The Buckeyes basketball program got a whole lot stronger over the weekend.

While you were out enjoying the weekend, you might’ve missed out on your Ohio State recruiting fix.

Don’t worry! Land-Grant Holy Land is here to save the day. Sit back and relax and get caught up with some of the latest news involving the Buckeyes.

OSU lands 5-star point guard


As you may know, Ohio State isn’t just a football school.

Already holding a verbal commitment from four-star Cleveland Heights forward Alonzo Gaffney, Chris Holtmann and the basketball Buckeyes were off to a decent start to their 2019 recruiting class. Now thanks to the weekend commitment of five-star point guard DJ Carton, Ohio State is mentioned among some of the best in the country.

With at least one scholarship on the table and Carton, a Bettendorf, Iowa native now in the fold, the Buckeyes are sitting as the fourth rated 2019 recruiting class at the moment.

A top 25 recruit, Carton should add a lot to the Buckeyes on offense and defense once he arrives in Columbus. A scoring threat, and a decent facilitator of the ball, he also isn’t afraid to guard other top notch players when he isn’t trying to lead his team to points.

Averaging 23 points, five rebounds, and three assists a contest, Ohio State isn’t the only program to take a look at Carton, who reportedly sports a near 40-inch vertical. locking in well over a dozen offers, the Buckeyes beat out the likes of Big Ten foes Indiana and Michigan for his services.

Want to know more about the newest Buckeye basketball pledge DJ Carton and what he’ll add to Holtmann’s squad? Land-Grant Holy Land’s Patrick Mayhorn has you covered.
