Grose and Hawkins are leaving early for MSU and BGSU respectively, so main players for the Tygers will be missing. Still, the Tygers will have some firepower but not a lot of height. Wide open league this year.

Can't think of a year when the OCC was this weak.
Don't be surprised if Mansfield goes something like 11-11 and wins the OCC.
Something like 9-3 in conference and 2-8 in our of conference. That schedule is crazy tough.

Definitely a lot of talent gone from last year.
I'm not sure I have a great read on the whole conference, a few teams like Mount Vernon I know very little.
As for Ashland, it sounds like things will be very different this year. Ashland has been blessed with some solid wings the last few years. This year will be guard dominate. I'm not sure they will have a player over 6'1 on the roster. Denbow showed flashes last year as a freshman, I expect him to take a big step forward this year. Wouldn't be surprised to see a young team this year, will be fun to see how they grow.

That schedule is crazy tough. Please give a little insight of each OCC team to help explain your statement. " Can't think of a year when the OCC was this weak."Sure, Lex graduated 8 seniors. Only have one player that has played a legit minute of varsity basketball. They will still be solid. They are a solid program. But, they will be way down from where they have been over the last 4 years. 69-19 record. Ashland graduated Denbow Randleman and Zickefoos. Unless some players have developed they will rely HEAVILY on the younger Denbow and Heilman. Has the younger White kid improved? Madison returns the most you could argue, but that's not saying much. Mount Vernon had a pretty good talent last year, but that group didn't have alot of experience. Not sure how many of them return, but they have always been inconsistent whether they have talent or not, since joining the league. Sr. High graduated their two really good scorers. They will have athletes but will they have anyone that can really shoot it? Long football run, tough non league schedule...they may only get 11-12 wins. Have to play SVSM, Northland, Hoban, Hoover, Lima Sr, Olentangy Liberty, Mass Jackson, Ontario, Sandusky and Shelby in non league. I don't get to see Wooster play much but they only return an honorable mention kid from a team that went 9-12 last year. And West Holmes can't beat their way out of a wet paper sack. What do you think, Dude? |

Last year Ashland had 4 players on their JV team that went 6-5, 6-5, 6-3, 6-2 I’m guessing your thinking of two years ago. I don’t think they have anyone in the program over 6’3 this year. At least no one that will be playing varsity. |

I too, have an Ashland program from last year and their heights are
6'5 junior
6'5 soph
6'3 soph
Ashland's JV team was pretty bad last year. So was their freshman team.
Trust me when I say it is Denbow and Heilman that will have to carry them.

Didn't say Denbow and Heilman weren't going to carry them. Just pointing out they should have several players over 6-1. IF they go out.

Dude, what are your thoughts on the OCC? You think it's strong? Mansfield Lex Wooster MV Ashland Madison West Holmes Am I way off? I suppose I never actually assess a league as "strong" outside of the league but more so as a good league or a competitive league. I think this will be the case again this season. It is still early and I'm hearing some kids are not returning to teams this year that made impacts last year. Mansfield must be the favorite with Wooster and Ashland right behind them with what each team returns. Ashland may have the POY on their roster. Madison may have the most experience and have traditionally had talent without wins. This year could be different. Lexington could be a sleeper with all new faces and no single player to focus on. Their ending spot depends on if they can grow as a group from jv to varsity as a group. Mount Vernon's size will give teams trouble with 6-8 guys that are 6'2" or bigger that can all be on the floor together. West Holmes will improve under their second year coach and has changed their schedule a little to help that. |

Then the 2 6-5 underclassmen on last years roster didn't go out this year OR they shrunk.  |

The announcer on WMFD might want to be careful being overly critical of officiating in Lex-Ontario game. It breaches on unprofessionalism.

The officials really "let 'em play", which I'm fine with, did not favor Ontario.

I watched this game on tv and can confirm both announcers were Ontario fans. Mostly because they said as much during the game. I heard them question the refs for a none travel call on one end while asking for an allowed continuation on the other. At time they were worse than some fans who attend games but do not know much about the game. I suppose, like officials, their is a local shortage of good qualified tv announcers. |
