2006 - 5-star Daequan Cook convinces 5-stars David Lighty and Mike Conley to come to OSU. The NBA age limit forces otherwise #1 NBA draft pick Greg Oden to go to college, and its a no brainer that he join his AAU teammates (Cook, Lighty, Conley) at OSU. Drew Lavender coming to OSU from OU is simply icing on the cake. Raymar Morgan is also a strong possibility.
2008 - Top-25 frosh BJ Mullens has already committed, and other top national talent is located nearby with interest in OSU. |
Did I miss something, or is your future wish-list missing the entire subject of this thread?
2007 - OJ Mayo, the second person to win three Mr. Basketball in Ohio awards, joins the Buckeyes along with center Dallas Lauderdale. The young Buckeyes win their second straight Big 10 title and reach the Final Four in back-to-back years for the first time since the early 60s.
