The door is open for J.T. Tuimoloau to play basketball at Ohio State, but he hasn't joined Chris Holtmann's squad yet.
Asked about the possibility of Tuimoloau playing basketball for the Buckeyes on Tuesday, Holtmann said the door is open for Tuimoloau to join the team but that no final decision has been made on whether he will.
“I think we’re a ways away from him stepping onto a court,” Holtmann said. “Ryan (Day) and I will have conversations. It’ll, I’m sure, ultimately will come down to what the young man and his family really want to do.
