To understand just how abrupt the ascent of Ohio star Jason Preston has been, consider the message he wrote on LinkedIn last year.
“I am looking to continue to stay with the sport of basketball and look into…becoming a future scout,” he wrote. He added: “Do not hesitate to connect with me, as I would love to grow with you!”
Well, those potential connections have grown exponentially in the past 24 hours. And the bandwagon of folks waiting to see where Ohio’s star point guard can go is filling up at a rapid rate.
How it started.
