Summary
Ohio State has commitments from five of the six Ohio offensive linemen considered the state's best by experts we cherish.
The sixth - Bishop Waterson's Davis Seaman - has an Ohio State offer. He also shined at the recent Navy All American Bowl in Texas last month and his recruitment has picked up.
Will Seaman sail across town to Ohio State? Our Garrick Hodge was in Texas for the Navy event and is here again with us today. He's got the latest.
Mark Porter is also here. He's got the Seaman video. It's worth a look.
We also discuss Ohio State's No. 4-ranked recruiting class as 247Sports have released it's final Class of 2026 rankings.
Spend 5ish with us this a.m., 'Nutters!
