Davin Zeigler is no longer listed on the BGSU basketball roster.
It isn't a huge shock. After seeming to excel in filling the absence left by the quick departure of Dylan Frye last year, I think people had high hopes for him. I assumed he would start this year, but he has not...he did not play more than 17 minutes in any game. He played only 4 against Buffalo and did not play at all over the last two games. I'm told he wasn't in the "oar" picture after the game.
Of course, we have no idea what's going on behind the scenes. We had high hopes for him...he was clearly athletic and came from a family with a basketball DNA. It appears that it hasn't worked out here but we have no idea what the bigger picture is.
Maybe this is a Frye-like situation and the whole thing will be a memory soon.
As I always say, you need a critical mass of good players to win the MAC. Having a guy like Zeigler to bring speed and energy--even off the bench--would help. On the other hand, if it wasn't going to work out, it might as well be now.
BG has two scholarships open now. Also, Zeigler and Chandler Turner came to BG together, and neither is making much of a contribution right now.
Best of luck to Davin.
