If your goal is to attend college after high school, I say why not take a look at the best liberal arts school in Northeast Ohio - John Carroll University. You will play right away in the 12 man rotation and the success of the program speaks for itself.

I may have just violated NCAA rules during my first trip to The Hive.

Of course, if trhe NCAA does not care about Mount Union giving football scholarships, they certainly can overlook this . . . To be clear, I am not a "representative of an John Carroll University's athletics interests" as defined by the NCAA bylaws.

Ryan...Mr. Invisible...Mr. Cool...You play with your heart as well as your head and make it all look soooooo easy. I love how you seem to be everywhere yet nowhere throughout the game. Your floating three-pointers are a thing of beauty to watch. You never appear to be ruffled or upset by opponents--no matter how aggressively they play against you. I have enjoyed watching you grow as a player as the season progressed. Good luck in post season and....GO GET SOME!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

The way JC limped into the tourney this year, I would assume anyone that knows which hoop to shoot in would make the team.
