Hopefully Southern's new coach gets off to as strong of a recruiting start as Dana Ford has:

I got to watch some of their transfer PG from last year, Tyrik Dixon, previously of Middle Tennessee. He might be a good one.
Looking at how his teams play and how Dana carries himself, I am not surprised.
Mizzou State was very fortunate to hire Dana Ford. Very fortunate. He is a wonderfully effective leader of young men. SIU would do well if they can hire someone with coaching ability and people qualities that are the equal of Dana Ford.

(3) Donald Trump [(Jan 20, 2020), when asked if he's worried about a pandemic]: “No. Not at all. And we have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It’s — going to be just fine.”
