  1. As a freshman Seth Wilson was rated as one of the two best freshman PG's in the state (IIRC). I saw him at STVM a few times his freshman & sophomore years. He struck me as pretty darn good... but not awesome. He transfered to Lorain for his junior & senior seasons & his production really took off. Not saying that's STVM's & Coach Dru's fault - just saying it's probably because he was an upperclassman & team leader at Lorain as opposed to being an underclassman on some stacked STVM teams. He's big bodied & looks strong as an ox. Good ball handler & can shoot the 3-ball. When he committed to WVU I thought he looked like a prototypical Huggybear/WVU tough-as-nails-type player. Josiah Harris is a true 6-7 stretch 4. He can put the ball in the hole. Sometimes guys just need a change of scenery, and in Groce I trust. He gives his guys lots of confidence and a long leash. If Seth & Josiah felt they had a short leash at WVU then that can really get into a player's head. I think they'd do well - and have a lot of fun - playing Groceball.
  2. I was wondering if it wasn’t Josiah Harris. Groce offered him coming out of high school & I had noticed he was in the portal. He played at Richmond Heights (IIRC) for some reason his junior & senior seasons but spent his freshman & sophomore years at GlenOak (again, IIRC).
  3. @Illini Zip that's what Arkansas used to call their defense. It was VCU's HAVOC before VCU's HAVOC. 40 minutes of full-court press.
  4. Just saw this on X. We were discussing this a few days ago, the true Blue Bloods. We mentioned the top 7 as the true bluest of Blue Bloods. @Illini Zip also mentioned Villanova & @zippy5 also mentioned Michigan State.
  5. Week's getting away from us. Anxious for some news.
  6. I haven't been out to see them play yet. Are they at least good enough to give us some hope in the direction of the program?
  7. On my phone but we’ve received a verbal from a safety from Youngstown Ursuline named Taiwan Davis.
  8. I was really expecting to see Lyles' name in the portal.
  9. Oooh, Indiana. Yeah, probably. Duke North Carolina Kentucky Indiana Kansas UCLA ...UConn
  10. I forgot Kentucky!!! I was on my phone & distracted but of course Kentucky should be on my short list.
  11. They are. A week ago I and a friend were talking & I said I considered the true Blue Bloods to be Duke, North Carolina, Kansas, and UCLA. Then I paused, …and maybe UConn? My gut just doesn’t want to put them on that level yet even though my brain says they probably should be.
  12. Post #1 updated. Unless I've missed someone it looks like Da'Quan is our 7th OL signed this recruiting cycle.
  13. Is this the worst schedule in the history of football? Game 1 AT Ohio State Game 2 AT Rutgers Game 3 Colgate Game 4 AT South Carolina Game 5 AT Ohio Game 6 BUGS Game 7 AT WMU bye Game 8 EMU Game 9 Buffalo Game 10 Wednesday night AT NIU Game 11 Tuesday night AT KSUcks Game 12 Tuesday night v Toledo I submit that this is indeed the worst schedule in the history of football. We are set up to fail.
  14. Verbal Commits dot com is already updated c/ Dawson's transfer. Impressive.
  15. On twitter Da'Quan is very excited about visiting. Hopefully we can get a verbal 💯
