The Buckeyes are wasting no time preparing for the upcoming season, as the majority of their 2025 recruiting class has already arrived on campus. Out of the 26 high school recruits who signed with Ohio State during the early signing period in December, 21 have officially enrolled and are set to participate in winter workouts and spring practice.
Five members of the class have yet to enroll: running back Anthony “Turbo” Rogers, tight end Brody Lennon, defensive end Epi Sitanilei, defensive tackle Maxwell Roy, and cornerback Jordyn Woods.
Alongside the high school prospects, Ohio State has also brought in six transfer players this semester. The new additions include running back CJ Donaldson, tight end Max Klare, offensive tackles Phillip Daniels and Ethan Onianwa, defensive end Logan George, and linebacker Ty Howard.
