Doh!

This is what I think our scholarship roster looks like for next year. Any corrections? (Squire, Maxamud?) This recruiting class looks like Simon's best haul by a good margin.

Wow, what an amazing pickup. With Torbert and Ateny, I'm wondering if more kids that would otherwise go to majors are picking mid-majors to ensure that they play right away. Beautiful shooting mechanics and a shot blocking machine. https://kysports.tv/2026/04/%F0%9F%9A%A8-a-rim-protector-has-entered...

I had asked earlier if Colin White (former two-time Ohio Mr. Basketball out of Ottawa Glandorf) might be in play at BG since he was leaving Ohio State and entering the portal. Well, he is going to Akron. He will very likely be a total pain in the butt for BGSU over the next two seasons. I don't kno...

We landed Cranford over some very solid programs. Awesome shooter with athleticism.

Beckford seems to have a high upside. He was recruited by several majors coming out of high school.

Any word on Glover and Thomas?

What exactly was the issue with Wol, anyway?

My take: First of all, Vivek who tf asked you? Is the university system broken? No! So don't fix it. Ohio universities emerged organically and provide a rich diversity of options. Nobody needs this consolidation. You're going to lose to Amy Acton any. Go be a billionaire somewhere else and leave Ohi...

That’s a really good question. It is probably the worst possible time to have an AD who is so singularly focused and dug in on football. I think even the biggest diehard football fans would admit the math doesn’t add up. Plus, the product itself has gotten much worse. Kent and Akron have made the s...

This is once again a poorly constructed roster. We probably have one more year of this experiment to see if this coach can do it but I’m losing confidence. Same old story. Poor roster construction in that we never have as much shooting as pretty much everybody else we play. We do seem to do a good ...

BGSU33 with another original, brilliant post. gfy.

BG better not commit to that level, it's insane. OSU apparently is spending $15m on its assistant coaches this year. BG has no business trying to compete on these levels. Walked Forrest Creason last night while my son had soccer practice at the field house. Every time I venture over there I get mor...

After tonight, who cares if this team goes to the MAC tournament? They will faceplant. What a dull, mediocre offering for a team. No fire, cohesion, or grit.
