; Lane, #14; Underwood, #16
S - Welch, #15
LB - Freeman, #4 (ILB)
DL - Barrow, #38 (DT); (Gholston, #10 (DE), if his commitment is true)
The only three commitments we have who aren't nationally ranked (at least now, and by Rivals100) are Trapasso (K), Smith (LB), and Johnson (RB).
It's amazing how much we cleaned up with two of the top four TEs and three of the top 16 CBs including the #1 CB.
Rivals100 also has us at #6 overall so far. I'd say we're doing pretty damn well, dontcha think?

Yep. I'm not a big "recruitnik" like some of the Buckeye faithful, but from everything I'm hearing the class is going along just fine. Of course some just won't be happy even if we sign the #1 class. But if we sign "Tressel" type of kids who want to play for OSU I'll be happy. Hopefully with the strong start the recruiting "bus" will gain momentum and we'll land some more All-BigTen/All American type players on the way to NLOI signing. Congrats and thanks to all who have choosen to become Buckeyes!

Gohlston is confirmed!!!! Mitchum and Hart would make this class ultra sweet at this point.
Tressel and company are doing a magnificent job.

Johnson might not be a national recruit, but with his speed, size, and pedigree (Pepper is his dad)... I'd say he will be a good FB for the bucks (if he has hands he could be a great one)...
The class is filling out well... time to sprint down the home streach....

Another great job locking down Ohio. If JT can continue to get the majority of the Ohio kids and continue to land a few top notch out of state recruits every year we'll be set year after year.
Ray Williams would also be in this class if his grades were in order but he'll be off to prep school and join us next year.
I'm really excited about Haw and Pittman.
This class looks good to me!

This is a great class but it will be an incredible class if we can land Hart,Mitchum,Davis and Williams. JT is doing another great job of keeping the OHIO boys at home...
GO BUCKS!!! |

This years class is shaping up to be a great one. It's great that we have good high school football in he state of Ohio and only need to go OOS for top players at need positions.

How many think that Clarett would be the Buckeye's greatest recruit if he returns to the Buckeyes?  |
