Back in late January, Ohio State freshman guard D'Angelo Russell accidentally broke the news of JaQuan Lyle's commitment to the Buckeyes, posting on his Instagram account saying the two were going to "do big things next year" in Columbus.
It hinted at a possible return to Ohio State for Russell, whose name has appeared in the top five of nearly every recent NBA mock draft.
On Monday, it was Lyle who hinted at a possible return to the Buckeyes for Russell when he wished the star freshman a happy 19th birthday on his Twitter account:
Happy born day to my Brovvva @D_Russ0..next year is gonna be fun #BuckeyeNation pic.twitter.com/1uP3LrFBkJ

Happy birthday, D'Angelo. If you want to return to Columbus next year, Buckeye Nation would be more than happy to have you.
