247 profile shows offers from DePaul, Drake, Illinois, Indiana, Indiana State, Kansas State, Nebraska, Northern Illinois and now Ohio State. It appears Shaka Smart at Texas has also recently offered. Was not on a lot of radars as he was previously committed to play baseball at Missouri. After reading about the kid I am a big fan of this offer.

Couple of articles from December and January:



Henricksen: Red-hot Mark Smith of Edwardsville no longer an unknown

Ohio State offers a player in the 2017 class.
The Buckeyes offered another ball-handler in the 24 hours around the loss to Nebraska. Mark Smith, a four-star 2017 point guard from Edwardsville, Ill., received an offer from the Buckeyes.

The 6-foot-4, 225-pound Smith is rated the No. 25 point guard in the class, and the No. 107 prospect in the country. The offer to Smith is interesting because the Buckeyes have another point guard already signed for 2017 in Braxton Beverly, and Thad Matta hinted on National Signing Day that they were likely done adding players for this cycle.
