Quinn Ewers might be good at playing quarterback.
Following a recent ratings bump by Rivals this week, the five-star Ohio State quarterback commit is now the No. 1-ranked overall player in the 2022 class, and he has a perfect 1.000 composite rating.

That makes Ewers the No. 1-ranked recruit in Ohio State history in the modern recruiting era, which dates back to 1999. He is now ranked ahead of both Terrelle Pryor (0.9997 rating in the 2008 class), who was the previously highest-ranked signee in Buckeye history, and Ted Ginn Jr. (0.9992 rating in the 2004 class).
Ewers has been hailed as the best quarterback prospect since Trevor Lawrence in the 2018 class. Lawrence finished his recruiting cycle with a 0.9999 composite rating, and Justin Fields finished with a 0.9998 in the same class. Vince Young is the only quarterback to finish with a 1.000.
If Ewers maintains that perfect rating when he signs with the Buckeyes, he will be just the sixth signee in the modern recruiting era to finish with a perfect score, joining Young, Jadeveon Clowney, Robert Nkemdiche, Rashan Gary and Ernie Sims.
Ewers committed to the Buckeyes on November 19, adding to their No. 1-ranked overall class in the 2022 cycle.
