Hoops Roundup: Five Notable OSU Offers Made During Evaluation Period
A look at the latest offers on the hoops crootin’ trail.
July is a tricky month for college basketball coaches. To kick off the month is the quiet period, where in-person recruiting contacts can be made only on campus. Sprinkled throughout the rest of the month is the dead period, where no contact, evaluations, or visits can be made, followed by the evaluation period, where rules are much less stringent. Then the dead period. Then the eval period. Then — you get it.
Between it all, the OSU staff managed to stay plenty busy with a number of new offers. Here’s a look at the ones of note.
