Ohio State won the national championship.
Ohio State had the most talented roster in the country.
The first is an incontrovertible fact. The second is, technically, an opinion -- one shared by everyone on ESPN's committee selecting the top 100 players of the 2024-25 season -- but it'd be tough to come up with a compelling argument for someone else.
(ESPN's selection committee included Bill Connelly, David Hale, Chris Low, Max Olson, Adam Rittenberg and Paolo Uggetti.)
Indeed, 10% of our top 100 list is Buckeyes, and that is probably too conservative a judgement of Ohio State's roster.
