For Toutant, he was a three-star prospect and the No. 13 ranked player out of the state of Michigan for the 2020 recruiting class. Leroux was also a three-star prospect, but he was an in-state prospect as the No. 43 ranked player out of the state of Ohio for 2020.
Now, both young players have shed their stripes and will get to move forward and call themselves a true Buckeye. Hopefully the duo is able to grow throughout the year as their college careers get rolling.
