“Obviously, Coach (Holtmann) getting fired kind of, you know, my mind was kind of racing those last few months of the basketball season, just because it’s hard to stay in the moment. That was one thing that Coach Holtmann preached to us throughout the season, but then a dramatic change like that kind of hindered everything.” Gayle said.

New Ohio State head coach Jake Diebler was Gayle’s primary recruiter in high school, and the rising junior had perhaps the closest and most unique relationship with Diebler out of anybody on last year’s team. However, the change in leadership and direction clearly made Gayle question his future with the program.

“After the the season ended I decided I would like to enter the portal, with Ohio State still being one of my options.” Gayle told Boesch.

He continued, “I just wanted to have all of my options on the table to put me and my family in the best position to reach my goals, which is having a degree and hopefully having my name called on draft night.”

“At first, when Michigan was announced as a possible landing spot, it was weird for me. Being at Ohio State for two years, I was taught to hate them, not really knowing why. But Coach Dusty and his staff reached out, and it made the most sense.”

“I felt like they put the most effort into recruiting me. Their style of play is what I want to (play), I feel like their style of play allows me to show the world who I really am — just the free basketball they play, the freelance. And great guys around me, not only that, but my teammates around me, I feel like we have a great system of people who can play off of each other, which is amazing.

Just sayin': I'm just guessing here that it all came down to the money. Bruce Thornton, Aaron Bradshaw, and Sean Stewart undoubtedly got larger NIL deals (than what Ohio State offered Gayle) which used up the major portion of the NIL money allocated to the basketball team. scUM probably offered him a better NIL package than what Ohio State offered. You compare Gayle to Thornton and he averaged fewer points, lower 3-point %, fewer steals, fewer assists, and more turnovers, etc.

scUM is welcome to his 1 30 point game out of nowhere in November and then sub 25% from 3, wild charging drives that result in turnovers and selective defense in critical moments I guess...

They think they're getting the 2nd coming of Jalen Rose too

Just watched some of the TCUN/TCU game.

He's still the same player. If anything, he's forcing stuff more now than he was last year which is hilarious.

Lmao that would be a lot

 

[Steve19]

Who is Roddy Gale Jr. I don't remember anyone by that name.

Just in the last minute of the game he took an awful 3 and followed it up with a totally out of control drive to the basket.

TCUN was up 10 at the time, mind you.
