Ohio State has dominated That Team on the football field during the past decade. How have the Buckeyes fared against them in recruiting since 2012? Over the next couple of weeks I will compare Ohio State's and That Team's recruiting by position during the Urban Meyer era.

Brady Hoke is in shock that the recruiting experts ranked his quarterbacks higher than Ohio State's quarterbacks. It is amazing what quality coaching can do for player development and performance.
