Guest lil joey Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 Link is screwed up... here's the story... Ohio State baller Nick Dials transfers to Akron Email to a Friend Printer Friendly Version COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Ohio State transfer Nick Dials has accepted a men's basketball scholarship to attend Akron this fall, Zips head coach Keith Dambrot announced Tuesday. Dials will sit out the NCAA-mandated transfer year during the 2004-05 season, then will have three years of eligibility remaining beginning in the fall of 2005. "Nick is a perfect fit for our program," Dambrot said. "He is a player we really wanted out of high school." Dials, an All-Ohio player at Willard High School, turned down several scholarship offers to walk on at Ohio State last season. The 6-foot-1 guard appeared in 19 games, starting nine times, and averaged 4.5 points, 2.1 assists and 1.4 rebounds. He became a favorite of the fans for his hard-nosed play during the Buckeyes' 14-16 season. He enrolled at Ohio State as a walk-on but was awarded a scholarship before the start of last season. Ohio State coach Jim O'Brien, since fired for admitting he gave a recruit $6,000 five years ago, said he would renew Dials' scholarship on a yearly basis but Dials decided to transfer to seek a longer commitment.
