One outlet claims Ohio State is one of two finalists for Bronny James

The Bronny James and Ohio State saga continues. There have been plenty of developments over the last few months, so here’s a quick recap before getting to the most recent news.

First, it was a report that James was down to three schools, USC and Oregon included with Ohio State. The issue for the Buckeyes was that there wasn’t really an available scholarship.

That all changed when Eugene Brown III entered the transfer portal, giving head coach Chris Holtmann a spot to fill. There is also the real possibility that Brice Sensabaugh heads off to the NBA after already deciding to go through the process while still maintaining his eligibility.

Now, CBB Content, who has a blue check mark but who really knows which ones to trust nowadays, is claiming that James is down to two schools, Ohio State and USC.

James doesn’t do many interviews at all. In fact, he was one of the few players not to speak at the McDonald’s All-American game, but reporters were able to get him for a few minutes at the Nike Hoop Summit. He answered a few questions but when asked about his timeline for committing, a representative nixed the question.

At this point it’s hard to say where James is leaning toward but I wouldn’t count out Oregon as the above tweet claims. After all, he is in Portland, Oregon at the moment for this event and their coaches aren’t far. And … according to another report, his decision could be coming very soon.
