Since landing D.J. Carton in July, Ohio State has spent the past few months looking for the perfect final recruit to add to their 2019 class. With a true point guard in Carton and a scoring wing in Alonzo Gaffney already in the class, Chris Holtmann and his staff knew they needed a physical, dominant big to really put a bow on an awesome class, and fill the hole left by Jae’Sean Tate’s departure.
Ohio State thinks they’ve found that perfect fit in Belleville, Illinois power forward E.J. Liddell, and after months of recruiting, he announced his commitment to Ohio State today.
