What Ibrahima Diallo's Commitment Means for Ohio State's 2019 Recruiting Class

Finding the right fit for your college basketball program isn't just about what happens on the court, but off it as well. Today, Ohio State added a key piece. How will that commitment impact the Buckeyes?

Ohio State landed a commitment on Sunday from Ibrahima Diallo, a 7-foot, 226-pound center who attends Prolific Prep in California. He chose the Buckeyes over Pittsburgh, his other finalists.

A native of Senegal, Diallo moved the United States in 2015 to pursue his dream of playing in the NBA. Becoming a Buckeye was the latest step in his journey.
