I was looking at the ESPN recruiting page and saw that they have George Fant as considering Ohio.  I am excited about this for a couple reasons.  1. ESPN doesn't typically put much effort into the considering tab for MAC schools unless it is legit interest 2. He is the power forward we need 3. It seems he has been getting attention from some major programs 4. He played on All Ohio Red with Stevie Taylor and after we were also involved with Trey Burke at one point, i am feeling like we may have a pipeline established.  Anybody have any more information on Fant and the schools he is considering?

Offer list includes Western Kentucky, Akron, Butler, Ohio, Cincinnati, OK State, Wright State, Southern Illinois, Miami, Georgia, Miss St., Seton Hall, FIU, Colorado State, USF, Cleveland State, Arkansas, Murray State, UTEP, Dayton, BC, Penn State, Iowa, Clemson, Nebraska, and Bowling Green.

I'd like to see us go after another guy with Ethan Jacobs/KVK size, but obviously this would be a real coup if we could get him. Has he visited us yet? He has some Youtube videos up and he reminds me a bit of JD Weatherspoon, a freshman at Ohio State or you might say he plays in the same style as a Bill Walker. Apparently he's up to 6'7'' 235.

He has visited Penn St. and Western Kentucky the last two weekends. He has an upcoming visit to Georgia. Ohio doesn't appear to be on his radar anymore.
