I don't think there currently a scholarship, but this article mentions Ohio offered. It also lists offers from DePaul, Kent State, Toledo, Indiana State and James Madison (along with interest from WVU). Verbal commits lists Miami, but not Ohio.

I thought this was a good read and really hope things work out for the kid.

As a side note, he just broke the Shaker Heights single game record with 57 against Mentor. I was an incoming freshman at Shaker Hts when the previous record holder (Malcom Sims) was a senior. It was an interesting experience going to my first High School game as a student and seeing Bobby Knight, Jud Heathcote, and Randy Ayres sitting across the court.

We at Cleveland Heights were victims of Malcom's heroics. Guess is a player, so is Yahel Hill and Meechie Johnson. They will all face off this year. Ohio offered Hill and I am sure that they will offer Johnson. Meechie's dad went to Kent, but of course Sonny went to Ohio.

I saw a highlight video of their game against Garfield Heights, and it appeared that Christian suffered a painful knee injury. Is he good now?

I didn't see the Garfield Hts game but it looks like hes OK. He had 36 pts, 4 rebounds and 6 steals in the game two days later.

Christian guess? Isn't that what Catholics used to call the rhythm method for birth control?

Well played, sir (and you will need a mea culpa at some time, as well).

How about a contemporary Pascal's wager?

Bump.

Any updates on Guess?

Same as I said in the Hill thread - As far as I can tell he's still undecided so will be a late-signing period decision (April 11-May 16).

As far as I can tell we're still on his radar or no?

I know we've already signed 3 and sit at a full 13 scholarships, but in the event we lose someone to transfer?

Well, if I was a betting man I'd say he's either having trouble qualifying or Michigan heard he had some tie to OHIO and is now after him. (Caris Lavert, Ibi Watson, Jarron Simmons, etc.)

Curious where you saw that. They have five guys signed for 2018 already.

And according to VC, they're actually over on scholarships by one for next year, but I'm assuming they're banking on Wagner leaving for the NBA which would open one up.
