Ohio State football had another dominant recruiting class and was a consensus top-five class in the country. Once again, the class features more than a few heavy hitters on the offensive side of the football, but the best commit may be on the defensive side of the ball with the surprising signing of Eddrick Houston.

Houston is a ball of clay with the potential to fill any role on the defensive line and could fill out to play on the interior or continue to develop off the edge. He has great athleticism for his size with surprising speed to cause havoc in the backfield. His go-to move is the bullrush, which looks Big Ten-ready.
