Many people are comparing the 2016 Ohio State recruiting class to 2013. But this group of incoming freshmen may have more opportunities early on like those players in the class in 2012 did.
When coach Urban Meyer arrived on campus following the 2011 season, he looked at the roster and realized he had a lot of holes to fill. The players in the 2012 recruiting class helped to fill them. The players in this year’s recruiting class have the chance to do the same.
The depth was a big issue in 2012 so Urban Meyer played as many freshman during the season as any other Division 1 team in the country.
