Is Pogue destined to go the prep school/JC route?

Is Pogue destined to go the prep school/JC route?

Last thing I heard was that he needed to raise his ACT score a bit.....

Now that Huggins is a WVU, I would think that might be a good match for both parties

I think Pogue's best position might be a defensive tackle on the football team. I really don't know how many scollies BH has for future Mountaineers.

DAYTON ? Aaron Pogue's next stop will be at Vincennes (Ind.) University. Maybe.


Dunbar High School's senior leader has opted for the junior college basketball route. However, an agreement has been made with Vincennes that he can back out and instead enroll with a Division I program, should he land an offer by the start of the 2007-08 school year.

That possibility evolved when Pogue recently scored high enough on the ACT college entrance exam to qualify for a D-I scholarship.
"There's a whole lot of people that doubted me, who didn't think I'd make the score," Pogue said on Monday. "It's my choice. I could have picked a D-I, but there's no point in picking a weak D-I college."
Should Pogue stay for one season, he'd have three seasons of eligibility remaining (or two and two). According to Wolverines coach Pete Pullen, USC, West Virginia, Pittsburgh and even two-time defending national
champion Florida are interested.

I hate Dayton. Hope everyone's ok.

[OSUBasketballJunkie]

Those two kids are lucky to be alive today......sounds like a random, senseless act....wrong place at the wrong time......good to hear neither wound is life threatening.

[LitlBuck]

These random shootings just sicken me! Thank goodness they will be okay.

As they sat in the out-of-gas Pontiac Grand Am ? waiting for the one's stepdad to return from Kroger with some fuel ? the pair shared idle talk about people in the neighborhood, about going home to eat later on and especially about their basketball.
Dorian Hoover and Aaron Pogue are two of the city's most prominent big men, and they'd just spent the early part of that evening on May 9 battling against each other in the weekly open gym at Sinclair Community College.
