Two more remain, both equally critical, starting this weekend.
There will be no shortage of premier prospects on campus starting Friday, with 10 official visitors in total making the trip to OSU. Eight of them are defensive players. Four of the 10 recruits visiting are five-star prospects: safety KJ Bolden, defensive lineman Eddrick Houston, defensive end Dylan Stewart and cornerback Kobe Black. Of those four, Ohio State is only considered the favorite for Houston entering the weekend and will have plenty of work to do if it wants to convince the other three to suit up for the scarlet and gray next year.
