When instate basketball star Devin Royal committed to Ohio State, it was a massive recruiting win for head coach Chris Holtmann. Not only did the Buckeyes get a commitment from a top-50 player, but they also kept Royal away from other Big Ten schools like Michigan, Penn State, Illinois, and Wisconsin.
