If and when Fick leaves I think Freeman is the guy.
Freeman seems the heir apparent, if we can hold him long enough. What am I saying--maybe he and Fickell will spend another decade together here?
Fickell passed UC's "three years and done" milepost with flying colors by turning down a top tier Big Ten program. Could UC be as consistently good as Virginia Tech was during Beamer's best years? With Ohio recruits, maybe better. How fun would that be?
The only difference is conference affialiation...there will always be that pull. I think if you don't have rampant sexual assault allegations he would've ended up at MSU last season...which means it's only a matter of time. Regardless, I'm thrilled with how his tenure has gone and won't let the end tarnish the means.
I respect your opinions Based on your working at a University and being on the inside, coaching, played at UC etc.
That said, it’s disappointing to read your post. I thought (wishful thinking?) he would’ve stayed even without the sexual assault issues at Michigan State.
My close sources say Luke's wife said "No way to East Lansing".

Long ago I posted about the Fickell family 10 year plan. They would go to OSU or ND anytime. Anything else must be special. Remember BK is 58, so add 6 and he may want to become an analyst.
That said plans change but not for a crap town like East Lansing.

No I was trolling you on that and you took the hook.
You could verify a sale listing on the MLS. LMAO!

We are going to see quite a few new faces at WR and no offense to those leaving, but I also think we should be quite improved at that position.
Anyone know why some many WR's are transferring? Is there better younger talent and these guys see the writing on the wall that they won't be getting PT? That certainly didn't seem like the case for Mbodj. Are they frustrated with the QB play? Seems rather odd that one position group would have so much turnover.
Getting Davis MSU and Young ND but losing Mbodj, Rogers and Cloud to ?
Losing QB Kosco to ?
Losing RB Thomas to ? and getting Ford AL
DB's losing Potts to NCO and McDonald and Johnson to ?
Losing Mbodj is a loss. Thomas The Tank could have been great if he had his head straight. But we got a FORD!
These are per 247.
A few minor notes, Potts was a linebacker, not a DB and Kosco was a walk-on QB. Thomas is going to Independence CC (Last Chance U), and Mbodj has been in the portal each of the last two seasons, so I don't know if he's actually gone. Even if he is, we're bringing in three highly rated WRs, so I'm not worried.
WR was a position that they clearly knew needed to be upgraded and I believe there were probably some very frank and honest conversations and players took them the way the coaches likely intended.
Probably should have put this in the recruiting section but it sounds like we may be adding yet another WR with a lot of potential in Arkansas grad transfer Jordan Jones per 247. He hopes to make a decision in the next few days between UC, Hawaii and ECU.

Aren't ECU fans claiming him already?
Edit: Never mind... that was another Arkansas player...a RB...

Without knowing anything about him as a person or player, breaking down what he has to say about each school I'd like to think we have the upper hand. Assuming he had a good relationship with Enos that plays in our favor. He has no connections to ECU outside of a former teammate playing there. They also came into the picture late. Will be interesting to watch over then next few days.

ECU: Looks like another fanbase that (in the words of Ruth Langmore) doesn't know sh!t about f*ck.
