A boatload of future Ohio State footballers showed out at Nike's headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon, this past weekend at The Opening Finals. Tons of talent performed in front of a host of national recruiting evaluators, going head-to-head against the best players in the 2017 class. You can read a roundup of the weekend here and catch more notes over here.
A record 11 players already committed to Urban Meyer and the Buckeyes as part of the nation's top-ranked recruiting class received an invitation to the premier recruiting camp. Only offensive tackle Jake Moretti did not make the trip. Moretti suffered a knee injury last month at an Ohio State one-day camp. Shaun Wade came later after playing hoops in South Carolina at Nike's Peach Jam.
SPARQ testing took place Friday morning and a Nike Football Training Camp followed. Here are final results from Ohio State commits (highlighted) and targets in Oregon, in addition to the heights and weights each guy checked in at courtesy of studentsportsevents.com. The Opening posted the numbers Monday evening.
