These are really impressive numbers considering the shots he is taking in the highlights.

i've run into a few buckeye posters (perhaps here, certainly elsewhere) who have cited diebler's high school stats to explain his freshman season woes. they'd cite that he didn't shoot over 40% as a senior. and i'd be all...

i mean, did you watch him his senior season? the freak was literally shooting from the volleyball attack line... and that's if he wasn't shooting step-back 3s against double- and triple-teams. his senior average of 35% (maybe 37%) for those shots would have been <20% for any other mortal.

so, like you, that's why i look at mcneil's numbers/tape and think he could translate quite well to high-major ball. not only that, but his game inside the arc looks pretty nifty, too.

I wouldn't mind an offer to McNeil, his shot mechanics are certainly impressive, but I think I'd prefer we offer the home-grown kid who loves OSU and is playing better comp in the OCC and just scored 42 points to give Cincinnati Hughes their first loss in 3 years.

Maybe that's just me.

Well, it certainly is not me.

I am all about getting Ohio or local kids on scholarship to play sports at Ohio State but I do not think they deserve a scholarship just because they are a local recruit. I would take McNeil in a heartbeat over Roderick if we had the opportunity. You just do not find guys that can shoot the ball the way McNeil can and from looking at the video he seems like he is able to handle the ball pretty well also. I just read your scouting report of Roderick in his post and it does not seem like he brings anything more than McNeil would bring and he sure as hell cannot shoot like McNeil.

Ohio State men’s basketball recruiting | Buckeyes make lists for Lester Quinones and Che Evans

Ohio State isn’t necessarily done with its 2019 recruiting class, and it doesn’t yet have any commitments for its 2020 recruiting class. Coach Chris Holtmann discussed both situations last week, and you can read all about it by clicking here.

During the weekend, though, the Buckeyes have made the updated lists for a pair of recruits in both classes.

In a post to his Twitter account Sunday evening, Lester Quinones included the Buckeyes among his final seven schools under consideration. A four-star shooting guard from New York, the 6-5, 180-pound Quinones is playing for Bradenton (Florida) IMG Academy and rated as a four-star prospect, the No. 9 shooting guard in the nation and the No. 64 overall recruit according to the 247Sports.com composite.

His final seven schools are Indiana, Georgia, Maryland, Memphis, Michigan, LSU and Ohio State, in alphabetical order.

Also Sunday, four-star small forward Che Evans from Lutherville Timonium (Maryland) Dulaney announced that he had cut his list to six teams. They are, in alphabetical order: Boise State, Florida, Ohio State, TCU, Texas Tech and UCLA. According to the 247Sports.com composite rankings, Evans is the No. 147 recruit in the nation, the No. 30 small forward prospect and the No. 6 overall prospect from his state.

Evans took an unofficial visit to Ohio State last October and came away with a scholarship offer. He took an official visit to Boise State in early November and followed that with an unofficial visit to UCLA. Last week, with Texas Tech in the house, Evans reached 1,000 career points.

As the roster currently stands, the Buckeyes have one available scholarship for the 2019 class after signing a three-member class in November. That trio, featuring point guard DJ Carton and forwards Alonzo Gaffney and E.J. Liddell, is rated as the No. 10 class in the nation.
