The Ohio State football recruiting efforts started out white-hot with the 2022 class, quickly jumping way out in front of all other schools for the clear No. 1 ranking according to multiple recruiting service websites. Things have cooled off a bit though with decommitments from 5-star cornerback Jaheim Singletary and 4-star tight end Benji Gosnell.
Add that to the reclassification of 5-star quarterback Quinn Ewers to the 2021 class, and all of a sudden, the Buckeyes sit at No. 3 in the 2022 class according to the 247Sports Team Composite Rankings, and No. 4 per Rivals. That’s still pretty darn good, but OSU could use some more momentum to polish off a class that was once looking like a historical one.
We’re constantly sniffing around, finding nuggets in recruiting, and the latest is the update to the Rivals top 250 rankings for each prospect. Here is how the ten verbal commitments to the 2022 Ohio State football recruiting class included in the top 250 stack up after the update.
