Re: practice facility completed

recuits won't know the history - they will just see what is there now. For a mid-major, I think its pretty impressive. Combine that with the Mack arena, weight training rooms, etc, and its a nice package.

Re: MBB recruits 2015

So for this year we have 10 scholarship players. After this year we will lose Kone and Nesmith, who we know will alreay be replaced by Djambo and Justin WF. So we know that coach already has 10 solid players (+ any walkons) for next year. I only point this out because it underscores the coaches abil...

Re: MBB recruits 2015

Here is a portion of what I posted under "Midnight Madness" from the other night, but its also good for this thread. So I'm watching the guys shoot around in the practice facility and at the next basket over is a high school looking aged kid wearing sweats. he's shooting 19 - 21 footers an...

Re: MBB OOC Schedule 14-15

Based on what I saw at the court last night, I am very optomistic. Given the strength of our OOC schedule, I can see us piling up wins pretty regularly. And as Polito stated, some of hte bigger foes may be our only challenges. I think without going too far out on a limb, we can expect this to be a v...

Re: Midnight Madness

I also attended last night - Agree with all that has been said - Green, Nichols, Kone, Bernardi all impressed. But WOW, Gustys is a beast...shoulders about a yard wide.....pretty mobile to boot! i see alot of talent on the floor this year and barring any hickups, I could see us only losing a few gam...

Re: Media Thread

yes - and you are right on regarding Kone. I think he will serve as a good mentor to Walker and Gustys this year. There certainly is alot of flexibility in this years squad. Seems to me that substitutions made for starting 5 during games will not represent a drop off in talent/ability (except maybe ...

Re: Media Thread

`Agreed Cactus. But I must say, that after landing two nice bigs last year, and then getting Djambo for next year, JM has shown he can get the job done. I feel confident (of course only based on what i've observed to date) that JM knows about the front line depth and will come through with other nic...

Re: MBB recruits 2015

looks like a nice pick-up. Here is some tape of him in a game last January. I assume he is #13 (white jersey) He appearrs to be very athletic which is consistent with some of the other comments. Lefty shooter, good leaper (tape shows elbow to the rim dunk). Second video shows him in a dunking contes...

Re: Media Thread

Last year I simply walked into the Mack and watched practice one afternoon. not sure if that was a normal thing that could be done. Anyone know if practices can be viewed by anyone, and if yes, are practice times made public so we know when to show up? I agree Polito - one paper this team looks to b...

Re: MBB recruits 2015

three bigs are better than the two we had last year (I don't count Payen as a big). Your'e right though catus, another big JUCO would have been nice. Another big freshman I think would put to many bigs in the same class which might present some problems with playing time and/or all graduating at the...
