Top 3 Commitments:
5-Star DE Nick Bosa
Bosa is the younger brother of former Ohio State star Joey Bosa, who is now heading to the NFL. Bosa committed to Ohio State in July and signed his letter of intent today. The five-star stud is the No. 8 overall player in the nation according to 247Sports' composite ranking. He's the top strong-side defensive end in the nation.

4-Star DE Jonathon Cooper
Cooper has already enrolled at Ohio State and should pair with Bosa to wreck havoc in Big Ten backfields for several years. He's the No. 32 overall recruit and the No. 3 weak-side defensive end. He's the second-best player from the state of Ohio.
4-Star RB Demario McCall
McCall is an "all-purpose" back, meaning he might not be limited to just playing running back. Ohio State could try to use him like Florida used Percy Harvin. He doesn't have great size, but has more than enough speed to make up for it. He's the No. 44 overall player and the No. 3 player from Ohio.
