Ohio's top two prospects and two more elite talents originally from the Buckeye State headline Ohio State's targets in the 2025 recruiting class.
Now that all but one of Ohio State’s scholarships for the 2024-25 basketball season is filled following some work in the transfer portal, the talent acquisition objective for Jake Diebler and his staff has shifted to the 2025 recruiting class.Ohio’s Mr. Basketball this past season.
The Buckeyes were the fifth program to offer him as a freshman and have been in the mix for his commitment since. They are not without challengers for the nation’s No. 53 prospect, however. Jones took official visits to Missouri and Rutgers earlier this year and will visit Michigan in June. A first-team All-Ohio selection, Jones averaged 14.1 points per game for Division IV state champion Richmond Heights.
The No. 3 overall prospect and No. 1 shooting guard in the 247Sports composite, Peterson would be about as big a splash as Diebler could make on the recruiting trail this cycle. It will be a long battle for his services, however.Ohio’s No. 1 prospect is very much in the sights of Diebler, visiting Ohio State this fall to follow up on an additional visit he took last summer.
Set to visit Ohio State officially this fall, Easter joins Peterson in being from Ohio originally, averaging 32.3 points per game for Emmanuel Christian before transferring from the D-IV high school to La Lumiere School in Indiana.
