We aren't even the top school in our region of the state. While we may steal a few from OSU, X, and UC, right now all 3 are recruiting at a much higher level than we are and typically get the better Ohio recruits.

I agree with you! Don May is the perfect example of the point you make above as he grew up a UD fan his whole life and he realized his dream!
I also agree that all 3 of the above schools are recruiting at a much higher level than we are mostly just because of the conferences they are in (Big Ten, Big East and AAC). I have a friend who invited me to the X game at the Cintas Center last evening against Hampton in a 96-60 win and I noticed first hand the talent of their recruits, especially the freshmen and sophomores who played a lot of minutes. They have 3 seniors that will graduate but will probably not miss a beat next season!
