Who are Ohio's Top 100 senior football prospects heading into the 2017 season? Our annual take has arrived. Thanks to the staffs at MaxPreps (Ohio), JJHuddle.com and ScoutingOhio.com, this is the state's most comprehensive list of senior talent heading into the 2017 season. Come signing day, expect to see these names in ink. Come next year, expect to see some on TV.

Please keep in mind…this is by no means a list of the Top 100 Ohio High School Football Players. "Prospects" and "Players" differ greatly. There are some names on this list that may shock you and others you expect. Some that have outrageous stats and some that don't have any. You may also notice a few players here listed at different positions than they were on our preseason All-Ohio teams. We call that versatility…aka "football players."

Ohio cares about football. Thrives on it. Every name is here for a reason.

Note: We will release 10 names each weekday until unveiling the final 10 on Tuesday, Aug. 22.
