Summary

It was a huge weekend for Ohio State's men's basketball team as head coach Chris Holtmann and his staff landed 5-star point guard DJ Carton. Why did Carton make such a meteoric rise in the recruiting rankings? And how did the Buckeyes end up getting a commitment from him? What role did a local waterpark play in Carton's recruitment? Who might be next to join Carton and Alonzo Gaffney in OSU's 2019 class? Perhaps E.J. Liddell? On the football front, what should you expect from Ohio State's wide receivers this season? This might be the deepest, most-veteran group of WRs we can remember in Columbus. How productive will they be? All of that and more with Steve Helwagen and Dave Biddle on the Monday extravaganza.

0:54.2	listeners through it was pretty much a meteoric rise for this young man, was it because of the
0:57.8	AAU circuit and all that? Talk about his rise for maybe a guy that was thought of as a good to a guy that became the top recruits in the country.
1:06.0	Yeah, it's been an exciting, I think, spring and summer for DJ Cardi's from Bettendorf, Iowa, Iowa and people would say, well why wouldn't he go to

1:35.8	outing and Brian Snow, our recruiting expert, called me and said get a story ready because
1:44.1	DJ Carton is going to go to Ohio State and thankfully he was using the
1:49.1	Tipton edits people to put together his graphic or whatever and it took them 45 minutes or an hour so I had
1:56.2	a little bit of lead time and I'm sitting there at the golf outing writing the story getting
