[NU Sports] So you want to dump Bill C

Olah's parents are in Romania, and they did not sign off on his commitment
to Northwestern in time for the early signing period deadline in November.
He cannot sign until April 11, but his coach at Traders Point Christian
Academy near Indianapolis said that NU fans have nothing to worry about.

"He is 100 percent absolutely committed to Northwestern," Dave Jamerson
told the Tribune.

And that's even if there is a coaching change, Jamerson said.

Olah would only reconsider if a new coach came in and was not interested in
signing him.

That's highly doubtful considering Olah is 6-foot-11 and 240 pounds and was
drawing interest from Illinois, Purdue, Boston College and California when
he orally committed to Northwestern.

Olah averaged about 18 points and 12 rebounds for a team that went 24-5.

"He had a great season," Jamerson said. "He will really help Northwestern."
