Below you will find Ohio State's 2017 Ohio State commits, offers and prospects. This list will be updated monthly.

There was a lot movement over the last month. Ohio State picked up a commit and offered five new players. Two players who committed to other schools are back on the market and 37 ranked players were added to the Radar List.

The comp. ratings were also updated and the Buckeyes received a bump in their class average. In all it was a good cycle for Ohio State and the 2017 class. Have fun pouring over all the new information.

New Commits Between 1-18-2015 and 2-16-2016
