Summary

Ohio State had the No. 1 recruting class in the country for 2022 for a while, then they didn't, and now they do again. Matt Baxendell joins Dave Biddle for today's show to discuss that, plus:

* The Buckeyes getting their most-recent commit, high 4-star WR Kaleb Brown from Chicago.

* Is 4-star DE Gabriel Harris also on track to be a Buckeye after decommiting from Florida State?

* How is Bax feeling about the Buckeyes' chances to land 5-star OL Zach Rice?

* Is 4-star OL Aamil Wagner basically a lock for OSU, or no?

* Rutgers is ranked No. 5 in the 2022 recruiting cycle. Wait, in the Big Ten? No, in the country.

All of that and more is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

0:00.0	Good morning, Buck Nudders. Welcome to the Buck Nuts Morning 5 here on
0:29.9	Wednesday, June 9, 2021. I am Dave Biddle. I am joined by Matt Baxendale. A lot
0:36.0	to get into. The Buck guys have vaulted back to the number one class in the
0:40.5	country, back in the saddle again. They were a number one for a while back and
0:44.4	they were number two. Now they're back to number one. We'll get into the 2022
0:49.1	class as a whole in a moment. Let's start with the young man that allowed them
0:53.3	to vault back to the number one ranking. He is Caleb Brown, four star wide
0:58.4	receiver, high four star wide receiver. The number six wide receiver in the
1:02.3	country. Number 63 overall player in the country, young man out of Chicago,
1:06.2	Bax, Brian Hartlan continues to prove he's not bad at this recruiting thing.
1:10.9	Yeah, this one's fun because I'm not too long ago. People were talking about him
1:15.4	as a big Michigan lean, right? And then the first weekend, he's allowed to go to
1:18.9	Ohio State. He visits and commits. So showed you how much of a lean he really
1:22.4	was in that not at all. I think we're at the spot right now where Brian Hartlan
1:27.8	is essentially going to be bringing in real elite receivers every single year.
1:32.7	Period. At a time where the transfer portal is becoming a bigger and bigger
1:37.6	thing and there's only one football to share between all these talented players
1:42.1	coming in. You're going to have to continually restock the cupboard for kids
1:46.1	coming out of high school, right? So you know, this is what we're seeing at this
1:50.2	point with with the elite kids that are coming to Ohio State. It's yet another
1:55.1	top 10 receiver, top 100 kid. Like we've said this how many times Dave were
2:01.3	Ohio State lands another big commitment and we go, oh yeah, okay, ho, home.
