Matta signs 4, including 2 forwards, center, guard

Ohio State coach Thad Matta has signed four recruits in what some publications are calling one of the top classes in the country.

Jae'Sean Tate, a 6-foot-4 forward from Pinkerington Central High School and David Bell, a 6-10 center from Garfield Heights join the Buckeyes from Ohio.

D'Angelo Russell, a 6-5 guard from Louisville, Ky., and Keita Bates-Diop, a 6-7 forward from Normal, Ill., make up the rest of the class.
