Just commit to Scum and get it over with. Lol!

Would love for him to be a Buckeye and probably should because of who he can be coached by, but in the end he is a TTUN legacy. He is going there.

Harding has that weird Scum pipeline. Pretty sure Alfie proudly puts his love of blue on social media.

I hope I am wrong.

Michigan has a solid presence here in Warren, but Harding has sent way more players to Ohio State. This century, the only two athletes from here that chose Michigan over Ohio State are Prescott Burgess & Mario Manningham. Go back a few more years and you can add Carl Diggs in 1999, who was the first & only player from Harding that the Wolverines got in the 90’s. Since 2003, we’ve even had three players walk on at Ohio State (Dimitrios & George Makridis and Patrick Wise).

Deaver Williamson Jr. and the late Davion Rodgers are both ‘10 Harding alum that played for Michigan, but neither were ever offered by Ohio State.

Admittedly, it will be tough for anyone to beat out Michigan for Asa, but the notion that most Harding athletes chose Michigan over Ohio State is false. In fact, Alfie (since you brought his name up) is very close with his cousin Dan “Boom” Herron, who ultimately chose Ohio State over Michigan.
