Predicting Aaron Scott, KJ Bolden, Eddrick Houston and more to complete Ohio State's 2024 recruiting class
With two more commitments from last weekend's batch of official visits, Ohio State now has 16 for its 2024 recruiting class. How large will that class grow -- and more importantly, who will be in it?
