Re: West Liberty Hilltopper Basketball
Ben could always look to the football team for a big man. Wake Forest's football profile states TE Thomas Cole was a two time All-Valley and McDonald's All-American basketball select coming out of Wellsburg HS. Yea, he's "only" 6'5" but he's listed at 245 pounds!! Hey, Dan Monteroso pulled the two sport star athlete thing off sooooo, maybe Cole could as well!!
I also note that incoming OL Francisco Pedrozo's profile on the Eastern Michigan football site mentions he played basketball at St Thomas Aquinas HS. At 6'7", 310 pounds he would certainly represent an immovable object in the paint!!!

Did your friend give any insight to why Greely is intent on leaving?

Originally posted by boatcapt View PostIt only takes one offer. I don't see the market being to big for Greely. Think it will come down to taking the SW offer or come back to WLU. I don't think many players would be willing to come back to the school they wanted to leave so he will probably go to SW.

Originally posted by Columbuseer View Postverbalcommits.com has him with an offer from Southern Wesleyan, who went 2-26 last year.Played King last year. They are a private Christian University in the Conference Carolinas league and located in Central, SC.
So I would assume that he will be leaving.
I don't know of anything "official". Maybe check his twitter?

It's still too soon. Can't talk about it. LOL. Too fresh.

Originally posted by Columbuseer View PostI know what you mean about Mercyhurst. They are a very well coached team. If it is any consolation for us, they probably came the closest to taking down NW Missouri State (But I did not watch that game).
What can you do. On to the next one.

Originally posted by Columbuseer View PostHe is the protypical player for West Lib - Intelligent, high basketball IQ, can dribble, pass, shoot from 3 and rebound. I have to admit that when I saw him play, I thought about how he could thrive in an up and down, open court, fast moving game like West Lib plays. I could see WLU averaging 110+ pts a game! Of course, he would be an All-American in any style. Great player! Share the wealth guys. Give us your second pick of a big man from overseas that is in the mold of Cobo. LOL

Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View PostThat's how they found Cobo. Joe sent an assistant to Spain to recruit a center. Word of mouth sent the assisant out to the Canary Islands and that's where they found him.
Interesting story. Cobo came here and didn't speak a word of English ... and will graduate in May with a double major in finance and international business.
Quite an accomplishment.
