Blue & Gold

Won the natty! 🏆 #HangTheBanner Yet another reason for a new arena

PG - Tavari, Wilson, Young WG - Scott, Nate, Prather, Mahaffey WF - Marvin PF - Baker, Lyles CF - Okonkwo, Brisco I'd say it looks like we probably need one more post player.

Dang! Well can't argue with that!

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.

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).

Ouch 😭

@zippy-claws

@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.

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.

Can’t believe he did that in BYU’s gym

Week's getting away from us. Anxious for some news.

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?

On my phone but we’ve received a verbal from a safety from Youngstown Ursuline named Taiwan Davis.

I was really expecting to see Lyles' name in the portal.

Oooh, Indiana. Yeah, probably. Duke North Carolina Kentucky Indiana Kansas UCLA ...UConn

I forgot Kentucky!!! I was on my phone & distracted but of course Kentucky should be on my short list.

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.

Post #1 updated. Unless I've missed someone it looks like Da'Quan is our 7th OL signed this recruiting cycle.

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.

Verbal Commits dot com is already updated c/ Dawson's transfer. Impressive.
