Well, Roderick Smith (Ft. Wayne, IN) told everyone that he would commit in July, and he wasted no time committing to the Buckeyes on July 1st. This is a huge get for the Buckeyes because Smith is not only talented, but he fits the mold of a Ohio State runner. At 6'3'' 220 pounds he possesses the size of a physical runner, and also has a great burst (4.5 forty) to get to outside an outrun guys in the secondary. Berry and Hyde are obviously both studs just a class ahead, but folks watch out for Roderick!
Smith is the second commit for the Buckeyes in the last week, and things are starting to heat up for the 2010 class. Tressel and the staff now have seven commitments in the class, and should have some much needed momentum going into the month of July. Things have been slow at best for this class, but I have a feeling the summer still has some surprises.
