I'm really surprised there hasn't been much chatter on here about Ike's podcast appearance because I got more info out of Ike than any "so called" media member covering the program the last 12 months.

A couple of highlights:

*AJ Brown not practicing because of a foot injury. I won't panic over this, but this is now a shoulder and a foot for AJ since coming to Athens.

*Ike is close friends with Marvin Price.

*He knew Boals because Boals offered him in 9th grade when Boals was at Stonybrook

*Ike tailors his game like Devon Booker

*He was attracted to Ohio because of the Jason Preston story.

*Loves family atmosphere at Ohio

*Wants to lead and be a good teamate

*Likes to chill vs going out.

*Led a college life when he was in prep school

*Majoring in sports management

*Wants to stay locked in...easier to focus in Athens.

*Not into social media. Doesn't like instagram...thinks it's fake.

*Would Ike rather have game winning assist or game winning block. He said game winning block.

Really good interview and he came off extremely well. Seems like a great fit.

Sounds like the kind of solid citizen that Boals specializes in recruiting. And, while I don't think Instagram is fake, I seldom use my account. I have better ways to share photos without sorting through all the crapola on Instagram. Really neat that the Jason Preston story helped him decide on OHIO. Jason is turning out to be a very good ambassador for us! I like that he emphasizes teamwork. Teams that really have good chemistry are teams where the whole is truly greater than the sum of the parts. In today's environment that's the way OHIO will win championships!

And just to clarify when I say Instagram fake I think he’s just talking about people making up stuff about their lives…etc….just a lot of fake people putting stuff out there to make themselves look better.

He just doesn’t get distracted and waste time on social.

Enjoyable interview.
