I'll throw this out there - Amy Acton isn't the answer either. For as stupid as Vivek's comments are, Amy Acton was largely responsible for the totalitarian COVID shutdowns which severely harmed the University of Akron. Whatever anyone wants to think about the preventative measures at the time, it has since been proven just how big of a farce/scam COVID was and Acton led the charge with her totalitarian shutdowns. Neither candidate will have UA's best interests in mind, and Casey Putsch walks around with nuts on his head so he's questionable, too. Akron's mayor sucks, Cleveland's mayor sucks, Ohio's current governor sucks, Ohio's future governor candidates suck... Ohio politics are in the absolute crapper at the moment.

5 if what @clarkwgriswold said is true about a HS decommit.

Following the previous coach who essentially ignored the state of Indiana for any type of recruiting, this is a welcomed addition by the Balls faithful I'd imagine.

That's news. My guess is the two guards stayed committed while the Vegas kid decommitted. Were Perkins & Henderson in attendance?

I didn't realize they stopped doing the golf outing. Not doing a golf outing at the peak of golf popularity is certainly a choice.

Maybe that's the recruit who will be on campus and is personally being recruited by Dustin.

September 21st I believe is the date they said.

Would have to imagine.

A guy Ford is personally recruiting will be on campus today. Interested to see if that info gets out.

Walter Offutt is really good friends with our new assistant Josh Jones from NDSU. Offutt was so key for Groce/Ford at OU. Suckeyes transfer if I'm not mistaken. Jay Shunnar is the Associate HC. Former Assistant at North Texas, played at Toledo, and spent time with Cleveland State, Butler, Michigan, and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Morrow, Weigand, & May round out the staff.

If I'm not mistaken, he's the biggest player in the MAC at the moment. The board has been clambering to get bigger down low and we did that. My excitement isn't exactly through the roof but I see the vision. Believe in Ford & his staff - he has earned that over that the last 9 years of developing undersized big men into All-MAC caliber players.

It's obvious how much this means to Dustin. So awesome. Thrilled for him and his family. He's going to be easy to root for and I can't wait to see where he can take this program.

Someone tell them to turn up the mic. I have my laptop at 100% volume and I can't hear squat.

Plural?!

Interesting. 6'10" 240 lbs - averaged just under 6 ppg and 5.2 rpg in 24.7 minutes of action per game. Very little college tape out there from a quick search, but his high school tape has him looking pretty athletic and with a jump shot. Oddly enough, he didn't make any 3s each of the past 2 seasons, but shot 37.5% 3P in 2023-24. I'm a wait and see on this one. I trust Ford, though.
