We talked about this on a recent College Basketball Weekly and LT went with Cincinnati and Sam went with Raleigh Durham as the top place to live if you are a College Basketball Hoops Fan.

Damn, GREAT guy
RIP big Dave 🙏🙏🙏
Dave Berk, Centerville, Ohio, passed this morning. He had been battling fourth stage liver cancer for months.
Dave was like a little brother to me. We worked together in the college football recruiting and evaluation business for over 25 years. He work harder and spent more late hours than anybody in the social media recruiting business. Never received the proper recognition. Dave Berk will be missed so much. Rest in peace.

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY:
The SS Edmund Fitzgerald was a Great Lakes freighter that sank on November 10, 1975, during a severe storm in Lake Superior. This tragic event resulted in the loss of all 29 crew members on board, marking it as one of the most significant maritime disasters in the history of the Great Lakes. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) suggested that the ship sank suddenly due to flooding of the cargo hold, likely caused by the collapse of hatch covers under the weight of large waves. The sinking of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald remains a poignant chapter in maritime history, inspiring songs, documentaries, and memorials. ⚓️
Here’s the Gordon Lightfoot music video from 1976 about this tragedy…

This hits hard. Dave and I were friends for 20+ years, brought together by our shared passion for football and helping high school athletes chase their dreams. He was a huge supporter of my annual @BOTMWCombine from Day 1 and never missed in 17 years .
Prayers and condolences to his family.
Rest in peace, big guy.

Today I lost a mentor, friend, and an advisor of life...
I am so thankful that I was able to pickup that call last night and share one last moment with you... however all you truly cared about was how I was doing
I pray to our Father that you are welcomed into the kingdom with a warm hug and knowing how many lives you truly impacted
Our conversations until 3-4am talking ball and memories and recruiting may never be had again on this earth.. however I'll be waiting for the moment to share another with you in heaven
You said last night you have always loved me like a son.. I will do my best to make you proud as one
I love you Dave, say hello to our favorite players you end up enjoying a conversation with up there
You fought the hard fight
-Love your extended son

This is hitting me hard.
Dave was one of the first people I worked with in the industry and was extremely kind and helpful.
An absolutely wonderful human and one of the best talent evaluators I have been around.
Condolences go out to his loved ones.

As a long time poster on the old UC Scout board I am sad to hear about this.
Today, I’m heartbroken to hear about the passing of Dave Berk. (@Dave_Berk)
Back in 2013-2014, Dave gave me an opportunity that I will always be grateful for. He opened the door for me to cover two of my favorite programs, Cincinnati Bearcats Football and Basketball, as a journalist with Scout.com’s Bearcats Insider.
At the time, it was an opportunity I was incredibly excited about, and one that allowed me to experience something I had always been passionate about. Dave believed in me enough to give me that chance, and I’ll never forget it. Sometimes people come into your life and make an impact in ways they may never fully realize. Dave was one of those people for me.
Beyond the opportunity, I’m grateful for the friendship, the encouragement, and the chance to be part of something special. I’ll always appreciate him for opening that door and allowing me to pursue something I truly loved.
My heart goes out to Dave’s wife, children, and the entire Berk family. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.
Thank you, Dave, for believing in me, giving me an opportunity, and being a part of my journey. Your kindness and the impact you made on others will not be forgotten.
Rest peacefully, my friend. You will be missed. ❤️

Harlem Globetrotters legend Hubert "Geese" Ausbie has died at age 88, the team announced.
One of the most influential players in franchise history, Ausbie spent more than two decades with the team and was honored with a Globetrotters Legends ring.

In a time where not many people were willing to give me a chance as a quarterback, Dave was one of the few people in my corner early on! I always appreciated him believing in me! It was always great to see him and catch up! Always asking about me and the family. He was a great person who did so much for high school and collegiate athletes! Dave will be missed and sending my best to his whole family

They have had speakers for years because it is so loud people on the opposite side of the stadium literally can’t hear the band. They turn them on when the band plays. Certainly not unique.
