Great article. Talks about Jared's commitment and what he brings to the table.


If this part doesn't make you smile, you're probably not a Buckeye fan.
(quote from Jared's father)
"Let me tell you something," Satch Sullinger said. "I will never forget this. After J.J. and Ohio State lost to Georgetown in the NCAA Tournament down in Dayton (in March 2006), J.J. came back out on the floor after he was dressed. His career was over and he knew he would never play for Ohio State again.

"He came back out on the court and had tears in his eyes. He hugged his brother and the first thing he said was, 'If this coaching staff offers you a scholarship, you better take it.'

"He said, 'I love them and they are the greatest thing to happen to me outside of my family.'"

"For my son to feel that way about that coaching staff, why would you not want another son to experience that? They were the No. 1 team in the country. They got to the national championship game and finished No. 2. Everything is just good there."

Welcome to the Buckeyes, Jared.

What a great story from the Dad about JJ's post-game quotes last year.

I loved JJ's desire to be a Buckeye and his heart of a lion. Jared sounds like the same type of kid. What he did as a freshman was very impressive, looks like Matta's got another good one here. Welcome to the family Jared.

The scouting report says that he does most of his work on the offensive end 8 foot and in...For him to take his game to the next level he just needs to develop that game 18 ft and in and we will have a dominating PF, and hopefully he can top out at about 6'10''...
