Hiram Fuller

5/22/01: "After a contentious recruiting saga that tried family relationships, Fuller reneged on a commitment to Cincinnati to obey his mother's wishes and sign with Fresno State in November. "That's the toughest decision a basketball player could ever go through," Fuller says while touring his new campus. He has no regrets. Cincinnati, after all, is far from the No. 1 team it was just more than a year ago. Point guard Kenny Satterfield has entered the NBA draft, and coach Bob Huggins is rumored on the short list for the Cleveland Cavaliers opening. "I'm kind of glad I didn't go there," says Fuller, a junior who played last season at Wabash Valley (Ill.) Junior College. "This is a dream come true right here." Early returns indicate Fuller, rated the 31st-best prospect in the class of 2003, is better than advertised. He arrived 6-foot-10, an inch taller than expected, and with a muscular 235-pound physique." - Fresno Bee


12/14/00:
JUCO Junction: Hiram, can you talk a little about the decision making process, between Fresno and Cincinnati?
Hiram Fuller: It just came down to a gut feeling. There was a lot of thinking about it. That's just how I made it.

JJ: Can you take us through what happened on the day that you officially signed with Fresno State. At first, you had signed a letter with Cincinnati, but then after talking with your mom you changed your mind.
HF: I signed at first with Cincinnati. All we had was a nice long talk about the situations and everything, and I just made my decision from there. Obviously, I re-signed (with Fresno) after that.

JJ: At any point, did you try talking your mom into signing the letter for Cincinnati?
HF: I talked to her about it, but that's my mother, and I trust her. I trust her feelings too, so that's why I went along with her.

JJ: How difficult was the situation to deal with for you at times, with your mom being quoted in the paper, and the fact that you had to make a decision this fall?
HF: It was very difficult. There were certain things that should not have been said out there. It came out like that. I guess I had to endure through this so that other people can learn from what I've gone through. I hope nobody ever has to go what I've been through, because it was hell on earth, no doubt.

JJ: Any regrets about not being able to sign with Cincinnati?
HF: I loved Cincinnati. Cincinnati is a great place. It just caught my eye. When I first got there, I fell in love with it.

JJ: When you called Cincy and told them you weren't coming, how did that go?
HF: I just told them I'm sorry and that I had to make a change. That's how I did it. I talked to Coach [Keith] Legree.

11/16: "A truly bizarre scenario has unfolded with the recruitment of Hiram Fuller, one of the top junior college basketball prospects in the country. JUCO Junction spoke with sources today close to the Wabash Valley basketball program, who confirmed that the 6-9, 230 pound power forward from Tacoma, Wash., has sent a valid letter of intent to Fresno State. Fuller signed a letter to attend Cincinnati on Monday, but that letter would not be valid unless Hiram could secure the signature of his mother, Cherrie Clark, on the letter. Fuller is 19 years old. In order for his signature to be binding, he needed a guardian, in this case his mom, to also pen any national letter of intent he signed. And that obstacle for the Bearcat basketball program could never be cleared. Had he been 21 years of age, Fuller could have signed the letter on his own, and it would have been legally binding. Mrs. Clark and her brother flew to St. Louis and drove up to meet Hiram on Wednesday in the Mt. Carmel, Ill. area, according to a story in today's Fresno Bee. Mrs. Clark had said repeatedly in interviews with the Bee this fall that she would only sign a letter for Fresno State. After that meeting between Hiram and his mom, Fresno State received a valid letter of intent from Fuller (which was signed by his mom), the newspaper article states." - Juco Junction

11/15: "Fresno State bolstered its inside game for next season with the signing of one of the nation's top junior college power forwards.
Hiram Fuller, a 6-9, 235-pound sophomore from Wabash Valley College in Mt. Carmel, Ill., signed today with the Bulldogs according to head coach Jerry Tarkanian. Fuller signed during the early signing period, which began Nov. 8. Fuller is a native of Tacoma, Wash., where he starred at Stadium High School. Fuller played last season at Modesto Junior College, where he averaged 14 points and 12 rebounds per game. He was selected a third-team preseason All-American by Street and Smith's for Wabash Valley, ranked No. 14 in the national polls. He is rated the No. 2 power forward in junior college basketball by Rick Ball of Ballplayers JC Report. Fuller's junior college coach is Jay Spoonhour, son of former Saint Louis coach Charlie Spoonhour. "Hiram is a great player," said head coach Jerry Tarkanian. "He's a player we have liked for a long time and that (assistant coach) Danny (Tarkanian) has been recruiting for three years. He committed to us out of high school. He's one of the best junior college players in the country and I don't think we could have gotten a better player. He is going to have an immediate impact and he has NBA potential. He's that good a player. He's a big and physical player and he can really shoot the basketball. He shoots a lot of threes. The thing I really like about him is that he is such a great person." Fuller, who also considered Cincinnati and Oregon, will be the only signing for Fresno State during the early signing period."

11/15: "Hiram Fuller has signed a national letter of intent to attend the University of Cincinnati — against his mother's wishes — and called it “the toughest decision I've ever made in my life.” The 6-foot-9 power forward from Wabash Valley College in Mount Carmel, Ill., is holding a press conference Thursday to announce his choice. He issued only a prepared statement Tuesday. “I've prayed on it, I've taken time to sit alone and think about it all, and I truly feel that the best fit for me is the University of Cincinnati,” Fuller said. “I know this is disappointing to some, but it has been a dream of mine since the eighth grade to play at a top-level, nationally ranked school. Since I was blessed with the opportunity I have today, I wanted that dream to come true.” - Cin Enquirer

11/14: A good source tells me that Hiram Fuller will sign with the Bearcats. - Mike Ryan

11/10: "On the second day of the early signing period, no headway was made in the contentious courtship of Hiram Fuller, the power forward from Wabash Valley (Ill.) Junior College who is torn between Fresno State and Cincinnati. Fuller's mother has said she will not sign a letter of intent, which must be signed by student and guardian, for any school other than Fresno State. But Fuller could play for Cincinnati without his mother's signature. All the letter of intent does, according to the National Letter of Intent organization, is stop the recruiting process. But without one, Cincinnati would be taking a risk, because Fuller could still be recruited by other schools and change his mind." - Fresno Bee

11/9: "has taken three official visits this fall, but he is still in the process of sorting things out as the early signing period got under way this week. He told JUCO Junction that he expects to have a decision by next Wednesday. Hiram Fuller, the talented 6-9, 230 pound power forward from Wabash Valley J.C. in Mt. Carmel, Ill., said he has still not reached a decision. Fuller told JUCO Junction earlier this week that he will still pick from among Fresno State, Cincinnati and Oregon. "I don't have a top two, not yet," he said. "I am still considering all three schools, and will have a decision by the 15th." Fuller took official visits to all of the above three schools this fall. He expects to have a decision by Nov. 15, which is the final day of the, fall signing period." - Juco Junction

11/5: "A care package will arrive at Wabash Valley Junior College in Mt. Carmel, Ill., early this week addressed to Hiram Fuller. The return address will be from his mother. Included will be a calling card, which the son is expected to use Wednesday to voice his much-awaited college decision to his mother, Cherrie Clark, in Tacoma, Wash. Wednesday, the first day of the early signing period is Clark's self-imposed deadline. Fuller, the power forward who is torn between Fresno State and Cincinnati, has said he will go into seclusion during the early signing week and end the speculation in a Nov.15 press conference. Clark spoke to her son Tuesday, two days after Fuller returned from Cincinnati, where he made his final official visit. There, the mother said, he stayed in a "nice hotel on campus and talked with Kenyon Martin a former Bearcat and the No.1 pick in June's NBA Draft." - Fresno Bee

10/31: "In what is fast becoming a tug-of-war between mother and son, the Hiram Fuller recruiting saga took a new twist this weekend, as the highly-touted power forward returned from his official visit to Cincinnati.

This much is certain: The 6-foot-9 Fuller is done taking visits, Oregon is out, and Fresno State certainly is not the lock it appeared to be two weeks ago. Fuller told Cincinnati newspapers he plans to go into seclusion during the early signing period week of Nov.8-15 before making his choice between the Bulldogs and Bearcats at a Nov 15 press conference. Fuller has no phone at Wabash Valley Junior College in Mt. Carmel, Ill., and could not be reached for comment. Repeated calls to first-year coach Jay Spoonhour were not returned. Cherrie Clark, Fuller's mother, reached at her home Monday morning in Tacoma, Wash., said she had not heard from her son since he returned from the Cincinnati trip. He had called twice Sunday evening, but Clark works at night. "Call back Friday, and I'll have something for you," she said. Clark has said she would not sign a letter of intent for any school other than Fresno State. And because Fuller does not turn 21 until May 13 2002, he needs a guardian's signature on the letter of intent as well as his own. Though Clark said her son told her as they departed Fresno on his official visit that he would sign with the Bulldogs, after this past weekend he said he was confused. "My mom, she loves Fresno State," Fuller told the Cincinnati Enquirer. "I'm not going to knock my mom at all. I love her with all my heart. But it's where I'm going to school. It's going to be my future. I'm going to talk to her over the phone and let her know how I feel. "Fresno and Cincinnati, they're both good schools coached by Hall of Fame coaches. I've got a lot of love for Fresno State, and I've got a lot of love for here, too." During Friday night's NBA exhibition at the Shoemaker Center between the New Jersey Nets and the Cleveland Cavaliers, Fuller had front-row seats along with Keith Langford, also on a visit, and current Bearcats Kenny Satterfield, Steve Logan and Donald Little. The Nets' Kenyon Martin, the former Bearcat and the No.1 pick in June's NBA Draft, put on a show for the players. Rated the No.2 junior college power forward in the country, Fuller said he was "somewhat" leaning toward Fresno State during his official visit two weeks ago. Now he appears to be torn, and that is what his mother is upset about. Fuller averaged 13 points and 10 rebounds last year for Modesto Junior College. He transferred to Wabash Valley following a coaching change. When he left for school Aug.23, Clark said, her son's heart was sold on Fresno State. But after taking unofficial visits to Cincinnati and Louisville she said he swayed. She was unhappy she was not notified of the trips and that it was difficult to get in contact with her son. John Loyer, a former Cincinnati assistant, resigned as Wabash Valley coach in early October to take a position with the NBA's Portland Trail Blazers. New coach Spoonhour is the son of former Saint Louis coach Charlie Spoonhour, a close friend of Cincinnati coach Bob Huggins. Clark has said that if Fuller does not sign with Fresno State during the early signing period, she will "fly to St. Louis, rent a car and snatch him out of the school." The Bulldogs hope to sign two recruits for next season. NCAA rules preclude coaches from commenting on potential recruits until the player signs a letter of intent." - Fresno Bee

10/30: "has narrowed his two choices for college down to two, the University of Cincinnati and Fresno State, and will make his decision based on what his heart indicates. So what is his heart telling him now? ''It's confused,'' he said. The 6-foot-9 power forward from Wabash Valley (Ill.) College made an official visit over the weekend to UC along with prep shooting guard Keith Langford of Crowley, Texas. Fuller said he will go into seclusion the week of the November early signing period (Nov. 8-15) before making a decision Nov. 15 at a press conference, the last day of the signing period. He's already officially visited Fresno State and Oregon, but has eliminated the Ducks. Fuller said he isn't taking any more visits. "It's just where my heart wants me to go," he said. "Both schools have great coaches, both have Hall of Fame coaches and programs. It's going to come down to what I feel inside, where my heart is going to take me." But it's clear which school Fuller's mother prefers. She told the Fresno Bee that she would not sign a national letter of intent unless it's to Fresno State. Fuller said he was surprised by the report. "It kind of caught me off guard," he said. "It wasn't a big deal to me. It's just my mom saying her words. My mom is intelligent and has her own opinion. We just feel differently." Meanwhile, Fuller said he was initially sad when John Loyer, the former UC assistant and Wabash coach, left for a position with the Portland TrailBlazers but he understood. He said he enjoys playing for new coach Jay Spoonhour, the son of former Saint Louis coach Charlie Spoonhour, a close friend of UC coach Bob Huggins. "You have to do what's best for you," Fuller said of Loyer. "I told him, "If you wouldn't have gone to the TrailBlazers, I would have been kicking your (butt) myself.' That's a great opportunity and I'm happy for him." Meanwhile, the 6-4 Langford said he enjoyed his trip to UC, but will visit Kansas this weekend and make a decision after the trip. "I had a great time and the people at Cincinnati showed me a lot of love," Langford said. "I really clicked with all the people. People just think that Cincinnati is just for basketball, but it really has a lot of things to offer." - Cincy Post

10/21: "Our Ohio Editor Chris Johnson tells us that 6'9 Hiram Fuller from Wabash Valley (JC) IL, who ranks as the #2 power forward in the junior college ranks, isn't the lock that some people think he is for Cincinnati. As it stands now Cincinnati, Fresno State, and Oregon are the top three schools on his list. However, the Fresno Bee is reporting that there is no way Fuller's mother will co-sign his National Letter-of-Intent for any school, except Fresno State, which, by the way, placed him at Wabash Valley in the first place. As a matter of fact, the newspaper quotes Fuller's mother saying that she doesn't like Cincinnati head coach Bobby Huggins. So it appears there is no way she will let her son go there." - HoopScoop

10/20: "the much-ballyhooed power forward from Wabash Valley Junior College in Mt. Carmel, Ill., is expected to sign with the Fresno State men's basketball team next month. Fuller's mother, Cherrie Clark, said Thursday from her home in Tacoma, Wash., that her son told her his plans at the end of his official visit to Fresno State last weekend. Fuller is considered the No.2 junior college power forward in the nation behind Oxnard's Chris Massie, who has made an oral commitment to Memphis. On Sunday, as Fresno State coach Jerry Tarkanian was walking mother and son to the airport, a stranger -- evidently familiar with the recruiting situation -- approached and said, "You better not disappoint your mother." After the two checked in their bags, Fuller made his intentions clear. "Mom," Fuller said, "don't worry. I'm going to sign with them." "Son," she answered, "thank you." Fuller does not have a phone at Wabash Valley and could not be reached for comment. He still plans, Clark said, to visit Cincinnati next weekend. But she said she isn't worried he will change his mind. Jay Spoonhour, who begins his first season as coach at Wabash Valley, would neither confirm nor deny Fuller's intentions. The 6-foot-9, 230-pound Fuller averaged 13 points and 10 rebounds a game last season at Modesto Junior College. His mother has long been sold on the Bulldogs because of the coaching staff and the community. She also is unhappy with Cincinnati and said she was considering calling the NCAA to ask if it could stop a school from recruiting her son. She said if Fuller doesn't sign during the early period (Nov.8-15) with the Bulldogs, "I'll fly out to St. Louis, rent a car and snatch him out of there." The Bulldogs have been recruiting Fuller for nearly two years since he was a senior at Tacoma High. The Bearcats didn't jump in, Clark said, until after Fuller transferred to Wabash Valley. Clark said Fuller left for school Aug.23 with his sights set on Fresno State. But he wavered over the ensuing weeks, and reports surfaced that Cincinnati was the leading contender. "When my son left home he was Fresno State-bound," she said Saturday during Fuller's visit. "He hadn't been at Wabash a good damn month, and all of a sudden it's Cincinnati." Fuller then took his first of what will be three official school visits to Oregon in early October. Clark said she was upset when Wabash coaches took her son on unofficial visits to Louisville and Cincinnati in September without her consent. Fuller's former coach at Wabash, John Loyer, left just this month to take a position with the Portland Trail Blazers. Loyer served as a Cincinnati assistant under Bob Huggins for nine years. While Fuller said the chances were "pretty good" he would be a Bulldog, Clark was adamant, saying only Fresno State would get her signature on the letter of intent, which must be signed by the student and a guardian. Clark said she called Huggins and told the coach to back off her son, but the school continued to recruit Fuller. NCAA rules preclude coaches from commenting on recruits until they sign a letter of intent. "I was really upset with Huggins," she said. "He will never, never get my damn signature at all. I mean that. I am a woman of my word." - Fresno Bee

10/19: "is looking at making a fall decision. As reported previously by JUCO Junction, Fuller took official visits to both Oregon and Fresno State over the past two weekends. He had previously taken unofficial visits to Cincinnati and Louisville, and Fuller said he plans on officially visiting Cincinnati from Oct. 27-29, before possibly rendering a decision this fall. September. Fuller visited Fresno State this past weekend, from Oct. 13-15. "I love Danny Tarkanian, the coaches and kids were great at Fresno State," he said. The weekend before, Fuller visited Oregon from Oct. 6-8. "Coach Kent was nice, I liked the group there," he said. "The chemistry was great. Everything was just fine." As for a timetable on his decision? "I am going to try and make one after I make my visit to Cincinnati," he said. Fuller is one of the top sophomore big men in the JUCO ranks this year. JUCO Junction caught him in action last season when he played at Modesto J.C. in California. Following a coaching change at Modesto last spring, Fuller opted to transfer, and resurfaced at Wabash Valley this fall." - Juco Junction

10/14: "Sitting in the bleachers was Hiram Fuller, a power forward from Wabash Valley Junior College in Illinois. A native of Tacoma, Wash., Fuller was in the middle of his official visit to Fresno State. He is the #2 junior college power forward according to Ballplayers JC Report. Last season at Modesto Junior College, he averaged 13 points and 10 rebounds per game. The 6-foot 9-inch Fuller took an official visit to Oregon last week, and plans on taking one to Cincinnati the weekend of Oct 27. Although he said he won't make a decision until the beginning of November, he liked what he saw at Fresno State. "It's tight," he said. "I really like it. It looks like a really nice place. Tark's really nice." The Bulldogs have been recruiting Fuller for almost two years, and the hardest of any school that's interested. Asked what are the chances he would choose Fresno State, Fuller said "pretty good." Asked if he was leaning toward the Bulldogs, he paused before replying, "somewhat." "I have a lot of thinking to do," he added. His mother, Cherrie Clark, said she will try her best to persuade her son to choose Fresno State. She has checked out the area, and her heart is sold on the Bulldogs. "Fresno State has my signature on the national letter of intent," she said. "I'm not signing for anyone else." - Fresno Bee

10/4: "took an unofficial visit to Cincinnati this past weekend (Sept. 30). But Fuller did not make a commitment on his visit to the Conference USA power. In fact, he informed JUCO Junction that he could conceivably take official visits to Oregon this weekend (Oct. 6-8) and Fresno State next weekend (Oct. 13-15). He cautioned that those visits were not etched in stone and could be subject to change.
"Cincinnati is pretty high on my list, but I am just open," Fuller said. "I don't know who wrote all that stuff in the papers about me being close to committing to Cincy, but my mom called me and she was mad because she did not know what was going on." In addition to Cincy, Fuller has also taken an unofficial visit to Louisville this fall, and includes St. Louis as one of his top five considerations. "I liked Denny Crum," Fuller said of his meeting with the long-time Cardinal head coach. "He is a really nice head coach, and I feel that he has a lot of knowledge behind him. But I am going to keep my options open." How did his encounter with fire and brimstone Cincinnati Head Coach Bob Huggins go this weekend? "I love Huggins, he's real cool," Fuller said. "He's just a straight forward and up front person, and I just like his mental attitude about the game of basketball." So to recap, Fuller's top five includes Cincinnati, Fresno State, Oregon, Louisville and St. Louis. Iowa State is another program that is aggressively courting Fuller, he said, while Kansas State and UNLV are also trying to secure his signature on a national letter of intent. Although his recruitment is pushing along strongly at this time, Fuller is still not sure if he will ink in the fall or spring. "I have no idea at this point in time," he said. With potential visits to Oregon and Fresno State on tap, Fuller did not rule out a return trip to Cincinnati on an official basis. "I might take an official visit there, because I really did not do much when I was there," Fuller said. "I just really saw the school, but I wanted to see how the business program is at the school." Fuller's recruitment was complicated slightly this past week with the departure of Wabash Valley Head Coach John Loyer, a former Bearcat assistant coach who recently left the junior college to take a position with the NBA's Portland Trailblazers. "It's kind of put things on halt," Fuller said. "I am just going to have to deal with it and adjust to it. I am just going to have to do it on my own if I have to. But I know my (asst.) coach here can help me out too." Fuller transferred from Modesto J.C. in California to Wabash Valley this fall. He is a native of Tacoma, Wash." - Juco Junction

10/00: Named Third Teamm, Pre-Season JUCO All American - Street & Smith Magazine

10/2: "Fuller visited (Cincinnati) unofficially although he said he hopes to make an official visit for Midnight Madness the weekend of Oct. 13. UC and Fresno State lead a host of schools for Fuller. The University of Miami, Florida State, Saint Louis, Louisville, UNLV, USC, Georgia, Georgia State and Kansas State have also shown interest. Fuller has yet to make an official visit although he made an unofficial visit to Louisville two weeks ago. A native of St. Louis, Fuller played his high school ball in Tacoma, Wash., before playing last season at Modesto (Calif.) Junior College. He transferred to Wabash this season where he plays for former Cincinnati assistant John Loyer. Loyer also has on his roster 6-7 freshman forward Omari Westley, a Cleveland native who has indicated in the past that he wants to attend UC." - Cincy Post

10/1: "a 6-foot-9, 230-pound forward from Wabash Valley College in Mount Carmel, Ill., paid an unofficial visit to the University of Cincinnati on Saturday and said he is leaning toward becoming a Bearcat. Fuller, who played last season at Modesto (Calif.) Junior College, said schools interested in him include Louisville, Saint Louis, Fresno State, Southern Cal, Illinois, Georgia and Georgia State. This season, Fuller will play for former UC assistant John Loyer at Wabash. Fuller said he averaged 13 points and 9.5 rebounds last season and would have been one of the top two junior-college players in California this year. When his junior-college coach, Mike Terpstra, left for a job at California State University Stanislaus, Fuller left. “I like Coach (Bob) Huggins,” Fuller said Saturday. - Cin Enquirer

9/19: "UC is also in the hunt for 6-9, 230-pound power forward Hiram Fuller of Wabash Valley College, where former UC assistant John Loyer is the coach. Fuller visited Louisville last weekend." - Cincy Post

9/15/00: "The guy many coaches considered the No. 1 big man among junior college sophomores — 6-9 Hiram Fuller of Wabash, Ill., College — is expected to sign with either Cincinnati or Iowa State.

Fuller is originally from Tacoma, Wash., but played as a freshman at Modesto Community College in Central California." - FoxSports, Burlison

8/9/00: "Hiram Fuller, a 6-9, 230 pound power forward/center from Tacoma, Wash., has transferred from Modesto J.C. in California to Wabash Valley J.C. in Illinois. Fuller played with Wabash Valley recently at Rick Ball's J.C. Showcase in Indiana. Fuller said new schools are now trying to get involved with him this summer after playing at the JC event in Indiana. Some of the new schools trying to get involved are Kansas State, Wichita State, Georgia State, Colorado, East Carolina, Alabama and Florida State. Fuller said he is also still considering the schools that were previously involved with him, including Fresno State, St. Louis, Southern California, UNLV, Nevada, New Mexico State, Washington State and Oregon. Fuller added that he is still open on schools and not close to making a decision. He is leaning toward signing late and won't start to consider making visits until he arrives at Wabash Valley later this month. Fuller said he has a 2.35 GPA and has already earned 24 credits toward graduation." - Juco Junction

6/8: "..just wrapped up his freshman year at Modesto J.C. in California, is seriously mulling a transfer to another JUCO. Fuller had a productive freshman season at Modesto, but Pirate Head Coach Mike Terpstra recently left the school to take the reins at Cal State Stanislaus. "Even if they named a new coach at Modesto, I just don't want to go through that," Fuller said. "If Terp would have stayed, I would have stayed, but since he left, I might as well go somewhere else." Fuller said he is being recruited to various degrees this spring by UNLV, Nevada, Washington State, Oregon, UCLA, Southern California, New Mexico State and Fresno State. But before he worries about a four-year school, Fuller must pick a two-year program where he can complete his associates degree requirements. Toward that end, he said he has had contact with Salt Lake C.C. and Dixie J.C., both of which are located in Utah. "I can go anywhere," responded Fuller, when asked if he were going to stay on the West Coast for his next JUCO." - Juco Junction

Wabash Valley was coached by former UC Asst coach John Loyer in 99-00. Wabash Valley Juco is in 'Region 24'.
