The new Coach, Rob Smith, is a former assistant at Creighton.
He ran Creighton's recruiting and did a nice job, especially in light of of their location (Omaha-BRRR!) and the school's high academic standards. My Son attended their Junior Day, and they had a very extensive mailing program, which I'm sure Rob is continuing at Ohio.

Smith seems to be a no-nonsense, high-discipline type of guy, much like the HC at Creighton.

Ironically, my Son is playing Summer Ball in Athens, OH for the Copperheads, lives on OU campus and he has several teammates who play for OU.

Very nice campus, outstanding field & stadium and good support from the community.

Athens is a lovely town about an hour from Columbus. Great little downtown area with good restaurants, bars,etc.

OU also has one of the best Sports Management programs in the country. Many of them intern for the Summer team.

I would highly recommend the place, but my guess is that these letters could be just a random mass-mailing type of thing?

Excellent information - thanks!

Yes, it appears that it is a mass mailing . . . our son attended many tournaments in the Indiana/Ohio area in the past weeks. He was also definitely on Creighton's mailing list and in their database for the past couple of years.

He did as he was asked and got an auto-reply from his questionnaire. He followed up with a personal email and has received no response. It did prompt him to look into the school and the program, so his interest is there if they do contact him.
