The Ohio State football team’s recruiting efforts are going off. In a time where recruiting visits are restricted due to COVID-19, the Buckeyes have found a way to ramp up their signings.
The Buckeyes have had four major recruits in the past week pledge to join their program in 2021, and it’s creating the best class in the nation so far. What’s incredible about this specific class is its diversity.
Nine of the 14 hard committed players are in their respective top 10. And, get this, none of those players, besides one corner, one receiver and one safety, play the same position.
Ohio State is adding a plethora of talent offensively with the third-best pro-style quarterback, elite receivers and two more four-star linemen.
Defensively it gets even better. Jack Sawyer, the No. 2 player in the class and a five-star defensive end according to 247Sports, might be another special guy that can create havoc around the end of the defensive line.
The players that have just committed, such as Jakailin Johnson and Evan Pryor, are the ones that really make this class shine.

The Buckeyes currently boast the most five-star and four-star recruits in the country and continue to be in on some of the bigger fish still out there too. That means we may not have seen the end of some top-end talent committing in the class.
All that to say, Buckeye Nation should be watching one of the nation’s best teams for at least the next half a decade.
