I really don't think Sawyer R is going to stay at WR. He'll get a shot there because they told him he would but I think the ultimate plan is to move him to D. If Gee wants to commit here they'll take it.
So Racanelli is all WR in every interview, McMillan isn't going anywhere, Rome is priority one moving forward, LV is a silent commit and stud, Bryant is a take no matter what, and Gee Jr. is a take no matter what.
I mentioned a bit ago how Ohio State also had a 5* #2WR in the country and 4* top 100 WR in the 2019 class. Gee is a big time Recruit, but he's like 5th on the totem pole with the guys he'll be competing with

If he is afraid of competition he will end up sucking anyways. He thinks he is going to play and rightfully so. He should. He was offered early and they wanted him. Good for him.

I don't look at it quite that way myself. I think Gee can hold his own with a crop of elite WR recruits, but to me the intangible is that Gee will be a West Coast kid coming all the way across country and most of those kids will be from within driving distance of home and it just kind of has the potential to be a more difficult assimilation process for kids from further away.

One of them's from Texas and one is from St Louis. None of them are from Ohio.

St. Louis to Columbus is about a 6 hour drive...that is nothing.
Seems likely Gee will rise in the next 247 rankings, per Huffman and his performance at the opening. Could easily be #2 WR of the OSU WR's with a small bump. I don't think this last WR commit means much because Cooper is a slot guy, so unless they get another commit - and they aren't currently "in" on any other WR's they've offered ranked near Scott - I don't think it means much.

I am sure location of the recruits hometown will factor into the depth chart when they determine playing time.
The table is set for Gee now that he has the Washington offer. Of course his initial response was to brush it off and oversell his undying love for the school he is committed to (tOSU).
Now, however, he has 5-7 months to think about it and possibly come up with a story for why he flips.
During that time he will likely stop by a few UW games or practices, 90% of the random people in his ear will likely be telling him how awesome it would be if he stayed home, and several of his teammates could commit to UW and start getting on him.
He will never say, "The UW offer meant a lot to me and it's where I wanted to go" but he could devise one of the following stories to corroborate a "respect my decision. No interviews" tweet. - tOSU wasnt showing him enough love, didnt prioritize him - desire to stay home/ be a hometown hero won out - made a great connection to Junior Adams
Of course, the major caveat here is whether he has enough time to go through all this. If Rome and Bunkley or Bryant commit, Pete would likely shut down WR recruiting altogether.

I imagine the board now will be either Scott or Rome and LV or Bryant. Just can't see Pete taking any committments before getting Rome and Bryant on visits. All speculation of course.
_ "coach adams" got to know me better and assured that the process was unnecessarily slow and they have prioritized me and my fsp boys ... Sam has been working me like mad lately..."

I feel like this is inevitable *IF* UW really wants him and is willing to wait for him to decommit.
I'm not sure that's the case though.
I could see UW shutting WR recruiting down by mid August or early September at the latest and if that's the case I'm not sure Scott will be in the boat yet.
If we take two more WR commits and Scott's still a Buckeye, I think it's over it.

Divide by two, carry the one, aaaaand...
...we're at 26 receivers on the roster.

This one could go either way IMO.
