The thing I admire about OSU is they know where the priorities are. It's easier to find some LBs and D-linemen when you play in a 3 yards and a cloud of dust conference such as the Big 10. OSU knows it needs to offer some corners and safeties to compete with everyone else. TAKE A [censored]ING HINT GUYS! Warren and Cissoko are nice starts, but it seems like OSU finds stud DBs every year.

OSU's DB's are largely unheralded recruits that were identified by the
OSU coaches and coached up. Coleman is the only starter higher than a 3-star. Jenkins, Russell, Chekwa, and Washington were all 2-3 star guys with little to no other bigtime offers. Recruiting is only half the battle - sooner or later the coaches have to take responsibility for developing that talent.
