Shannon Scott, the #7 ranked point guard in the class of 2011 according to Scout.com, has verbally committed to Ohio State. Scott, the son of former UNC star, Charlie Scott, becomes the Buckeyes' first member for the class of 2011 and chose OSU over offers from Clemson, USC, Oregon State, Georgia Tech, and others.
This is definitely a good way to start the 2011 class off, especially after the recent departure of Walter Offutt from the program. Scott will give the Buckeyes some point guard depth behind true lead-man Aaron Craft and combo-guard Lenzelle Smith, both who recently signed on to join the Buckeyes next year as part of the 2010 recruiting class.

Do you think that Walter had an idea that this other PG was coming in and that effected his decision?
Not likely. The kid won't be in Scarlet & Gray until the 2011/2012 season.
Right.
I guess these things happen in top-flight bball programs. Welcome to the Big Time.
I'm outta here, everyone. have a happy food and booze filled thanksgiving.
also, avoid the wednesday night high school bar reunions in your home towns.
