Buckeye Commits, Targets All Over ESPN Top 300 for 2017 Football Recruiting Class

Urban Meyer's success at Ohio State has led to some pretty spectacular recruiting results, but conventional wisdom says the 2017 class for the Buckeyes could be his best yet. Already at seven commitments, the class sits atop the 247Sports.com team rankings and with today's release of the ESPN.com Top 300, it would appear the "worldwide leader" is in agreement: the Buckeyes are rolling.

Four of Ohio State's seven commitments are in the top 33 players of ESPN's list. Let's take a look at the names that could shape the future of Buckeye football.

All seven Buckeye commitments are in the Top 300 and, as Urban Meyer has said, "the future is bright at Ohio State." 

It could be even brighter. 

LeCounte, Okudah, Pryor, Grimes, Paris Ford, Lamont Wade, Jaylen Harris, Darnell Ewell, Santino Marchiol and Emmanuel Greene all have the Buckeyes right at the top of their respective lists.
