The Buckeyes incoming class has been tabbed the #1 class. 
I'm a big wrestling fan and wrestled in high school.  I've also been lucky enough to watch some of these incoming freshman wrestle at the state tournament so I know first hand these guys are good.  Not only is OSU doing well but the whole Big10 is doing very well..

Wow.  Pretty impressive that we're getting this good at wrestling as well.  I've been a little out of touch with the HS wrestling scene for a few years but Dave5 probably knows about many or all of these kids that come from Ohio.

The wrestling team made nice steps last season making good showings in both the Big10 and National tournament. With this recruiting class coming in, I can see this team making a run for the Big10 in the 08-09 season and quite possibly a national title.
The two best guys from this class is Sean Nemec and Colt Sponseller. I've seen both of these guys and they are very good. Nemec was teammates with Lance Palmer at St. Eds now they're teaming up at OSU.
