OSU football and basketball recruiting fan talk.

Co-worker wants to bet: Which team will finish with a better Recruiting Class ranking - USC or OSU?

So I work out here in SoCal.
Hardly anyone out here gives a rip about sports.
I do have 1 co-worker out here, however, who occasionally talks sports w/ me.
He's a big U$C homer.
So I thought I would have a little fun trolling - I sent him an email showing how OSU currently holds the #1 2016 and 2017 classes.
He fires back... Do you want to bet to see if USC or Ohio State [finishes with] a better recruiting class ranking this year?
My gut tells me this could be easy money.

I'm curious if anyone can tell me how many guys OSU should take this year (my guess is 24-25)?  Currently @ 18.

Does anyone know how many U$C is expected to take?  Currently @ 16.

OSU pretty much has all the top recruits they're going to get.  The only elite recruits left on OSU's board (that I'm aware of) are:
Rashan Gary - not likely
Nate Craig-Myers - not likely
Antwuan Jackson - not likely
Binjimen Victor - not likely
Ahmir Mitchell - not likely
Brendan Ferns - could happen; but not likely
Donnie Corley - not likely, but I can actually see this one happening
Jordan Fuller - I think we get him
Jauan Williams - not likely
Damar Hamlin - possible
Luke Farrell - very likely
Prince Sammons - likely
Steve Smothers - not likely
Craig Watts - not likely
Andrew Pryts - likely

 

Meanwhile, U$C stills has decent shots to land...

5-star Oluwole Betiku
4-star Tyler Vaughns
4-star Jack Jones
4-star Dylan Crawford
4-star Lamar Jackson
4-star Brandon Burton
4-star Bryson Young
4-star Isaac Garcia
 

I guess what I'm trying to say is... as star-studded as our team is, I'm hesitant to make/place this bet, because I feel like U$C still has chips on the table, and I feel like Ohio State has cashed in all their big ones already.

Thoughts?
