Ohio State Football: Recruiting class filling up in a ‘big’ way

Ryan Day’s latest commit was a big get as the four-star offensive tackle flipped his commitment to join the 2020 Ohio State recruiting class.

While the 2020 Ohio State recruiting class is far from being a finished product the offensive line unit is full. Yesterday Grant Toutant announced he was decommitting from Penn State and will play for the Scarlet and Gray.

That gives Ryan Day five offensive linemen in his 2020 class.

Toutant is a four star offensive tackle from Warren,Michigan. He is ranked as the 27th best tackle and the No. 325 player overall in the 247Sports Composite.

Landing Toutant is further proof of what coach Day looks for in tackle recruits, size. He is listed at 6 ft. 7, 320 pounds and isn’t the tallest tackle in the class.

That honor goes to Tayler Leroux who stands 6 ft. 8 and weighs 355 pounds. Parris Johnson, the No. 1 OT in the 2020 class, is 6 ft. 7 1/2 . 295 pounds.

Coach Day may want to keep Ohio State basketball coach Chris Holtmann away from these three guys. He may try to recruit at least one to play power forward during the winter.

Now for the “little” offensive linemen in the 2020 class.

Jakob James is a three star tackle from Cincinnati. He is listed at 6 ft.5, 275 pounds.

The smallest of the offensive linemen is Lule Wepler, the No. 1 center in the 2020 class. He is 6 ft. 3 ½ and weighs 285 pounds.

Offensive line coach Greg Studrawa will certainly have plenty of big, talented players to work with in the future,

Ryan Day is off to an excellent start in his first recruiting class and he has many of the pieces filled in on offense. Now the attention will be on running backs and tight ends. There is still plenty of work to do on the other side of the ball though, so that will be an interesting situation going forward.
