Congratulations to Ohio State head coach Ryan Day for assembling another well-regarded recruiting class. At 21 players, Ohio State was able to address a number of areas, especially at the linebacker area. Eleven players have already enrolled, and will participate in winter conditioning and spring practice.
It is way, way, way too early to speculate on who will contribute in 2022, but as I wrote up above, the linebackers have me intrigued. CJ Hicks was nicknamed 'Captain Buckeye' for his efforts on trying to persuade others to join the class, and is well-regarded. Gabe Powers is another strong player. Last and certainly not least, Sonny Styles was originally committed to Ohio State for 2023, but reclassified and signed with Ohio State for 2022. While listed as a safety, most recruiting analysts project Styles to eventually play at linebacker.
Below is a listing of the players, as well as a graph representing their home state. Ohio, as usual, leads the way with six players, while Florida had 3, Georgia and Texas with 2, and a number of other states (Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Tennessee, Utah, and Wisconsin) with one.
