What Roddy Gayle's Commitment Means For Ohio State's 2022 Recruiting Class

Finding the right fit for your college basketball program isn't just about what happens on the court, but off it as well. Ohio State added a key piece. How will that commitment impact the Buckeyes?

Syracuse wanted Roddy Gayle. Connecticut wanted him. So, too, did Connecticut, Marquette, Pittsburgh, Georgetown and a slew of other schools.

Matt Bradshaw, Gayle’s coach at Lewiston Porter Senior, predicts that had Gayle – the No. 76 overall recruit and No. 1 prospect from New York in the 2022 cycle – gotten a chance to show out this spring and summer on the Nike EYBL circuit with The New York Renaissance, he would have attracted even more attention.
