With the predictable mini-meltdown after "losing" KVA, it's important to remember a few things. First, OSU already has two commitments from high 4* LBs, both of whom were heavily recruited by ND.

Second, OSU has commitments from the top 2 players in Indiana, 5* Mylan Graham and Ian Moore. ND offered and obviously wanted both.

Third, OSU has a commitment from the top player in Chicago, 5* Justin Scott, from a private Catholic prep school there. This is an annual high priority territory for ND and Scott was a kid that ND led for and expected to get.

Fourth, OSU has a commitment from Jaylen McClain (a kid I really like), who attends a private Catholic prep school in NJ and has grades good enough to get into Ivy League schools. He's another kid ND expected to land but OSU snagged the week he was supposed to take his official visit there.

ND is having a good year recruiting but they could be having a great year if OSU wasn't absolutely spanking them on a number of guys that ND traditionally targets and signs. If KVA does sign with ND (it's a long time til NSD) then OSU won't win every battle but they've won most of them and hurt ND more than any other school in the country.
