The Buckeyes are the only school from the B1G who showed interest in Cofie. Montana, UNLV, Colorado, Washington State, and Utah were the other schools to offer him.
Cofie would be the third recruit to pick Ohio State out of the 2024 class if he goes with the Buckeyes. 4-star commit John Mobley Jr. and 3-star commit Collin White are pledged to Ohio State so far.
Ohio State finished the 2022-2023 season at 16-19. The Buckeyes advanced to the semifinal of the B1G Tournament before losing to eventual conference champion Purdue.
It would be something if Ohio State could lure Cofie away from Washington. Here’s a highlight tape of Cofie recording a double-double:
