Summary

The final Top247 for the class of 2020 was released earlier today. Ohio State's haul now includes four 5-star commitments. The 5-star Reveal Show show, hosted by Josh Pate and featuring analysis from 247Sports Director of Scouting Barton Simmons, featured player-by-player unveiling of the 32 final 5-star prospects in the class of 2020. That means in-depth discussion on the two you knew about and the newest 5-star Buckeyes: No. 4 Julian Fleming; No. 8 Paris Jackson, Jr.; No. 15 Jackson Smith-Njigba; No. 29 C.J. Stroud. So it back and listen to Josh and Barton go into detail on each of the Buckeyes to earn such lofty status and stick around for a list of the five prospects that fell just short of that elusive fifth star.

Oh, which I oh which I oh which I oh But I mean that character that Brazil shows I think is probably a good segue to our number four guy because you got to tip your captain

1:04.2

Julian Fleming who as a wide receiver with a ton of really talented defense alignment emerging in this class,

1:14.0

particularly late.

1:16.0

Yeah, wide receivers don't typically go this high.

Julian Fleming doesn't play an elite level of competition.

1:22.0

He's, but he just, he hung on and he hung on for dear life for that
