Evan Ravenel brings veteran size and hard-nosed frontcourt toughness to Ohio State
At Ohio State in the 2012-13 season, Evan Ravenel was a senior 6-foot-8 forward/center whose value went beyond raw numbers: he gave the Buckeyes a physical, experienced presence in the paint, helped on the glass, and provided reliable interior defense and screening. His background as a transfer-turned-rotation piece made him a low-drama, high-effort fit for a team needing maturity and toughness. If you want a rugged, team-first big who embraces contact and does the dirty work, Ravenel’s style absolutely plays.
