It never ceases to amaze me that whether it's Football or Basketball that Ohio doesn't even barely make a move to recruit its legacy athletes.

Next season we'll have two legacies on the roster.

We're not going to get Fears. We didn't get his brother. And we weren't going to get Gary Trent Jr.

I'm not sure what the point is in putting real resources into it. Make a courtesy offer, and move along.

You're surprised our outreach is subpar?

Dude wasn't a legacy .. he was here 1.5 years and bounced. To Bradley. To USC-Aiken. Guess his son is a "legacy" at those places too.


There's Only One OU and it ain't in Norman

Really? There was s so much baggage and tragedy in the entire saga. Wish him all the best, but glad he’s not here.

As for thinking we never reached out to Trent is silly. It’s also silly thinking he’d come here just because his father did. We went a dozen years or more as a school who distanced themselves from Gary, and if you don’t know, firing Larry did not sit well with Gary or many in that group.

Boy sure would be great to have Jeremy Fears Jr now! Be a HUGE addition to the team and University as a whole!

Exactly. We aren't talking about DJ Cooper Jr, Sonny Troutman, or Geno Ford's kids.

Yes definitely Kansas. Always Kansas.

But really if you think about it, that damn 1998 team should've gotten Larry fired.
