Never Forget 31-0
DJ FUNDERBURK
DISMISSED ON JUNE 30, 2017
Funderburk became the latest Cleveland native to pledge to Ohio State on April 1, 2015, eventually signing with Ohio State seven months later. Though he was ranked a top-100 overall prospect, the center redshirted as a freshman and never played a game for the Buckeyes. Soon after getting hired, Holtmann suspended him for a “failure to meet team expectations” on June 15, 2017. Two weeks later, Funderburk got dismissed from the team by the new head coach.
He ended up at Northwest Florida State for a year before, like Beverly, he joined North Carolina State’s team. Coming off the bench in 2018-19 after sitting out a season, Funderburk averaged 8.8 points and 4.2 rebounds per game. He managed 12.8 points and 6.1 rebounds per game last season and now has one year of eligibility remaining.
