Wow, OSU is loaded with RB's. Bit of a surprise they keep bringing these top RB with a roster already filled, as well as others committed.

Well there are 0 RBs in the 2011 class.

You have

Sr: Saine
JR: Boom
Soph: Hall
Fresh: Hyde Berry
Redshirting Freshman: Smith
Incoming: Ball and Dunn

So Hall will be a SR when Ball and Dunn are freshman, I assume one or both will redshirt.

Don't forget:
Carlos Hyde- freshman
Rod Smith- fresman

People are pretty high on both of these guys. Many compare Smith with George as far as size/talent.

Is that Beanie?

Dude does not look 220 lbs, and that is the ultimate compliment. Runs really well for his size and looks have to quick feet.

Shell has been quoted as saying OSU is still his leader. He also stated that he wants to go somewhere he will not redshirt. If I am tressel I tell him OK and let Dunn and/or Ball redshirt and let the best back win. You do not say no to a player like shell. Dunn and Ball would be great LBs too if they wanted to bed.

They already have. They will hopefully end up with about 20 scholarships for 2012. They will fit him in the class if he wants in though. Like I said no one will turn Shell away.

This guy is a freight train. Hopefully he can redshirt his freshman year to get a little more size and run over the college boys like he does the high schoolers.

Rule out Rushel Shell, he wants to play as a true freshman that wont happen at Ohio State....

Obviously not saying the talent level is near the same, but this guy's running style reminds me a lot of Eddie George. If his production could be half of that, the Buckeyes are looking at a pretty good back.

If he gets much bigger, he might end up on the defensive side of the ball. I think he's already about 6'1" 220lb.

Not so fast my friend. I think we still have a good of shot as others. Before this we were the clear cut favorite.

Dunn is a big kid already, I think he will play around 230 240 in college much like Beanie.

I'm not saying it can't happen, but since he doesn't play defense in high school I would think he wouldn't be moved over there in college.

This kid is HUGE! I'm not sure we want him getting any "bigger" than he already is.
