Saying that, I will have to see what he does next year with his offensive philosophy. He says that he is going to play a little more up-tempo and if he does that and recruits Ohio I am fine with him but he must do those things.

I see you are finally coming around...

Prahalis makes USA U-18 national team
Ohio State incoming freshman point guard Samantha "Sammy" Prahalis kept a streak alive this morning by earning a spot on Team USA for the FIBA Americas Under-18 Championship for Women Tournament.
Prahalis did acknowledge the flutter of some internal butterflies while she was waiting word following the three-day trials at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs. Even though she had never been cut from a team, Prahalis knew she was trying out with 33 of the best players in the country for one of 12 roster spots.
"I was really nervous because I shot terrible," she said. "But I did set up my teammates well and I played good defense. I tried to be a vocal leader on every team I played for. And I wanted to play as hard as I could."
OSU coach Jim Foster watched the tryouts.

was running through some of the women's basketball web sites today and stopped at All Star Girls Report. I found a brief look at recruiting classes for 2009. These are verbal commitments. The letter of intent has yet to be signed. The kids listed could change their minds and a ton of others have yet to make a decision.
Even so, Ohio State was listed at No. 4 since receiving verbal commitments from Pickerington Central's Emilee Harmon and Cincinnati Princeton's Brianna Sanders. Baylor, UConn and Virginia were 1, 2, 3 in that order. Baylor has a commitment from 6-6 center Brittney Griner, the second-ranked player in the country in every recruiting list I've encountered.
I talked to Bret McCormick, the recruiting guru for ASGR, and he stressed how early it is in the process. He actually had to look at the story to remember what he had written.

Basketball dominating Harmon's summer
By JOE ARNOLD ? Sports Writer ? July 1, 2008
PICKERINGTON - A year ago, Emilee Harmon was a bystander at one of the most prestigious prep basketball events in the U.S.
This year she was healthy, happy and eager to learn.
Harmon spent three days in June at the U.S. Olympic Training Center with 34 other high school basketball stars vying for one of 12 roster spots on the Women's U-18 National Basketball Team.
The Pickerington Central senior didn't make the cut on June 12, but was satisfied with the experience nonetheless.
"It was disappointing. You always want to make a team," Harmon said. "At the same time, though, I get the chance to go back out there next year."
Harmon, who has orally committed to play at Ohio State, watched the 2007 tryouts from the sidelines because of a stress fracture in her right leg. Although the injury kept her on the bench, her education never stopped.
