My brother was bio-chem at YSU,he worked many years at Mobile/Exxon and now works for a private research oil company. YSU has served myself and both of my brothers well.

That's really the point I was trying to make.  In my class at YSU, some got into Ivy League med schools, tOSU, Cincy, Georgetown....

A WBB player with good grades, and good MCAT scores....will write her own ticket for med school from YSU.  To be blunt, the only reason to transfer is if you need a school's name to compensate for a lack of academic performance....I'm not suggesting that's the case here...just noting that the best med schools will take a YSU student who has distinguished themselves.

She'll have a full scholly anywhere, but for someone wanting to launch their career and having to pay for their education, it is foolish to pay more at another University for equal opportunity.

For decades, the YSU pre-med program has been preparing students for NEOCOM in Rootstown, and for, as Nation points out, every other med school in the country.  I am not buying this.  This reminds me of a Boldon recruit from West Virginia who started at point guard as a freshman and then transferred, citing academic reasons.  Where did she end up?  At some podunk branch of West Virginia.  That is like transferring from YSU to Kent-Trumbull.

My guess is playing time. YSU went pretty small this year, relying on the 3 point shot, more than I think Barnes wanted. Regardless, it frees up another scholly.

That would be transfer #2.   YSU basketball is a complete mess and no accountability from the AD to the coaching staff.   You will never see me at a game again.

I believe that makes it 11 transferred out the last 3 years and counting.   Yet sign Slocum to an extension

.@YSUMensHoops Head Coach Jerry Slocum will return for the 2016-17 season according to the YSU athletic department. http://www.thejambar.com/slocum-returns/


Well I know how many games I'll be attending next year... Same as last year... ZERO. Shame on the athletic department.

Not ready to jump off the ledge.  Hate that Jordan left.  With a year off he will physically mature and be a nice shooting guard.   Bryce was only a red shirt frosh but he lacked the back to the basket skill.  He was never going to be a banger but could have been a decent shot blocker with his length.  I think Haygood has more potential.

YSU needs to find another big with Hain and Nickels gone.  Hopefully we can get a transfer.   Umude,Haygood,and Kaufman need to stay healthy.

It's OK Buck...you can jump. The bar's not set very high for MBB, you won't get hurt! In fact, you may find that it's not a "jump" but rather a "step up" to get off any ledge with regards to MBB.

A Vindy perspective sans the Slocum enabling and praise:

Thanks Ed for making some mention of the transfer express that JS has created.
