Second-year forward Kalen Etzler is No. 11 in The Dispatch's preseason Ohio State men's basketball power rankings.
A member of the class of 2021, Etzler was the fifth player in his class to land a scholarship offer from Ohio State and he immediately accepted it. In doing so, he became the first player to commit for the class. At the time, he was ranked as the nation’s No. 55 recruit according to the 247Sports.com composite database, and he finished his prep career as a three-star prospect ranked No. 154 nationally and No.
Etzler took a redshirt during his first season at Ohio State in order to put on weight and strength to better prepare himself for Big Ten play. He was listed at 200 pounds when he arrived, but that number was more a goal than an accurate measure: Etzler arrived at around 180 pounds and has added roughly 10 for the start of this season.
“Coming from where he was, he’s definitely made strides in ,” third-year center Zed Key said. “I see him make plays and I’m like, ‘Oh, OK, you weren’t doing that a year ago.’ ”He’s a fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, listens to Michael Jackson and an artist who built a wooden cutout of the outline of the state of Ohio that hangs at his house back home. Etzler’s uncle, Doug, played at Ohio State from 1992-95, averaging 6.6 points and 1.4 rebounds per game.
