The summer season of recruiting is upon us and there will surely be changes to Ohio State football recruits and others across the nation.
This is the time when players work on their games, get reps against some of the best local and national competitions in camp settings, and prepare themselves for the upcoming season.
For the 2024 class, this is their last go around and another opportunity to impress the rankers. In an update to their class rankings, 247Sports has made a few changes as the camp season is starting to get underway. Find out where each current Ohio State commit landed on their updated Top 247 rankings.

No. 47 - Air Noland

Bio
The future Buckeye quarterback moves north in the rankings from No. 59 to No. 47. Noland has impressed this summer in the camp setting and could continue to move up. The lefty stands 6-foot, 3 inches, and weighs 195 pounds.
No. 94 - James Peoples
Coming Back Home Soon‼️#ToteNation 🌰@CoachRLarkin @Ryan9Mayhew @e_dunston @Bucknuts247 @Birm @SWiltfong247 @adamgorney @kirk_barton pic.twitter.com/QoFY7dN3I4

A drop for the 5-foot, 10-inch, and 192 pound Peoples, who was previously ranked No. 77 overall. He’s still inside the top 100 and could make his way back up to his previous spot.
No. 130 - Garrett Stover

Stover made a small move up, going from No. 138 after performing well at numerous camps. The 6-foot, 195 pound defender is ranked as a linebacker but could end up as a safety.
No. 154 - Ian Moore

The highest-rated Buckeye offensive lineman commitment dropped from his previous ranking of No. 112. It’s not easy to predict this position and the 6-foot, 5-inch, 295 pound Moore is still one of the best in the country.
No. 190 - Payton Pierce

Another Buckeye that took a rankings hit was Pierce. The 6-foot, 1-inch, and 225 pound linebacker was previously ranked as the No. 159 best player in the country.
