Sometimes things go a little under the radar and that’s exactly what happened with the last 2023 team composite from 247Sports. The popular recruiting service updated its final rankings for every player in the recruiting cycle. With it, an Ohio State recruiting class that was somewhat light on numbers and not as highly thought of gained a bit of a bump.
It wasn’t a major bump, and there’s still not the quantity many other schools have, or probably not even what the Buckeyes would like to have, but it is a bump nonetheless.
It’s a little like splitting hairs for a class that was already a top 10, but it’s noteworthy to realize that maybe the crop of players that the Ohio State staff identified is one that is better than expected and that the evaluation OSU went through was a good one.
Here’s where Ohio State lands in the final top 10 247Sports team composite after the final update of the 2023 player profiles.
