When Fantilli was asked why he preferred Columbus, he stated the following:

"It's close to home. It'll be a great fit. There's a lot of Michigan guys. It felt like it would be the right spot."

Columbus is also home to U of Michigan alumni and Team Canada alumni Kent Johnson.

Fantilli is still deciding whether he will return to Michigan next season or turn pro.
