Signed: Four-star Tailback J.K. Dobbins Brings Elite Athleticism and a Home-run Threat to the Buckeye Backfield

The future stars of Ohio State football officially begin their Buckeye careers as standouts from all over the country put pens to their National Letters of Intent.

Ohio State's recent history at running back has been nothing short of spectacular. Carlos Hyde became Urban Meyer's first 1,000-yard rusher in 2013 and would go on to be selected in the second round of the NFL Draft. Everyone knows about Ezekiel Elliott who led a 2014 squad that would ultimately become national champions with wins over Alabama and Oregon. As a rookie, he's already one of the best players in the NFL and could very well take home its MVP honors.
