yeah but i do not think he is as explosive as hitchens, and they both have good outside shots, i go to ohio state so i go to a lot of games, and whenever someone like Pj Hill goes in the game i think why the hell is Hitchens going to a Mac school and not here.Captain Jack wrote:cat1606 wrote:i would take hitchens over any guard on ohio states team.
Hitchens is a very good player, but the last time I watched the Buckeyes they had this guard named Jamar Butler who wasn't bad.
Anthony Hitchens possible McDonald's All-American

beezee...c'mon man he's a legit 5'9"lol
D3 is correct...and to add one they are not only skeptical, it is against the rules to make certain contacts with kids that have committed. Obviously that rule is in there for a reason. Many kids want to get the process over with and don't want their phone ringing off the hook afterwards.
Saying that Hump has the talent and heart to play just about anywhere. Akron will be a great fit for him.
GO CAVS!!!
contacts.
Actually there is NO written rule that says a school can not continue to contact a kid after they have committed, as long as the contact is done in the manner prescribed. A kid is not off limits until they sign their LOI. It is a matter of principal, but it happens often.

Hitchens is very deserving for this nomination. Congratulations. The way he has been playing this season is incredible and on his way to leading the Cavs to a state title. I believe he is the first from Ross County since Craig Kearns in the early 90,s.
I think Hitchens and Akron is a nice fit. He will do well in the MAC. Probably be all league before he is finished but I don't understand the Ohio state talk. I think he, his coaches, and family realize he is going to get a chance to excell at Akron and all the Chillicothe fans should be excited and supportive of his decision.
Lets not forget Dante Jackson one of if not the top player to come out of the southeast district in 35 years has a hard time getting minutes at Xavier. I undertstand They are a little better than OSU
his limited p.t. has proven to me that major college basketball is on another level than we see around here. If he and Hitchens are going to their respective schools. Maybe i need to give Coaches a little more credit when I question why someone is playing on their team.

nickle, Dante also walked into a situation where the team has 2 senior guards. Next year he will not only be a likely starter but also a team leader as only a soph. Hitchens also will have an excellent opportunity to start at Akron as a freshman as i believe they graduate 3 senior guards after this season in Dials, Middleton, and McNeese.
and thats just how it is...Dshanton3
I just wish he went here at ohio state so i could watch him every home game
.... I think his amazing quickness, ball handling, and ability shoot off the dribble from anywhere on the court help off set his lack of height. I think the sky is the limit for him, just depends how hard he wants to work in high school, College sports are like a job.
