I think the '16 in-state class is significantly stronger than '15 and I also think Meyer has made a decision to speed up the process of offering the top in-state players. The number of early offers to Ohioans and the number showing up on these early rankings is extremely encouraging.

Hopefully these two things will results in a quicker start next years than what we've seen so far in 2015.

Either way, it's clearly going to be another insanely good class for Ohio State.

'16 is going to be INSANE. Ohio is ridiculously loaded and it looks like everyone we have offered we are the clear leader for (Hill, McCall, Kreamer, Ferns, Cooper, Hausman, Gerald, and Eichenberg)...by the time evaluations keep rolling in and the '16 class will be seniors, over half the class could be Ohio boys. I believe Layne will definitely get his offer sooner rather than later and that would be 9 guys from Ohio if we indeed get all I listed. I haven't heard much on Sammons, maybe a guy to watch. It's cool to think we won't have to leave the state for RB and basically OL.

Then you throw in national guys from that list we have a very good chance at nationally like Rashan Gary, Nick Bosa (essentially a lock and I honestly think he is the top player in the country for '16), Malik Henry, Nate Craig (we are the leader right now and he will likely leave Florida), Austin Robertson (grew up in Ohio, loves us), Onewenu, Ben Bredeseon, Josh King, Levonta Taylor...yeah, this class will be special. In particular, the DL class is just off the charts...Cooper, Bosa, Gary, King, Rashaun Smith, Onewenu, etc...yikes.

I'm guessing that Hoke will be going all out for #300.

I suck at linking, but here's the new Top 247 for 2016. They also updated their state ranking and it's conceivable that OSU could get the top 14 players in the state.

Bosa at 64...get out, kid is a top 10 talent easily. Hausmann at 207? Rashaun Smith outside the top 100? I realize it is an early list but there are some major flaws in there. Overall it is a really good list, but the ones they are off on are way off.

I was just shocked they missed so bad on an established guy like Bosa. However, I do think they are typically the best in the business as to the rankings so I'm sure it will get ironed out.
