Ohio State basketball offers 2024 Texas 7-footer
If this past Ohio State basketball season taught us anything, it was that the current and potentially future rosters needed more size.
Head coach Chris Holtmann addressed that a little bit in the offseason but the biggest change will happen in the 2024 cycle. With just one current commit, point guard Juni Mobley, there is room to add a few more prospects.
Texas big man Trent Burns could be one those as he was offered a scholarship on Monday. The 7-foot, 3-inch and 220 pound center is ranked as the 19th best at his position and 115th overall player in his class according to the 247Sports composite rankings.

Burns is just coming off an official visit to Purdue, and we know about how successful they have been with finding big men. With the Buckeyes now in the mix, hopefully there is another Midwest visit on the horizon.
