Thad Matta must be a very persuasive recruiter.
He already had a committment last fall from Class of 2006 center, 7' stud Greg Oden. Then a week ago a Class of 2007 top rated 7'1" center/power forward Kosta Koufos committed to Ohio State, too. Now today, a third top 100 rated center, Dallas Lauderdale has verbally committed to Ohio State. They also have a couple of underclasmen centers on their returning roster. I realize Oden will likely leave before the 2 studs from the class of 2007 get there. But it seems like Matta is stockpiling these big guys, and they would get more playing time anywhere else.
