DeShaun Thomas, a top junior class prospect from Fort Wayne, still is committed to Ohio State. IU coach Tom Crean's appearance at his Class 2A state title game on March 28 stimulated rumors that he might be considering the Hoosiers. But Thomas, an early 2010 Indiana Mr. Basketball favorite, recently told The Journal Gazette he is still committed to the Buckeyes (thanks for the tip Inside the Hall and basketblog reader Zach).

You've got to take his word for it, but certainly nothing is set in stone until he signs a national letter of intent next year. I've been told he is very close with fellow five-star junior Jared Sullinger, also committed to OSU, and the two were at several home games together in Columbus this winter.
