LeBron James and the Ohio State Buckeyes are tight, just ask John Gotti

COLUMBUS, Ohio – In tweets and on campus, during interviews and at the national championship game, LeBron James is a Buckeyes fan.

Well known. Abundantly documented. James likes, no, loves Ohio State. Got it.

So, when James and the Cavaliers come to campus for preseason games, like tonight's tilt at Value City Arena against Memphis, James' close relationship to Ohio State athletics comes up.

From James' locker and wall of his Nike signature shoes at the Schottenstein Center, to his friendship with football coach Urban Meyer, the school promotes James' fandom as much as he does.
