Ohio State plucked one prospect out of St. Louis and off of Nike EYBL's Bradley Beal Elite squad for 2019 in four-star forward E.J. Liddell, and it hopes to go back-to-back by landing four-star wing
Cam'Ron Fletcher in 2020.
As the No. 36 overall prospect and the second-ranked player in Missouri, Fletcher has attracted interest from numerous high-major programs. The 6-foot-6, 180-pound small forward holds offers from Michigan State, Missouri, Illinois, Kansas State and others. He listed Duke, Kentucky, Louisville, Michigan, UCLA and Kansas as schools that have pursued him hard recently.
Fletcher said Ohio State coaches talk to him about three times a week. Holtmann and assistant coach Terry Johnson visited him in his hometown recently. Fletcher mentioned they've told him they like how hard he plays, his rebounding and shot-blocking, among other attributes.
"They told me they need a wing player," Fletcher said. "That's what they told me. In the 2020 class."
He said he plans to visit Ohio State.
