Sterling Manley for them is going to be a junior next year and is from suburban Columbus. If they don't get something set up with Ohio State we could offer to play a neutral site game against them at Nationwide Arena and give them a home game on top of it.
They've got another guy, Jeremiah Francis, coming in from Columbus next year so that might make them more interested in playing a game there.

I was thinking of whether something similar could be done in Cleveland? A game so someone from NE Ohio could play in front of more family and friends but the team wants somebody better than Clev St, Akron or Kent.
