Westerville (Andre's home) to Indianapolis (Butler's home) is a straight shot on I-70, 3:06 hr and 189 mi. Family could visit easily on weekends. OSC
Andre Wesson - 2016 Offer
- Thread starter SFspidur
- Start date
Easy visit if Andre were to go there: kind of a nearby alternative to UR and also an upgrade to the P6. OSC
I thought OSU was tight on schollies?

New Mexico transfer Cullen Neal will visit Ohio State the third week of April.
They only have 1 right now, but they could be expecting players to transfer out. Not sure why they have interest in Neal though, he is just a high volume/low efficiency shooter with a high turnover rate. Most New Mexico fans are happy to see him leave the program.
Official visits are paid for by the program (transportation, lodging, etc). Unofficial visits are paid for by the recruit. I believe each program is limited in the number of official visits they can have per year, but there is no limit on unofficial visits.
Not sure about visits per school, but thought each player was limited to 5 official visits.
was Andre's visit here an official? wonder why he'd be going to Butler on an unofficial unless he's already used his 5.
Yes, UR visit was official. He can just drive to Butler in 3 hours so no need for an official visit. OSC
know what you're saying but don't agree with the terminology. I think of a stretch 4 as a big forward who spends most of his time outside. like Marshall Wood or even moreso Patrick O'Malley. Wesson's more of a true 3. a perfect 3. he'd be a perimeter forward. you can play him with another perimeter forward and we could call him a 3 or a 4 if we like. but he's just a forward. like Greg Stevenson. didn't matter if we called Greg a 3 or a 4. he was a forward.
UR offers little to nothing to the Big East, unfortunately.
Why hasn't this thread died yet? Honestly, the only chance we get Wesson is if the kid tears up his knee playing pickup tomorrow.

A stretch 4 is typically a PF that can hit the corners and shoot the three but also play down low. You could argue that all of our 4s are supposed to be stretch 4s. Marshall has no inside game and in my view isn't a 4 or stretch 4, he's a 3, at least on O.
Of note, I completely agree that Wesson is a 3. I just think there's an expectation he will play 4 for us, probably because we don't have an identifiable option there and he's slightly taller than sherod.
The Butler offer doesn't really factor in here much, IMO. His playing time there would not be significantly different from OSU. Butler was better than OSU this year and likely will be better next year. If he's going to stay in the state of Ohio, he's going to Ohio State to play with his brother. If not, he's going to come here.
Not surprisingly, an OSU freshman guard (former 4 star recruit) announced he is transferring. So OSU now has two open spots. But that also means it has room for another guy who could take PT from Wesson.
There are at least three, probably more, players transferring out of Ohio State this year. Could mean more playing time for Wesson if he goes there, could mean Thad is retiring.
I was hesitant to bring it up, but this thread needs more posts. I saw Andrew White working out in the Robins Center this past Saturday afternoon.
There are few things funnier than a good old fashioned shot to the balls...
I was posting about Mitchell.
Harris is a tiny guard in the mold of K0. Maybe we should go after him! Giddens is 6-10 and wants to be closer to his home in Georgia. Richmond is closer to Georgia than Ohio, last I checked!
This is playing out the way we expected. I figured that when OSU offered Andre, it was because there were some transfers coming. Their fans already were not thrilled with the class coming in next year. This mass exodus should raise some eyebrows.
When we sign Andre Wesson and get Andrew White as a grad transfer on the same day, this site will self-combust.
