The Ohio State Buckeyes have dominated the 2025 recruiting cycle and boast some of the top recruits in the country.

After a disappointing early exit last year in the College Football Playoff, and three straight losses to TTUN, this season could be the best opportunity for the Buckeyes to win the Big Ten in a while.

Coach Ryan Day is clearly focused on the upcoming campaign, the recruiting process never stops. And Day & Co. have the top recruiting class for the 2025 cycle per ESPN.

"The Buckeyes missed the College Football Playoff last season, but they're signaling a return to the national title mix soon. They signed a top-five class and have made headlines with impactful transfer portal additions in 2024. While those efforts are exciting, OSU is also enjoying great success with its 2025 class. Defensively, the Buckeyes have commitments from three of the nation's four best cornerback prospects in Offord, Devin Sanchez and Blake Woodby. Offord is a versatile high school player who projects to defense with outstanding quickness and an aggressive style of play.

"The 6-foot-2 Sanchez has coveted length. He also has the speed and suddenness to match up with a variety of receivers. Sanchez could be in the mold of current Buckeyes standout corner Denzel Burke. Woodby is a versatile player with excellent speed and exudes the confidence needed to play the position."

The Buckeyes already have a wealth of riches at the quarterback position for 2024 with Julian Sayin and Air Noland, but they continue to add arms for 2025, starting with St. Clair.

While expectations for 2024 are high as Day enters his sixth full season in Columbus, excuses are running out for the lack of a national championship. The 2024 and 2025 seasons will include some of the best talent Day has seen in his time with the Buckeyes.
