Wait so ESPN drops the 2027 class rankings and we are barely inside the top 25 again. Meanwhile I am watching Ohio State and Oregon stacking blue-chips like they are playing Madden on easy mode. And the position of need that keeps me up at night? Defensive line. We have been chasing pass rushers and interior bodies through the portal for two years now and we still cannot get a 247 composite 4-star DT to commit in a regular year. Every June OV we bring in these edge rushers who take picturse in the jersey and then flip to Georgia or Texas A&M when the bag drops. The staff is doing the work on the trail but the 247 composite numbers do not lie. We need to lock down at least two 5-tech types in this 2027 class or we are going to get mauled in Big Ten trench play again. Crystal balls keep pointing to a few names but I need to see the paperwork before I believe it.
