COLUMBUS, OHIO

Class of 2028 Recruits

Every name Ohio State has landed in the class of 2028, numbered in the order they pledged. Each one has a profile carrying 247Sports, ESPN, Eleven Warriors and Rivals side by side, in each service’s own words. In this cycle they do not agree, and the row says where.

4 PROFILES / 4 OUTLETS COMPARED

Commits

A position, a measurement or a high school is printed here only where every outlet that states it states the same thing. Where they split, the value is left off and the field is named instead: the numbers themselves live on each man’s profile with the service that published them attached.

Two 2028 pages, and they do different jobs. This one is the index: one line per commit, built to be scanned and to get you into a profile. The 2028 commit board is the reading, where every man gets a card and every outlet gets its own row in a table, with the class rank and how the board is sourced. Nothing on either page is averaged, merged or reconciled.

Why so much of this class is disputed. Signing day for 2028 is more than a year out, which is when a rating is at its softest and when the services are still measuring these players for the first time. That is a fact about the cycle, not a fault in any one outlet, so the honest thing to publish is all of their answers rather than an average nobody printed. There is no 2028 watch list here yet: a name goes on a board only when a named outlet ties him to Ohio State in print, and 2028 does not get a looser standard than the cycle above it.

The class that is actually about to sign is 2027, where 19 commits, the targets still on the board and the recruits who chose elsewhere all have profiles of their own at 2027 recruits. Board moves break first on @buckeye.recruits and land here with the full story on the wire.
