With the ink barely dry from the signatures on the letters of intent for the class of 2009, the Ohio State faithful got big news today in the form of a commitment for the class of 2010. Offensive lineman Andrew Norwell, 6-7, 270lbs out of Cinncinatti, OH gave his verbal commitment to the Ohio State Buckeyes to become the third member of the class. Norwell is ranked as the #2 player in the state of Ohio and a possible four or five star recruit when rankings come out for the class of 2010. In other news Ohio State did lose out on four-star receiver Marlon Brown earlier today. Sources as early as today seemed to be convinced that Brown was going to choose the Buckeyes but ultimately he went where people had always thought he was going... Georgia.
All and all the Buckeyes signed everyone they expected to sign today and the Ohio State recruiting class of 2009 has been rated consistently in the top four by various national recruiting services. Ohio State is ranked as high as #1 by Scout.com. This makes the 2nd season in a row where Ohio State's class has been ranked in the top five nationally.
