Re: Next Year's Team

is it me or on paper we could possibly have a better team? I think it's hard to say we're better when we don't have a single player on the roster who's ever averaged 10 pts or 3 ast in a season before, and the only guy who's ever averaged over 5 reb did so 2 yrs ago. But on paper we're certainly de...

Speaking of Northeastern, they also just added another player with a bit of a hofstra connection... Jacco Fritz's younger brother Youri, who also started his career at Canisius

Re: NCAA 2024 MBB Transfer Portal

In agreement feels like the 3 locks to start from the transfers would be Cruz Davis, Jaquan Sanders, and Gadsden, with one of Sunday/Graham obviously at the 5. So the real positional/philosophical battle then may come down to Aranguren at 6'3 190lbs vs German at 6'6 197lbs for the final starter. Ara...

Re: NCAA 2024 MBB Transfer Portal

So it appears we've gone in a different direction from Odum. Jaquan Sanders from Seton hall just committed. Didn't play much for them, but appears to be a good shooter. Solid size for a guard at 6'4 205. Seems like a good get!

Re: NCAA 2024 MBB Transfer Portal

So is Odum still coming? Thought all the buzz was he would get announced over the weekend.

Also know there had been some talk here about the Traore brothers.... Drissa (from st johns) just committed to Rhode Island

Re: NCAA 2024 MBB Transfer Portal

White leaving is massive news for the caa. But not gonna lie makes me pretty happy to see that even uncw can't afford to keep their best players. I wish it wasn't this way, but as long as it is just hope for Hofstra to be on a level playing field with the rest of the conference (besides Charleston o...

Re: Next Year's Team

Hearing it's another NY kid, a PG, who was on the all-freshman team in his conference, who will round out the roster. Looks like Speedy's plan is to go after transfers from NY who want to play near home then have the opportunity to follow an Estrada path. This sounds a lot like Moe Odum, who is sup...

Re: Next Year's Team

So Michael Graham isn't exactly the most exciting addition as a big, but if we're looking for sneaky upside I'd go back to him averaging 9.3 pts and 6.8 reb in 20 min a night starting every game for Elon in '21-'22 as a potential indicator of what we could be getting over his stats at LMU the last 2...

Amari Williams landed at Kentucky. CAA continues to be a major pipeline for the elite programs.

Dstone made it official, heading to Tennessee. Wish him the best of luck. The system sucks, but can't fault or begrudge him at all. Just have a different SEC team to keep up with this year

Re: NCAA 2024 MBB Transfer Portal

So obviously nice start for us with Cruz Davis, but if anyone thought Charleston was gonna take a step back with Chris Mack think again. Here's the 2 guys they landed today: - Derrin Boyd: SR guard from Lipscomb; averaged 17.6ppg, shot 44% from 3 and was 2nd team ASun - Lazar Djokovic: 6'10 Freshman...

Re: Next Year's Team

Per verbal commits - Cruz Davis committed to HU! PG or shooting guard? Love this! Verbal commits lists him as a PG, but think he profiles as more of a scorer than say Carlos did. Either way would expect him to start right away and be an impact player. Anyone know what his injury was this past seaso...

Re: Next Year's Team

Let's hope whatever the roster winds up looking like next season, it exceeds expectations more than this year's team did. Random proof - Hofstra apparently wound up as one of only 5 teams on KenPom to finish in the exact same spot he ranked them entering the season (113th) https://twitter.com/kenpom...
