Dispatch beat writer Adam Jardy is a Bynum believer. If Jardy's instincts are correct, Bynum will be a big part of the team his freshman year.

Is it too early to talk 2028 recruiting? OSU getting first on-campus visit from Cincinnati's Kameron Mercer.

Again with the roster as-is, I see Royal taking over the 3. Noel the main guy at the 4, but probably others Royal, Bynum and Tilly there depending on matchups and foul trouble. Ojianwuna and Tilly should basically be a platoon at the 5, with Bynum 3rd string & Ivan as emergency backup. Bynum...

With the roster as-is, Brandon Noel is likely the starting PF. I actually see Ojianwuna starting at the 5, if he is healthy.

OSU is planning a Valentine's Day game vs Virginia. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.elevenwarriors.com/ohio-state-basketball/2025/06/156698/ohio-state-and-virginia-schedule-non-conference-game-for-valentines-day%3famp Edit: the expectation is the game will be at a neutral site, possibly...

You say that, but have you considered Calipari wanted it at first, then found out OSU didn't want to invest in NIL at the right level? That ship sailed pretty quickly. IMO, most roads are leading back to the conclusion of NIL not being sufficient to make OSU a national power in men's...

If you thought Dorian Jones was the key to the future, you've mis-evaluated. No one was saying Jones was the key to lead this team to the tournament or a B1G title next season - in fact, it was doubtful that he would have been in the playing group in big games. Clearly we have not gotten the...

Oh yeah, his dad was a floor general for real.

They have those at junior college and prep school?

I tell you what, if the apple didn't fall far from the tree, OSU ought to try really hard to recruit this young man. Jason Singleton Sr. stuck through some tough times at OSU and was a key part of the turnaround in 1999. His dad is a good man and if his parenting is anything like his other...

Well it seems like this ship has sailed. I doubt Jones will ever enroll at OSU now that he has reopened his recruitment due to academics. Some have said it could be a 1-year prep school thing & he could try and come back to OSU, but college teams generally aren't gonna just hold a scholarship...

So now with Herro and Gruj added, I believe there is still one spot left. I think they are still looking to add a 1-year SF starter. Puff Johnson could be an option if he gets another year of eligibility - he played in 17 games last year before being injured and was out for the year on January...

I think this addition makes sense as long as they are planning to use him at SG and not SF.

You got something against Gru? You probably stopped watching "Despicable Me" before it was over.

Some are saying he is basically a walk-on, but on scholarship because walk-ons have to be on scholarship now since the roster limit is up to 15 players and all are on scholarship.
