No. 4 Julian Fleming | Class of 2020

Another player hailing from Pennsylvania, Julian Fleming has yet to take the field for the Buckeyes. The 6’2 wide receiver was the No. 3 rated recruit nationally in the 2020 class and is primed to join in on the recent success at the wide receiver position in Columbus.

With an official 40-yard dash time of 4.45 seconds, Fleming tore up the competition at Southern Columbia high school in Pennsylvania. He amassed 183 receptions for 3,942 yards, and 55 receiving touchdowns in his three years there.

His size and speed make him one of the most exciting prospects Ohio State has ever had, and should only beef up an already loaded wide receiver core.

If the Buckeyes can get anything close to what most out of Fleming’s potental he will have an outstanding college career.

This just speaks volumes of how well Ryan Day and his staff have already done on the recruiting trail. To already have recruited one of the top five rated players in Ohio State football is not an easy feat.

It is an accomplishment that Urban Meyer only achieved with Noah Spence, and with our next player on the list Day has now done it twice.
