Ohio isn’t RTW.
That alone would eliminate it if I was the guy making the call.
Well, Ohio isn’t Washington either. Nor is it California or the Northeast. Not having RTW isn’t an automatic disqualifier, even if it is likely to be a major factor.
Even at its worst, locating in SW Ohio wouldn’t be a bad thing. More than a few major defense contractors reside here (thanks to WPAFB) and adding Boeing for this kind of work in nearby Wilmington would only complement that effort.
Now if this was during Rhine McLin’s time in Dayton, then I’d definitely agree - she let 125 years of history go to Georgia. If that’s not a large wakeup call, I don’t know what is.
