Re: MBB recruits 2015

this PG spot is really intriguing... the recruiting between Buie and Carter really has my attention - tough to get a gauge after their visits IMO Buie trimmed his list to HU and MC as he didn't have the best summer so some programs may have slowed down pursuit if they really didn't need to take a gu...

Re: Midnight Madness

great feedback Cards, thanks VERY excited about Gustys, major 'get' - type of post presence HU has been after for years - looking forward to his impact during his HU career and J W-F I believe will prove to be a super player - will be following his Sr yr - looking for him to be a top 10 player on a ...

Re: practice facility completed

flat out 1st class - for a mid major, it's absolutely top notch, and IMO puts HU right on the forefront with ANY level of the tri-state programs

Re: MBB recruits 2015

Very good point Cards, very good point I think esp in the post where it takes greater effort to land quality non-project types, they are working diligently to find the right guys - a big yr that produces some attention would likely make an impact to recruiting, so perhaps they are biding their time ...

Re: MBB & WBB Media day - 10/16/14

All I know is the athletic department, at least for bball, is really moving and shaking - something we've NEVER seen to this level - normally we are faced with complete apathy or ineptness, or both - these folks are on it and appear to really be working to make things top notch - have to be happy wi...

Re: MBB OOC Schedule 14-15

Ooohhh juicy info, love it! Great teams to scrimmage - solid opponents, should help them get a good game feel before starting official season I'd love to see them knock off one of the bigger conf foes (NC State, USF, La Salle), but I think we all understand this comes down to the CAA and the tourney...

Re: Midnight Madness

Thanks for the reports back guys... Very excited to see Green's impact to the team/program next 2 yrs. I was big on Rokas from his recruiting, believe he's going to be a beast for HU in the post. And really interested in seeing Nichols - talent must be there considering he was desired by 2 separate ...

Re: MBB recruits 2016

Would be great if HU could do that, but I don't think he wants to go in that direction - from a twitter feed I read that he's going to decide between Hawaii and Long Beach St - not sure if that's 100% true, but the only thing I can find so far...

Re: MBB recruits 2015

Hofstra is listed on the 247 site with a couple of others with a 'Warm' notation... He's a tougher read because he is a top 100 recruit, had the injuries/surgeries, schools backed off a bit, he came back and had a strong showing, recruiting is picking back up again, but there's likely still a concer...

Re: Media Thread

and the swell builds...

guess we'll find out soon what kind of leadership this team has, both players and coaches - lot of anticipation, will take strong leaders to handle the new attention and stay focused and level-headed

critical time for this program IMO - and damn EXCITING! :P

Re: 2015 Pride Mens Lacrosse

tread lightly with scheduling 'excuses' - because that's really all they are - heard it from bball for yrs, it's COMPLETE BULL - no one is afraid to play HU, and there's PLENTY of reason TO play HU, ESP in lax in this market why isn't it happening? Ask the staff. There's no excuse why. JD produced K...

Re: MBB recruits 2016

Interesting that this looks to be another guard focused class thus far, not a whole lot going on just yet with bigs... Wonder what their game plan is for the post - I know they have one, not worried at all actually, just really curious! Are they moving under cover so to speak, looking JUCO, going fo...

Re: MBB recruits 2015

The longer it goes the more I like HU's chances - 247 now has a crystal ball for HU, the first, and the most recent one post-visits - all the MC ones were for before either visit... I know he's light, but he is very talented, a TRUE PG which can be harder to find - if he's on board with a developmen...

Re: 2015 Pride Mens Lacrosse

that's true as well, schedule has been relatively weak under ST and that makes the sub-par performances even less tolerable - HU was a legit top 10ish team my ENTIRE time at HU, playing AND beating some of the best teams in the nation EVERY YR I think I've made my point that this nonsense has to sto...

Re: 2015 Pride Mens Lacrosse

Thanks LaxPhan, sounds like you have better insight than I and I appreciate the feedback. Please, don't even get me started in the SJU loss - that's just a smack in the face to the school, the program, the players and coaches who've gone before, and basically to the whole daggone sport !!
