Just wanted to give my 2 cents on Christian for you guys to get a better understanding of who your new coach is.

I'll be honest and say that basketball is not nearly a big of deal as baseball and football in Ft Worth, plain and simple. TCU needs a coach who can sell the program, someone with a little more "swag". Billy Gillespie would've been perfect but he isn't available. I think CJC just had a really hard time selling recruits because that's not his thing, but IMO he is a damn good coach. His first 3 years were bad because he had no one on his staff with any credibility until this year (hence the better record).

He is the perfect fit for Ohio U. You're going to see an athletic team who plays relentless defense and CJC has always had his PG as the best player on the team. You need to get young charismatic assistants to help recruit and with your recent success I see him doing much better there then at TCU.

As far as transfers go, not sure if anyone goes to Ohio, maybe PG Kyan Anderson, but the recruit to watch out for is Clyde Smith, he's supposed to be good. Maybe C Ryan Rhoomes too.

Last thing, if CJC finds lots of success at Ohio U it is in my opinion that he will be there for good. He cares a lot for his family and just wants to settle.

Thanks for allowing me on your board, if you have any more questions about CJC let me know I'm glad to help. Go Bobcats and Go Frogs!
