Sonny Johnson Could Be Building an Ohio State Pipeline at Garfield Heights

Welcome to Full Court Press, our basketball version of The Hurry Up. Full Court Press will appear weekly during the basketball offseason, with hoops recruiting in full swing.

Alonzo Gaffney's April 10th commitment to Ohio State gave Chris Holtmann his first big recruit since arriving in Columbus. The top recruit in the state for the 2019 class, Gaffney is the kind of player that can start immediately for the Buckeyes when he arrives on campus, and a talent that Holtmann can build his program around.

His talent is not lost on anyone, especially his high school head coach Sonny Johnson, who told Eleven Warriors that not only is Gaffney physically gifted, but also has the desire to further elevate his game.
