Luke Babbitt PF  6-8 215--   Reno, NV

I counted it.  This class is equal in the amount of stars it has compared to the '06 class.  I think this class is more complete, though.  I don't think the '07 class will have any 1 and done players.  So '08 is the year that the team will be really special, that's if Oden leaves now, leaving a hole in the '07 team.

Ohio State is no stranger to pulling in the big talent. With recruits such as Oden, Conley, Koufos, and Diebler they are becoming a powerhouse in college basketball. Will this trend keep up or will they fade away? Matta has searched the country for the best talent. This year he made a visit to Toledo, Ohio. That's where he found the 8th best player in the country, William Buford. This guard should prove to be a great value for the buckeyes in upcoming season.

Averaging 28.4 points per game, 10 rebounds, and a handful of assists his junior year, Buford has proved to be one of the best prospects in the nation. One time thing isn't a well-known phrase to Buford, seeing as he averaged 22.7 points per game as a sophmore and looks to make a big statement with his senior season.
