Has anyone paid attention to OSU's basketball recruiting?  I saw mention of this on a UNC board, checked it out, and could not believe my eyes.  

Next year's class:

5 stars: 1
4 stars: 4

This class includes 7ft (or 7'2 depending who you ask) PF Kosta Koufos who has 3-point range as one of his strengths :P

2008 class:

5 stars: 4
4 stars: 1

This class includes the #2 PG, #7 PF, #2 C (another 7 footer), and the #3 and #19 SG.

I mean, wow.  That's some recruiting they got going on.  Definitely not what I expected out of Ohio State.  They weren't even on the map in 2005, then they score a monster class in 2006 which was ranked #2 by scout behind North Carolina, and now they've got the 9th ranked class next year, and what I would have to assume is the #1 class in 2008.  That class would probably be the starting lineup of most other schools, they've got every position filled if they just shift one of their SG to SF.  I just hope they all go to the NBA and don't do anything stupid like pull a Florida.
