Just saw a Tweet from Coach Fuss. I knew all three of this seniors earned degrees, but learned that D.J. Cooper has completed his requirements now, too.

Congrats, D.J. on earning all the rights, privileges, honors and responsibilities of a degree from The Ohio University. All six 2013 seniors -- Reg, Nick G, Walt, Ivo, DMac & D.J. hold degrees. That's a great record off the floor to go along with impressive accomplishments on it. Happy to support any and all of them as a fellow alum. Go, Bobcats!

Agreed Joe

That's what you get when you recruit quality individuals with great support systems. I love it. Congrats to not only the hoopers but to Mama and Pop Coop, The Keely's, The Macs, Mom and Pop Offut, Mom and Pop Baltic, the Kelloggs as well as those in the classes behind them that followed their footsteps. Big Props to all.....

That puts the APR on schedule and sets a great example for the program, the kids coming behind and the rest of the MAC.....winning the MAC and graduating the entire class....now That's a program!

This is much better than a bunch of one and doners and also what College athletics SHOULD be all about...success in the classroom and getting that degree that will serve you a lifetime. Sports skills and success, on the other hand, are a fleeting thing.

That's the way it was meant to be. Kids going to school and earning a degree. If you get a scholarship and don't graduate, you are cheating yourself. Congrats to these gentlemen.
