When Ohio State inked Derek Funderburk and Micah Potter during college basketball's early-signing period back in November, it was thought the Buckeyes' 2016 recruiting class was signed, sealed and delivered. With those two additions, plus the state of Ohio State's roster at the time — with no seniors, one junior and the rest sophomores and freshmen — there were no more spots available for the Buckeyes to add players.
But things changed drastically over the next several months as Austin Grandstaff decided to transfer from the program in December and then Daniel Giddens, A.J. Harris and Mickey Mitchell followed suit at the conclusion of the season.
