As per the norm, any Ohio State commits/leans are much lower than they should be.

I don't think most of us have insider.

Could you list OSU's targets and where they're ranked?

Considering they'd have to PAY ME instead of me paying them to see how badly we've been dissed this go around...

Oops, missed the insider part. Give me a second and I'll get a list up.

Hayze - Both Burrows and Marshall are 4*

Basically the only 5* we've been closely linked to is TE Adam Breneman.

It's the ESPN top 100 in alphabetical order. They just listed who they have as 5* in alphabetical order and who they have as 4* in alphabetical order.

Burrows, Woodard, Marshall, Foster, Ty Isaac, Jaylon Smith and more are all 4*

Seems very biased towards Florida as almost half the 25 5* listed are Floridians

That's why their recruiting "rankings" are nothing more than sloth dung. List goes directly by how many 5* recruits out of their mythical top 150 are landed. Two wrongs don't make a right.

At the very least, Marshall and Foster should be five stars, and Burrows/Smith should be borderline five stars. I don't know much about Woodward, but from what I've read a four-star ESPN rating sounds about right. What about Derrick Green? Are we in on him or Isaac more?

I wouldn't cheer for Michigan if they were playing the Taliban.

Current OSU offers are the ones I listed, if you are curious about anyone else post and I will let you know. As for my first post, maybe I mispoke, I should have said, as per norm, players FROM ohio/midwest are much lower than I should be. Unfortunately for ESPiN we have plenty of nationwide offers.

5 Stars - ESPN listed them alphabetically

-Greg Bryant
