Offers are starting to roll in for the son of former Ohio State captain Jason Singleton.
It was a long time coming, but on Wednesday, Jason Singleton finally earned a scholarship offer from the program he’s been following his entire life. Ohio State has been keeping tabs on Singleton for some time now, but the rising senior and three-star guard announced Wednesday that he officially was offered an athletic scholarship by Jake Diebler and the Ohio State men’s basketball program.
Singleton is a 6-foot-4, 175-pound guard and is currently listed as the No. 175 player in the nation, the No. 17 combo guard in the 2026 class, and the seventh-best player in the state of Ohio. The Buckeyes are the fifth power conference school to offer Singleton, following Nebraska, Creighton, Xavier, and DePaul — coached by former Ohio State head man Chris Holtmann. Singleton has also received offers from Ohio, Miami (OH), Dayton, Davidson, Detroit Mercy, Eastern Michigan, Harvard, and Yale.
247Sports National Basketball Director Eric Bossi recently described Singleton, the son of former Ohio State captain Jason Singleton, one of the “fastest rising players in the class of 2026.” Bossi also noted that Singleton has a chance to crack the top-150 as he continues to ascend.
The leader of Columbus Academy’s state runner-up team this past season, Singleton helped lead the Vikings to a 28-1 record and a run all the way to the Division-V state championship game this past season, falling to Cleveland Lutheran Heights in the final game of the year. It was the school’s first state title game appearance since 1981. Singleton finished with 27 points and nine rebounds in the title game.
Despite consistent production for Columbus Academy, Singleton’s recruiting rankings have lagged behind, likely because of the quality of his opponents in the Central Buckeye League. However, if you can play, they will find you, and big-time programs are starting to find him.
He holds offers from Ohio State and Nebraska out of the Big Ten, but Northwestern has also been sniffing around. Creighton and DePaul out of the Big East have both offered. Singleton could get an elite education and potentially play in March Madness if he picks Harvard or Yale.
Even though he describes guys like Michael Redd and Scoonie Penn as “uncles” and grew up watching Ohio State football and basketball, that does not mean the Ohio State offer wraps up his recruitment. The 2026 Ohio State backcourt already a bit crowded, and the availability of minutes could play a role in his decision.
John Mobley Jr. has two more years of eligibility after this season, and will hold down a starting spot until he graduates or leaves for the NBA. Taison Chatman and Gabe Cupps both have multiple years of eligibility left, and will be fighting for big-time minutes in 2026 when Bruce Thornton graduates. Serbian freshman guard Mathieu Grujicic, who committed to Ohio State earlier this week, has four years of eligibility. Four-star guard Marcus Johnson, the No. 30 player in the 2026 class, has been committed to Ohio State for over a year now.
Singleton has not laid out a timeline of when he will make a decision or cut down any type of list of finalists. There’s a growing crowd of suitors for the tall combo guard, but a Singleton wearing an Ohio State jersey under the bright lights just seems right.
