surprised he's transferring to a program on the other side of the country. dayton is a very short drive away from home, they have a better program, and dayton provides a much better education, especially if you're looking to stay in the midwest after college. so, yeah, i don't get it.
since he decided on a program that far away, i'm assuming that the cal bears never offered. because if they or northwestern did, this looks like a horrible decision.
