Continue ReadingWe updated our 2022 rankings around the end of the high school season, and while we expect to see some major changes during AAU season, we wanted to update some news and notes for fans and college coaches to know.
The top of the class is very strong, even after DJ Moore DJ Moore 6'3" | PG Worthington Christian | 2021 State OH reclassified to 2021. The top 7 (Livingston, Jones, McMillan, Mahaffey, Hardman and both Harris prospects) are all household names and all should be expected to commit to high major programs.
Amani Lyles Amani Lyles 6'7" | C Beechcroft | 2022 State OH and Elmore James Elmore James 6'4" | SG Brush | 2022 State OH are the next best prospects in the state in this class, both play for All Ohio Red EYBL and should attract lots of attention from the top mid major programs in the region. With a huge summer, high majors could start to inquire about this pair.
Jacob Conner Jacob Conner 6'7" | PF Alter | 2022 State OH and Roderick Coffee Roderick Coffee 6'4" | SG Spire | 2022 State OH are two prospects we didn’t get our eyes on this high school season. Seeing them during AAU season is a priority for prep hoops ohio.
Tom House Tom House 6'5" | SF Centerville | 2022 State OH and Rich Rolf Rich Rolf 6'6" | PF Centerville | 2022 State OH helped lead Centerville to a state title, both of them have seen their stocks rise in the past couple months.
Sam Marbury Sam Marbury 6'5" | SF Solon | 2022 State OH and TNBA Ohio have had some impressive highlights shared by 3rdcoast hoops. We’re very intrigued with their 2022 group.
Five wing sized players from central Ohio are ranked 33-37, Cooper Davis Cooper Davis 6'5" | SG Olentangy Liberty | 2022 State OH , Drey Carter Drey Carter 6'8" | PF Westerville South | 2022 State OH and Nick Heath Nick Heath 6'4" | SF Upper Arlington | 2022 State OH are knockdown shooters. Jayden Nervis Jayden Nervis 6'6" | PF Hilliard Davidson | 2022 State OH is an intriguing athlete who had some monster games in the paint for Hilliard Davidson. Finally, Justin Perry Justin Perry 6'7" | PF New Albany | 2022 State OH has a lot of upside and we haven’t gotten the chance to see him since last summer.
Jalen Wenger Jalen Wenger 6'4" | SF Dalton | 2022 State OH and Jagger Landers Jagger Landers 6'7" | PF Antwerp | 2022 State OH are some of the top small school prospects in the state, both players should receive a ton of Division II looks.
Landers starts a group of bigs ranked between 43-50, Magnus Entenmann has been hurt for a while but looks intriguing. Troy Scowden Troy Scowden 6'8" | C Buckeye Valley | 2022 State OH is a high motor power forward who really competes. Sean Craig Sean Craig 6'6" | PF Sylvania Northview | 2022 State OH was named first team all state in division I last season. Jaiden Cox Holloway Jaiden Cox Holloway 6'6" | PF Richmond Heights | 2022 State OH had some big shooting games at 6’6. Tavian Tatum Tavian Tatum 6'5" | PF Garfield Heights | 2022 State OH and Jack Kenneally Jack Kenneally 6'7" | PF Elyria Catholic | 2022 OH are two NEO forwards that we need to see again over the summer. Finally, CJ Yarian CJ Yarian 6'10" | C St. Ignatius | 2022 State OH showed intriguing tools at 6’10 for Saint Ignatius during their final four run.
Three southeast Ohio kids appear in the 50-60 range, Trey Robertson Trey Robertson 5'10" | PG Waverly | 2022 State OH , Trent Hundley Trent Hundley 6'5" | SF Eastern Brown | 2022 State OH and Aiden Porter Aiden Porter 6'1" | PG Fairland | 2022 State OH are all scholarship prospects to me.
We should see some more kids establish themselves this summer and have a much clearer opinion of this class by July. We’re very excited for college coaches to once again be able to see these prospects in person very soon and are looking to help them be as prepared as possible to recruit the 2022 class!
