The Ohio State coaches were enamored of Greg Oden the person during a recruiting visit to Columbus. There was a football game that weekend and because it was an unofficial visit, Oden had to pay much of the cost. He did pass through tailgaters outside Ohio Stadium, met folks, saw the game and, apparently, had a good time.
"It's not unusual for us to get letters from parents after visits just thanking you for everything during the visit," said John Groce, the Buckeyes' associate head coach.
