07 is done...

08 I think they are looking for 1 more player and would probably like a PF type guy. Unless they can get a super recruit that would take that last ship...

Then go after Cousins in 09.:biggrin: I am still suprised that Matta doesnt have any verbals for the 2009 class yet, he must be slacking in his efforts...:tongue2:

OK let's say that they do not get Gates, Roe or Babbitt for 2008. Would they be better off banking a schollie four 2009 so they would have two? Just a thought.

That could very well be in the plans if they all go elsewhere, but at this point it seems the staff would like to add a guy that could add depth for the PF spot...

Ohio State would like to add another player in the 2008 class and are concentrating on the PF spot....if it doesn't happen, no worries. Matta has already targeted some of the top players in the 2009 class including PF Tyler Griffey, PF Stephen Van Tresse, SG Xavier Henry, C/PF DeMarcus Cousins....and many more.....

Ohio State set for years to come

By Jerry Meyer, Rivals.com

Rivals.com ranked Ohio State's 2006 recruiting class second only to North Carolina's haul of 2006 standouts. UNC coach Roy Williams and the Buckeyes' Thad Matta are reaping immediate dividends from their freshmen. Each team is positioning itself to make a deep run in the NCAA Tournament.
The difference in the two programs is that North Carolina does not have a prospect signed or committed for the class of 2007 or 2008. Matta, on the other hand, has followed up his "Thad Five" of 2006 with another group of five standouts in the 2007 class.

More in the article:

Ohio State's 2007 class currently holds the No. 6 spot in the country. If that weren't enough prosperity for the Buckeyes, four top 100 prospects out of the 2008 class have already committed to play their college ball at Ohio State. As it stands now, Ohio State has the No. 1 2008 class in the country by a landslide.

Way to go Thad!!!
