13 scholarships, 14 takers
If you do the math on how many players Ohio State could have on scholarship in two years, it exceeds the NCAA maximum by one.
Thirteen can be on scholarship at any one time. Nine sophomores and freshmen are on scholarship now. Five recruits from the class of 2010 have made oral commitments to join the Buckeyes that year. Nine plus five equals 14. I?m a whiz with numbers.

He would love to add 6-foot-9 Adreian Payne of Dayton Jefferson so he can spread his 7-4 wingspan in the lane alongside Jared Sullinger?s wide body. A Payne commitment would make 15 scholarships spoken for. Other prospects in the class also are still being evaluated by the coaches.
How does this glut get resolved? Attrition, in any number of ways.
