I hope so. According to Rivals, it has Danny McElroy & Luke Kraus as signed and Darren Goodson as committed:

Didn't he have some off court issues or something that made us back off of him? Or maybe he quit his HS team or something like that?

I don't remember the details, but I think we backed off of him.

He was accused of something (I don't dare try to remember the actual accusations) involving a girl, but it was reportedly cleared up a few weeks later. We backed off of him, but with all that Coach Orr has shown us, I wouldn't be surprised if the kid was given a chance to clean his image up and prove himself to get back on board.

There was another kid who we were on that quit his HS team, but I forget the name.

This was discussed not too long ago.

Goodsen isn't coming to BG.

Our needs aren't at his position anyway. We need a center and/or a waterbug.

If we wanted players that could walk on water, we REALLY should have tried to get those Pollitz boys

Goodson's teammate was name Cortez Howell. He transferred schools when the coach was fired and now plays for Lockland High Schools down here in Cincy. Is having an awesome season, but will likely go prep or juco because his grades are not stellar. Howell plays for Steve Gentry who played for Xavier in the early 90's and for Coach Jackson in the late 80's. I spoke with Coach Gentry about Cortez and he suffered from personal issues and that is why he de-committed from BG.

I do remember this topic being discussed on here, but the reason I raised this question again is because Goodson's name has recently reappeared on this list. I remember when he was listed, then removed, but noticed the other day he is back on here. Just wondering if anyone knew something new about the situation?
