As we start getting into the visit season for bball recruiting, I figured it'd be nice to get all the 2016 recruiting into one thread.
After two great pickups that help fill some needs on the 16-17 roster with the commitments of McGriff (4* SF/PF) and Dziagwa (3* SG), OSU has 2 scholarships remaining.
This season, the balance of the roster is right where a Ford coached team should ideally be.
2 PG
2 SG
5 Wings/Forwards (Includes Hammonds who could see time at PF this year)
4 Posts
With the graduation of Forte, Newberry, Olivier, and Allen they effectively lose 2 SG's and 2 Posts.
With the recent commitments, they will add 1 SG and 1 Wing.
This leaves a big need for Post recruits however they are still in on some big SG recruits, mainly the top 2 below
2016 Watchlist (I'll keep this updated as new info comes around). Feel free to help post any recruiting tidbits or news. I don't keep up enough to get everything
SG
KJ Santos 6-6 SG 4* visited this past weekend and from the sound of it, we're still in the mix.
Andrew Jones 6-4 Combo Guard 4*, out of MacArthur is going to be a top 100 SG and OSU is in the running to get a visit soon
Jakolby Long, local SG out of Mustang HS 3* 6-3
Posts
Darrall Willis JUCO PF, recently offered and has current offers from Wichita St, Marquette, Iowa State, and Memphis
Jarret Allen 6-9 PF
Nate Morris who has visited OSU before on an unofficial
Cameron Lard, LA PF, who is now attending the same HS as Griffin did...had an inhome with Pierre
Thon Maker, 7ft PF/C, 5* the coaching staff has remained in contact with him and hope they can get him to visit campus
