Ohio State 2020 Recruiting Thread

[Bonebuck]

Buckeyes will be getting a HUGE commit Sunday at noon. Jordan Hancock who is nationally ranked #76 decommitted from Clemson and will be committing to the Buckeyes tomorrow. He is from where I used to live in around the Buford Georgia area and plays for North Gwinnett HS. This is a huge get for Coach Combs and Ryan Day to get a kid out of the heart of Georgia.

Huge get for Buckeyes!!!!

With the addition of Hancock Ohio State will have 12 of the top 100 players in the Nation. That is unheard of. With the chance to land a couple more before this class is signed.

The Buckeyes offered [b]Tristan Leigh[/b] in late September of 2019.
The process is starting to wind down for [b]Tristan Leigh[/b] just as it gets rolling for [b]Aidan Leigh[/b]. [b]Tristan Leigh[/b] was originally going to come out with his final six, but recently said he had cut it to five and would soon announce the five.

Buckeyes are expecting a commit for the 2022 class tomorrow around 7pm. Gabe Powers-#1 player in the State of Ohio and ranked top 50 nationally. Gabe will be playing OLB for the Buckeyes. He will be joining Jyaire Brown-4* cornerback ranked 112 nationally along with CJ Hicks a top 150 OLB player nationally and Tegra Tshabola a 6'5" 330 lb. OL who is a top 150 National rank.

All 4 players are from the State of OHIO. Ryan Day's approach/recruiting is certainly much different than Urban Meyer. Ryan Day is concentrating on in-State recruits as a priority vs. Urban who lost quite a few very good players in-State.

Ohio HS coaches are in love with Ryan Day evaluating in-State talent as a priority.

GO BUCKS!!!!!!

Apologies for lack of updates been very bust travelling and such. Dasan McCollough did commit to the Buckeyes for the 2022 class. This may be the best LBer class ever as we have Gabe Powers and CJ Hicks committed also. Gabe and Dasan are top 50 players while Hicks is currently ranked #71 Nationally.

The 2021 class we also landed are very good OL in Zen Michalski from Indiana. Highly sought recruit who has a 3 star composite score but should be a 4 star recruit soon when new evaluations come out.

Buckeyes are still very much in on Emeka Egbuka(#1 WR) from Washington and J.T Tulmoloau(DE) also from Washington #2 nationally and since LSU demise recently there is a lot of chatter with Tristian Leigh(OL) having more interest in TOSU and a pssible visit. There has also been a crystal ball issued very recently for OL from Indiana, Kiyaunta Goodwin-6'7" 300lbs.. 4 star recruit ranked 281 nationally.

This 2021 class is just a few points of being the top class but currently sitting behind Bama. If we can get 3 of 4 mentioned above we should have the #1 class in 2021 and quite arguably the greatest recruiting class ever in Buckeye history.

Quinn Ewers a decommit from Texas and Titty Bar Tom, just committed to THE OSU!!! #1 QB and #2 player in Nation. This is for the 2022 class. Ryan Day is a recruiting machine.!!!!!!!

Buckeyes have 3 Lber's (top 50 players) committed for this 2022 class.

[zigbee]

Quarterback Quinn Ewers, the No. 1-ranked prospect in the 2022 class, committed to Ohio State on Thursday.

His commitment gives the Buckeyes the No. 1-ranked prospect three recruiting classes in a row, with defensive end Jack Sawyer in the 2021 class and wide receiver Julian Fleming in 2020.

Ewers had previously been committed to Texas, but announced Oct. 28 that he was decommitting. At the time, Ewers said he didn't get the opportunity to explore all his options and wanted to take that opportunity.

Ewers, a 6-foot-3, 205-pound prospect from Carroll High School in Southlake, Texas, had offers from nearly every program in the country.

EDITOR'S PICKS

Ewers, No. 1 in '22 class, decommits from Texas
When he initially committed to Texas, Ewers said it was always a dream of his to play for the Longhorns, but those feelings changed along the way and Ohio State got in the picture, ultimately receiving the talented quarterback's commitment.

Ewers is adding to an already strong quarterback room for Ohio State, which has the No. 4-ranked pocket-passing quarterback, Kyle McCord, committed in 2021. The staff also signed two ESPN 300 quarterbacks in the 2020 class in C.J. Stroud and Jack Miller after taking in transfer Justin Fields in 2019.

Ewers gives Ohio State seven ESPN Junior 300 commitments in the 2022 class along with linebackers Gabe Powers and C.J. Hicks, athlete Dasan McCullough, offensive lineman Tegra Tshabola, cornerback Jyaire Brown and tight end Benji Gosnell.

Those seven ESPN Jr. 300 commitments have the Buckeyes tied with LSU and Penn State for the most such commitments for any program in that class.
