2016-2017 Recruiting

[Globetrotter]

THREE current OSU frosh have announced they will tranfer.... Also Frankie Hughes, 6'5" guard from Garfield hts has decommited from Louisville.... 1st team all Ohio.

In short, LOTS of possible talent, tho some would have to sit out a yr.

Looks like he is going to Missouri with his HS teammate.

Yep, that one is up the thread somewhere. Really think he was a great find. I expect us to eventually run a lot of 2 pg offenses.

Since Huger has been head coach we have 4 commitments. Lillard-Wiggins-Caldwell and Frye. I think every one of them has a great chance to be a stud. Can't wait to see what he does this next week.

I do know that Coach Stacey started following Hazen recently so maybe something is in the wind. And speaking of Stacey's recent twitter followings - one was Tony Miller who is an Assistant Coach at Cal State - LA after being a coach at USC for several years. Thinking he may be considered for opening on staff. He played at Marquette and looks like he was also in the same European Leagues as both Huger and Stacey in the 2000's. He's also originally from Cleveland. Seems like it could be a fit.

Add a big and a decent wing with some range and we're going to be TROUBLE....

[BleedOrange]

I finally had a chance to watch the Dylan Frye videos! MY GOD! That kid is going to be great. His work ethic is off the charts. Nice kid. Super attitude. Body control, court vision, shooting mechanics.....and a 35"-40" vertical.

When does the '16-'17 schedule come out? Frack Challenge game?

Hollywood isn't the smoothest looking athlete...kinda clunky looking when he runs...but he can catch, square and shoot pretty well and that is just what we need around here.

Wasn't impressed by him but his list of suitors post coaching change is high.

Rodney culver who I was impressed by is going to OU.

Hazen to Arkansas.
