Relationships with Coaches, Players Attracted Ibrahima Diallo to Ohio State

Ibrahima Diallo knew. He didn’t publicize his feelings, but he knew.

Two weeks ago, Diallo told himself he would commit to Ohio State. But he took his time, passing the end of March, which he planned to commit by, because he felt he needed more days to ensure his “big decision” would be the correct choice. Not until Sunday did he announce his commitment, calling the coaches to let Chris Holtmann and the rest of the staff know he will become a Buckeye.

“They were so excited,” Diallo told Eleven Warriors on Tuesday.
