      More corroboration: His name has been removed from the roster at OhioBobcats.com.
      “The rebellion on the populist right against the results of the 2020 election was partly a cynical, knowing effort by political operators and their hype men in the media to steal an election or at least get rich trying. But it was also the tragic consequence of the informational malnourishment so badly afflicting the nation. ... Americans gorge themselves daily on empty informational calories, indulging their sugar fixes of self-affirming half-truths and even outright lies.'

          Quote from Ohio MBK coach John Groce. "Joe Mitchell has chosen to leave Ohio University to pursue options closer to home."

            Well, WSU has a very welcoming walk-on program! He could RS this year and get some minutes in the future for his hometown team, and as far as D-I goes, it doesn't get much closer to home than the Shox!

            Even as a walk-on, his tuition would likely be cheaper than at a school like Friends (where a full athletic scholarship is equivalent to roughly 40% of tuition). Maybe Washburn or ESU would be his preference, but I'd love to have him here. Of course there is always the possability that he just didn't like Ohio and will find a D-I somewhere else.

              What about Newman? They are now DII. I don't know how much tuition is there, or how much an athletic schollie helps.

                Newman is roughly $21,000 a year. I'm a current student-athlete there. They do offer some very good transfer scholarships and with a basketball ship he could probably get 60-70% in scholarships.

                  Looking at his twitter posts and considering the sources of the rumor, I'm sure Joe already has a new school and pretty confident it's WSU.

                    Are we trying to field two squads or something? If true, his addition would bring us up to 18 players on the roster.

                    EDIT: Check that, it would bring us up to 19 players, since James Anacreon is listed on goshockers yet.

                        Not saying we shouldn't take him, just pointing out that the roster is getting really big.

                          What are the rules for having a junior varsity team?

                          I was searching for junior varsity teams and saw that North Carolina has one. Only non-scholarship players can be on the team. Anyone going to North Carolina can try out for the team and play on it for two years. If they're good enough, they could be given a scholarship to play varsity basketball the final two years.

                          So what do we have right now, about 6-7 walk-ons?

                            A farm system! I had no idea.

                            Thanks for the information.

                              Isn't there someone who can verify whether he is a WSU or not

                                I have heard from a reliable source that he at WSU and will be on the team. Could be wrong, but this person would have inside info on the situation.
