Basketball BOOM!! Three-star PG Myles Herro commits to Ohio State

The Buckeyes also offered 2028 blue-chip safety and saw more recruits react to their weekend visit to Columbus.
The Ohio State football team had a rather quiet Monday, all things considered. This was a well deserved slower day as the team just wrapped up a busy and important recruiting weekend which saw three five-star recruits visit with the Buckeyes, and there were many other priority targets on campus as well.
A slow day doesn’t mean a quiet day however, as the Buckeyes still found a way to make the recruiting headlines to start the week both on the gridiron and the hardwood.
Possibly the biggest recruiting news of the day featuring Ohio State took place on the hardwood as Jake Diebler and the Ohio State men’s basketball team opened the week up with a BOOM!
2025 three-star point guard Myles Herro (Milwaukee, WI / Whitnall) announced his commitment to Diebler and the Buckeyes on Monday.
Herro is the brother of NBA All-Star and Miami Heat shooting guard Tyler Herro. He does not hold a ranking in the 247Sports Composite Rankings for the class of 2025, but 247Sports own rankings has him as a three-star and the No. 40 point guard in the cycle.
Herro is the third traditional commitment in the 2025 cycle, joining four-star center A’mare Bynum and four-star shooting guard Dorian Jones, although Jones has delayed his enrollment due to academic eligibility issues. Ohio State also brought in four transfer commitments in the cycle in four-star centers Joshua Ojianwuna and Christoph Tilly as well as four-star power forward Brandon Noel and four-star point guard Gabe Cupps.
Ohio State safeties coach Matt Guerrieri extended a scholarship offer to a rising safety in the 2028 recruiting class on Monday as Casey Barner (Atlanta, GA / Douglass) took to social media to show off the offer.
Barner is the first safety to receive a scholarship offer from Ohio State in the 2028 recruiting class and it will likely be a priority position for the Buckeyes in the class. It is obviously very early in Barner’s recruitment, but he is already building an impressive offer sheet. Ohio State is joining the likes of BYU, Florida State, Georgia, Missouri, Nebraska, Penn State, Tennessee, UCF, Wisconsin and others.
Because it is so early in his recruitment, no team has established itself as a front runner in his recruitment, but Florida State looks to have the early head start in his recruitment as he attended their Junior Day camp back in January of this year.
The 5-foot-11, 175-pound safety does not yet hold a star ranking from 247Sports, but when they release their rankings for the 2028 class, he will likely be near the top of the list.
Ohio State continued to see recruits take to social media on Monday talking about their recent visit with the Buckeyes over the weekend. Below are just some of the big name prospects that were able to make the trip to Columbus.
All rankings are via the 247Sports Composite.
