Ohio State recruiting: State Secrets, 3/21 (lghl) 

With the NCAA Tournament all the rage, highlight tapes set the tone from a football recruiting perspective. 

Much of the focus on the 2014 recruiting class in Ohio State circles of late has been on and surrounding all-everything Michigan wide receiver Drake Harris. Harris officially decommitted from Michigan State – which to be fair, he'd been committed in name only for over a month – over a week ago. Ever since, multiple fan bases have claimed Harris as their own. Just about all Michigan Wolverine fans with Internet access seem convinced Harris is the next in the long, storied line of Michigan receivers.

CFB Recruiting : QB DeShaun Watson Key to Ohio State & Clemson (bleacher report)

Ohio State and Clemson aren't traditional rivals on the recruiting circuit, but they may be in for an intense duel in this upcoming cycle.

The state of Georgia hasn't exported a ton of elite quarterback prospects over the past few years, but North Georgia's Gainesville High School has been the exception to that rule.

Jayme Thompson: 2013 Ohio State football player profiles (lghl) 

This week we move along in our preview of the 2013 recruiting class that Urban Meyer has assembled with a look at 247 composite 4-star safety Jayme Thompson, the 15th ranked overall player from the state of Ohio. Thompson will join an Ohio State secondary that is the most experienced group on the defensive side of the ball, but Meyer's hyper-competitive atmosphere combined with a lackluster effort from the defense in 2012 doesn't automatically disqualify Thompson from seeing the playing field. During Thompson's recruiting, OSU had to compete with multiple schools that offered Thompson, and he was originally committed to West Virginia before he concluded that OSU was the best fit.

McMillan is one of the thickest high school kids I've ever seen.

Reminds me a lot of Reuben Foster in terms of his physicality.

Unrelated, but kind of stings to hear from Quin Blanding this week that "Virginia and OSU were my top two," and Hurd last week that Tennessee and OSU were his top two. So close. I will say though, appears his relationship with Coach London at UVA is a big factor -- and it seems like almost every article I've read is expecting London to be shown the door if UVA has another poor season, so that could be something that affects things down the line (ala Dontre Wilson or Trey Johnson with Kelly's departure and Chizik's firing last year).

We'll hit on some and miss on some.Hurd doesn't hurt as much because we're stacked at RB right now.We have offered a lot of safeties,so I think we'll be alright.Plus we're still in on Autry as well.

What we do on the field will most likely change a lot of things.

I agree. Recruiting seemed to get awful easy for Bama, ND and OSU the longer the season went on, and specifically the longer they remained undefeated/championship contenders -- and conversely harder for teams like USC and Texas with once stellar classes the more losses they piled up.

Also impossible to project the coaches that stay and the coaches that leave, which affect a lot of once solid commitments down the line.
