For those of us who follow recruiting, the 2021 class was one we knew would be full of contributors by their 3rd year. Not only was it a historically highly rated class, but it was one that was very balanced in terms of offense AND defense. Looking back, however, the impact that class is having right now is even greater than what I expected. The "hit" rate is much higher than most other classes in terms of full time starters and consistent contributors, as much of this cycle has developed well by their junior year.
I know there has been a lot of discussion concerning Ohio State Recruiting in particular recruiting at Offensive Tackle. I did some research going back to 2000 to see where Ohio State was getting most of their recruits as it relates to the position. All the data was pulled from the 247 Website. While two of our best tackles ever were from Ohio, Orlando Pace and Korey Stringer, I did not want to go too far back because I wanted to keep it more current. All numbers are through the 2023 recruiting class.
