It's a great class, and would definitely be top 3 right now if it weren't for low numbers compared to other schools. The quality is very high, and the positions are spread out nicely. Plus, many of these guys are already close friends, and several are either already enrolled at OSU now, or will be for Spring.

OSU is still closely in on Terrelle Pryor, Josh Jenkins, and Keith Wells.

Keith Wells is a speed-rush type DE from Georgia who is deciding between OSU, Tennessee, FSU, Auburn, and recently Notre Dame.

Brandon Harris, a highly rated CB out of Miami, has OSU in his top 2, but word is that he did not like Malcom Jenkins returning. People expect him to commit to Miami.

BTW, Devoe Torrence will NOT be a part of OSU's class. Nothing has come out in the open about why, but this link gives the answer. However, his name has not been publically released as a part of this situation...yet.

OSU has signed a BIG TIME linebacker from Louisville Trinity, his name has slipped my mind. He is going into his senior year but will be a good pickup for the Bucks next year. This kid is a monster. Im ticked he didnt go to Louisville :-D

Cant blame him though look at the LB's to come out of C-Bus.

You are right, and he is in the 09 class. His name is Jordan Whiting, and he is one imposing looking player.

Keep in mind that he is 16 in this picture. :shock:

Dude looks to be build like a bricK @@@@ HOUSE AND THAT IS A GOOD THING.

Ive seen this kid play he will be one to watch at the college level. He played very well @ Cincy St X( i think this was the game) Also, his high school, Louisville Trinity, has the best 3 linebackers in the state of KY. Not the best corp the top 3 backers period. Pretty impressive for 1 team to have soooo much talent.

I'm pretty sure he committed to play baseball at Florida State.

Ohio State has an exceptionally talented recruiting class for 2008...they've got a lot to look forward to. They are arguably the best recruiting class for '08.

I saw were Torrence wasn't on the 2008 list in the Dispatch today.
