That was a nice pr savvy release, minus the Rondo error.

Starting to wonder if Doh thinks Manuel can be a PG

Kinda reminds me of this years class.

Okay, now that we have the world's greatest recruiting class for next year let's get rid of Doherty and bring in a better coach so we don't waste this talent.

If we get the world's greatest recruiting class into school next year ( less than 50/50 odds) it appears that our biggest player will be our only center at 6' 8". The next excuse will be that we are too short to compete and too thin at center. You can see this one coming.

Pocono, cut the agenda crap. We are bring a ton of height into the program. Vilde/Smith/Cunningham are all sizable kids. Nyakundi comes back as well. We could use more, but we're far bigger next year, including on the wings and in the backcourt.

Also, we've never ever had american kids not qualify, so your 50% guess is wildly inaccurate. You telling me that Cunningham and Norman aren't qualifying for example?

IF Giles, Alexander, & Pats are eligible next season, the PG position will be ok.
The top priority for this program is to land a JUCO big. There are a ton of 6'8-6'10 types that can board & defend. Saw 2 of them yesterday playing for San Jacinto JC. I'm sure Gillispie already has a several in mind :D

I agree, a juco big would be fantastic. a bull in a china shop. So sick of being soft across the front line.

That means they would last 6 days longer than you would
