For next year, as you mention, if I'm Boals, I'm using both of the currently available scholarships and aggressively pursuing transfers that are older, and more physically mature. Whether its a grad transfer, JUCO, or other transfer, Ohio is young, and needs to get a couple older, more physical players. One of them would be a PG if it were me. Lastly, I think it's probable he'll have three, not two, scholarships available by April 1st. Call it a gut feeling.
I completely agree with targeting two experienced players (be it JUCO or grad transfer) with our remaining two scholarships.
Rather than a JUCO PG, I would target the best scoring off-guard we can find. With Dartis graduating, there's going to be a lot of shots available and we could really use someone who is making them.
Armon Bassett would fit the mold I'm thinking :)
I'm on board with Bassett sentiments from OCF, though I doubt Boals would recruit a player with potential baggage like that.
I'm good with an off-guard, but regardless, for me, the current direction of college hoops suggests that Ohio still, despite recruiting several talented ones as freshmen, needs a guard that can get it done in all facets. I said PG because I think having several competent ball handlers is important.
Another gut feeling: Boals agrees on the need to get a little older, as it seems like they may have held back one scholarship for spring. Now with Price gone they have two.
