'18 Pickerington Central wing Adrian Nelson is taking an unofficial visit to Ohio University this weekend. OU has not offered Nelson yet.— Zach Fleer (@ZachFleer270) https://twitter.com/ZachFleer270/status/902528762398552064
Love this kid. I can't believe he's not able to get much higher offers. I hope we can get him. This is what we'll need with Laster leaving. We need a 6-6 athletic wing who can shoot and handle the rock.

+1. Thing with him is he is a rebounding machine at his height. Should fit in very nicely and help continue our pipelines into Columbus.

this kid is legit as an athlete. Saw him make some thunderous dunks during the district championship game. He's fast, has good reactions. He'll remind some of Jon Smith. I think at this point he's better.

The big question is can he improve his basketball skills. I don't recall seeing him shoot much, and we know Saul loves wings who can shoot. The potential to improve is there, in my opinion.

From the videos I've seen he reminds me a lot of Mickle in terms of athletic prowess in the open court. Just needs some polishing.

We liked him a lot at Flyin to the Hoop and at Ohio Dominican. Hopefully we can get him.

This might be the kind of guy Ohio needs. A spark plug off the bench to attack the glass.

Northern Kentucky. Nice program being developed there, and the Horizon League is making a good name for itself.

That's a big get for them, especially after losing Carson Williams.
