As the 2015 high school football season nears its end, Rivals.com has released their updated Top 100 list and a handful of Ohio State commitments and targets remain among the country's best prospects.
New Jersey defensive lineman Rashan Gary, who the Buckeyes' Larry Johnson Sr. is expected to visit Monday night, is ranked as the nation's best overall prospect.
Nick Bosa is the lone five-star Buckeye pledge, checking it No. 16 on the list, down one spot from the August rankings.
Cincinnati Archbishop Moeller tight end Jake Hausmann moved up six spots to No. 56 while Gahanna's Jonathon Cooper, one of the biggest risers in the August release, dropped from No. 57 to No. 63.
The final Buckeye commit in the Top 100 is North Ridgeville, Ohio, running back Demario McCall. He dropped one spot to No. 78 after missing most of his senior season with assorted injuries.
Penn State is only other Big Ten school with more than one commitment in the Top 100 (Miles Sanders at No. 64, Michal Menet at No. 86).
Former Ohio State commits Kareem Walker and Terrell Hall are among the biggest movers. Walker lost his fifth star, dropping from No. 21 to No. 42. Hall took the other route, moving from No. 54 to No. 14, earning his fifth star from Rivals in the process.
Only five players in the Rivals top 20 have made a college choice. A skeptic might be able to convince folks that non-committed players get a bit of a bump as the cycle nears its end in order to increase the drama around signing day.
