Four-star recruit Kyle Young will follow former Butler men’s basketball head coach Chris Holtmann and staff to Ohio State, according to his Twitter account.

The 6-foot-7-inch forward was heavily recruited by Holtmann and former assistant coach Ryan Pedon to round out the highest-ranked recruiting class in program history.
