if Ben Berry truly had an offer from ORU, it looks like he has chose to play elsewhere...

 

Had a blast in Florida, looks like this is my new home!

Not sure how far to read into this but interesting post by Aaron Anderson. Some of you may remember ORU recruited Aaron a few years ago but he opted for Fresno State. Would love to see him in a Golden Eagle uniform!

good finds SOLO and insider

 

best of luck to Corbin at UCO.

 

any idea if this was an official visit?  coming from D2 (UCO) would Anderson have to redshirt?  that would make 3 Edmond players if he did come to ORU and they almost landed Shaq Morris.

Byford to UCO?....wow....I guess it's just a one year stop for Corbin?....then on to another D-1 program?....and what's the scoop with Anderson?....is he a 1 or a 2 guard?.....we could sure use the size in the backcourt.....if he's playing at UCO then he should be eligible this year.....that would be a nice pick up for us....he went to Edmond Memorial or Santa Fe?....was he a teammate of Emegano???... :nerd:

still holding out hope for another transfer (i.e. Stevie Clark) to load up for Obi and Korey's senior campaign...

The 4th slot. Aaron Anderson?

 

That would be intriguing:  ORU becomes Edmond Even-More-North Graduate School.

Are you saying that 11(!!) of their players are transferring? Is that possible? That will have a major impact on their APR.

Checked out the Central Arkansas message board and evidently all but one player failed to make grades sufficient to remain eligible. Ouch.

Are you really a "transfer" if you fail to make grades and have to go play at the NAIA level after getting kicked off/out?

 

Shouldn't they be listed separately on some sort of "Flunked Out" list?

 

Doubtful ANY of them ever see a minute of D-1 playing time after this...

what an embarrassment for UCA.  here is an article posted on their message board with more details....

Analyzing the new academic foundation of UCA men's basketball

 

 

Those NCAA minimum standards have been raised this year and the UCA men’s program has never reached those standards, either for single year or multi-year, since it has been a Division I member. That includes a multi-year low of 840 (compared to the new minimum multi-year score of 930) when it began the NCAA DI transtion in 2008.

 

...

 

To refer to many past UCA basketball teams as student-athletes is a major overstatement.

Abiliene Christian too. They have six transfers out of their program and I am assuming they are all ineligible for academic reasons. ACU is going to get hammered for APR violations and be ineligible for post season play for the next few years. What a mess for the Southland.

 

Transfers:

Julian Edmonson - 6'1" Jr.

Rafael Farley - 6'5"  Jr.

Jacob Lancaster - 6'10"  Jr.

Alexsander Milosavlijevic - 6'9"  Jr.

Israel Omigie - 6'2"  Fr.

James Pegues - 6'6"  So
