I picked Ohio State for Emeka Egbuka and flipped Troy Stellato to Clemson.
After talking to some people I feel pretty good about where Ohio State stands with Egbuka. That isn't a change from my previous thinking, and I don't see a commitment coming in the immediate future, but in digging around about the top 4 drop coming later today, I feel confident enough about where the Buckeyes stand to put this pick in.
With Stellato, I think his relationship with Brian Hartline and Keenan Bailey is really strong, maybe the best of any school. That alone could make a pick to OSU unsurprising. But the fact visits can't happen hurts Ohio State with this particular situation. Clemson got a visit right before the forced dead period--that was a great trip for Stellato and definitely gave the Tigers the momentum. That, coupled with a more attractive path to the field earlier on. I think it makes Clemson the pick, especially with Stellato not wanting to wait all that long for a decision, from what I hear.
