Summary

What is up with the budding St. Louis-to-Ohio State pipeline? And is Cleveland Glenville jealous? Jonah Booker joins Dave Biddle for his usual Friday visit to tackle the former topic, but not the latter. Ezekiel Elliott is of course originally from the St. Louis area, and he became a household name across the country while at OSU. Then in the Buckeyes' 2018 recruiting class, they landed a pair of promising wide receivers from St. Louis: Kamryn Babb and Cameron Brown. And looking at 2019 recruiting, two of the top WRs in the country -- Jameson Williams and Marcus Washington -- both greatly favor Ohio State, according to the Crystal Ball predictions. Do Buckeye fans have Zeke to thank for the fact that so many highly-ranked St. Lou prospects are looking closely at OSU? JBook answers that. Also on the docket: * The latest on Jack Miller, Zach Harrison, Tyler Davis and Darnell Wright on this recruiting-themed edition of the Friday extravaganza.

1:10.0	It looks like a pretty nice pipeline building from St. Louis to Columbus.
1:14.5	I absolutely think it's Ezekiel Elliot effect.
