Richmond Heights power forward TJ Crumble has been racking up offers, with 21 Division 1 scholarship offers to date. He has not yet eliminated any of the schools trying to recruit him, but the sought-after four-star is expected to narrow down his choices by Valentine's Day.
He has so many offers that some of his basketball peers, including five-star Ohio State commit Marcus Johnson, three-star Northwestern commit Jake West and rising basketball star Nelson Neumann all reacted in the comments section.
"🔥🔥," said YouTube basketball sensation Nelson Neumann.
"yk😉," said three-star combo guard Jake West.
"👀," commented five-star Marcus Johnson.

Among the schools trying to recruit TJ Crumble are big schools like Ohio State, LSU, Michigan, Virginia Tech, Ole Miss, Penn State, Georgia Tech, Texas A&M, Northwestern and more. This makes the comments from West and Johnson understandable, as Crumble might be a future teammate.
The 6-7 Richmond Heights power forward is ranked No. 87 overall by the On3 Industry Ranking, as well as the No. 16 power forward and the No. 3 player in Ohio for the Class of 2025. He transferred to Richmond Heights last year after playing for Lutheran East.
Crumble has been described as a talented combo forward who could be a good wing for any collegiate team that wants him.
Which schools will TJ Crumble go to?
With 21 offers from Division 1 schools from all over the country, four-star power forward TJ Crumble is spoiled for choice. The question now is, where would he go?
He has already made several official and unofficial visits to some of the schools trying to recruit him, including Illinois, Ohio State, Notre Dame and Wisconsin. His latest visit was to Michigan last October. He also held an unofficial visit to Ohio State that same month.
For On3, the website's Recruitment Prediction Machine has Kent State as the favorite at 7.5%, followed by Ohio State at 6.6% and then Eastern Michigan at third with a 5.7% chance to recruit him. Several schools, such as Georgia Tech and Wisconsin, are tied for fourth with 4.7%.
However, over at Rivals, the website is forecasting that Illinois is the favorite at 50%, thanks to his early unofficial visit to the school in 2023. This is followed by Cincinnati and Missouri, with both schools being forecasted at 25%.
Despite these predictions, however, Crumble is yet to make his decision, which means things can still change by the time he cuts his choices down by February.
