The recruiting class coming in next year is better than any class Slocum brought. Quisenberry is the PG and leader of Wayne HS who is ranked #3 in the state D1. He may be the best PG in the state for that matter. Simmons is a long, lean 6-6 wing who can do it all for Beechcroft who is ranked #2 in D2. Both of their teams still alive in the playoffs. Atiba Taylor is a top 5 PG in the state of NJ who had offers from several power 5 teams. Also, 6-11 big man Jeffrey Otchere has named us in his final 5 schools and he will be making his decision here soon. Calhoun is building something great, it's just going to take time because of how bad the culture was here.

Vargo just tweeted that we are playing at the Buckeyes on Dec 18th. Getting 95k for it.

Pretty stout non-conference schedule shaping up...WVU, Pitt & now OSU along with Western Michigan

I get more and more excited about YSU men's basketball every day!

Definitely a good non conference schedule. Especially staying somewhat local.
