Of the 26 scholarship players that Ohio State brought in as part of its recruiting class of 2015, only 13 of those players remain with the Buckeyes.
Following Joe Burrow’s decision to transfer from the program on Tuesday, half of Ohio State’s 2015 recruiting class is already gone.
At first glance, that seems like a high number. With that class going into its fourth year out of high school, its members are supposed to be a core portion of this year’s team, and 50 percent of it is already gone.
Since Urban Meyer arrived at Ohio State, however, losing about half of a recruiting class before its senior year has been par for the course.
