NIL Daily/Sports Illustrated  |  Oct 27, 2024

The Ohio State Buckeyes have earned their place as one of the true college football giants, with a legacy from the sport’s early days to the modern era. Boasting several national championships, top-tier recruits, and consistent appearances in the College Football Playoff, the Buckeyes are a staple in conversations about college football’s elite.

This dominance has only been reinforced since the start of the NIL era, with Ohio State continuing to assemble rosters packed with some of the most talented athletes in the country, much to the ire of other programs. Rather than being slowed down by these changes, Ohio State has found a way to strengthen its position, building rosters that blend talent and experience through a combination of legacy, development, and resources.
