COLUMBUS, Ohio — As it turns out, reports of Urban Meyer's demise on the recruiting trail were greatly exaggerated.
After a slow streak that saw Ohio State pick up just three commitments in its 2016 class over the course of the past six months, Meyer proved that recruiting can be about not only how you start but also how you finish. Landing three commitments on Monday alone, including two flips from a Big Ten East competitor, the Buckeyes once again lay claim to the nation's top-ranked recruiting class with national signing day a mere two weeks away.
