Slagle sounds like our replacement for Achter. :) Gotta love this quote. "Jess is an outstanding guard that chose BGSU over numerous offers including Iowa and Michigan State of the Big Ten," said Miller. I have to say , Coach Miller is quite the recruiting monster. :supz:

3rd Best Center in the state + 5th best 2-guard in the state + proven all-MAC transfer G/F = More MAC Championships.

Yes. Move over Louisiana Tech and Old Dominion.

Heck, the fun is JUST beginning!! What a great bit of news to read...

And BOTH are honor roll students and National Honor Society. Damn, sign Coach Miller to a 20 year extension and give him Ribeau's crib NOW!!!! :lol:

I think Tracy Pontius is the replacement for Kate Achter at the point. I thought Slagel is a 2 guard, although I suppose it is possible she could be a combo guard.

Miller says Slagle is a 2-guard.

I heard that she could play both positions as Pontius is gonna need a back up at pg for next year. Besides I really meant that Slagle looks like Kate's replacement as far as style of play, it sounds like Slagle's game is much like Achter's but I guess we'll see eventually.

I love these two signees. Geise will, eventually, be a player. Offensively skilled. Slagle is a two guard/wing type kid. The key on Slagle, as noted, is she turned down the Big Ten. She wants to play for a great school, for a winner and give her family and friends a chance to watch her play. She may become a teacher and what school is better? The answer- none!

Gee, I bet Suzy Merchant thought she no longer had to worry about outrecuiting BG. Wrong- Slagel says yes to BG and no thanks to MSU and other Big Ten schools.

Go Falcons!

Is Merchant with MSU now? I must have slept through that one!

This sounds like a phenomenal incoming group. Is it possible that Curt could stay here and build a national powerhouse without the pressure of a "big time" school? With the way he's recruiting, I'd say hell yes! Plus, if he's here long enough, don't we have to name something after him? That should be a part of the next contract talks! :lol:

I sure hope Coach Miller thinks so. I definitely think Miller can build a national powerhouse here at BG with the way he's recruiting. I think deeper and deeper runs in the NCAA Tourney are in our future with Miller at the helm.
