BUCKEYE LEGACY JEREMIAH FRANCIS DAZZLES IN WIN AT WESTERVILLE SOUTH
Jeremiah Francis has grown up in and around Ohio State basketball. Like Wesson, Francis' father, Jerry Francis, played for the Buckeyes in the 1980s and scored more than 1000 points in his career.
Performing in front of Ohio State coaches Greg Paulus and Chris Jent, one of Jerry Francis' good friends, the young sophomore Jeremiah Francis played the best game of his career. Going for a career-high 27 points, Francis was in attack mode from the opening tip.
Attacking Westerville South off the dribble, from the perimeter and especially on defense, Francis showed the full arsenal of a skill set that is ever expanding. In a game where Francis needed to take control for Pickerington Central to win, Francis did just that, sparking a 25-5 second quarter behind four first half threes.
Francis would finish the job in the second half, hitting big shots and converting at the line, while keeping the ball on a string and limiting Pickerington Central turnovers. In a game that was supposed to feature the two elite big men, it would be Francis who stole the show.
Holding offers from Nebraska, Purdue and West Virginia, Francis is on the radar of more than a dozen high-major programs, including Ohio State. Taking point guards in the 2016 and 2017 classes, it is likely that OSU will not recruit that position in 2018, which could open up a scholarship opportunity for Francis in 2019

EVALUATION
Jeremiah Francis is the No. 2 ranked player in the 2019 class, and the No. 1 point guard. A physical 6-foot-2 guard with a mature build, Francis has been a mainstay in the Pickerington Central backcourt since day one of his freshman season. A skilled ball-handler that can take defenders off the dribble to the basket, Francis can do a little bit of everything offensively. Strong and physical on the defensive perimeter, Francis is a five-tool point guard prospect that is considered among the ten best nationally in his class.
