Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach. Woody Hayes

Started a thread on him in the recruiting board a while back.

Didn't realize he ended up at Kansas. If he's good enough for Kansas he's good enough for us right?

The fact that he's transferring without ever playing may mean he wasn't good enough for Kansas. Still I suspect Saul would be happy to have another big.

Especially one who won't cause any issues with future recruiting classes. Could be a call worth making.

I'd take that recommendation over anything I have heard in years considering the Ohio affinity and the inside knowledge. Thanks good to know. Good info


never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Winter comes and asks how you spent your summer.....

The game loves and rewards those who love and reward the game

Man, you sure do love to talk about transfers. Transfers in football, transfers in basketball....if you embraced Ohio's actual players as much as you do transfers at other schools, you'd make a pretty good fan. I guess Ohio's actual players just aren't good enough to you.

I like our team the way it is this year. I think if we added Whitman it would take away from the development of posts Doug, Carter and AJ. We have Mickle coming in to hopefully give us energy and some mentoring. We have our wings with Block and Vander Plas. Whitman was said to have wanted to be a stretch 4 but a 1 year rental of him would not be in our best future interests.

I actually love this team in the MAC. Butler and Kirk will get a ton of PT early in the schedule against solid teams in Charleston as well as Iona and Western Kentucky. I think Gareri or Vander Plas are going to get some PT and Mickle is going to be great with his athleticism. Toss in the further maturation of Laster, Block, Dartis and Doug along with Gollon and this team could be sneaky good like Christian's second team.
