The Class of 2015 keeps doing work.

Freshman defensive lineman Robert "BB" Landers and linebacker Jared Drake are the latest rookies to have their black helmet stripes removed and become "real" Buckeyes. 

Landers is a four-star prospect from Dayton's Huber Heights Wayne, while Drake is a walk-on from Westerville Central.

Urban Meyer tweeted the news out just moments ago.

This brings the total of freshman to have their stripe removed to six.
