Re: Desure Buie - Torn ACL, Meniscus

Amen to all the good wishes to Desure. If indeed Desure will get a redshirt, perhaps the mindset in recruiting is to look for an upperclass transfer be the priority for a point guard rather than a freshman. Btw is Jalen Ray a point guard or a two guard? I think Verbal Commits lists him as a two, but...

Former HU players and commits at the Gulf Coast event

Some familiar faces will be playing this week in the Gulf Coast Classic. Former HU player Darren Payen still plays for Vermont. Marquise Moore was a Mo Cassara recruit who was released from his HU commit when Mo was let go. He plays for George Mason. Jimmy Hall came from St. Anthony's high School wi...

Re: Game 3 - Manhattan

I know that Juan'ya Green was a special point guard. Last year his pick and roll with Gustys was a thing of beauty to watch. We have 2 point guards this season...Shouldn't working on the pick and roll in practice be a priority? If the offense does not start to click this will be a long season. I am ...

Was Jones an AAU teammate of Ray last summer on Team Loaded 757? I also like this Virginia pipeline that Coach Barrett is building.

Re: MBB recruits 2017

I wouldn't be surprised if Deron Powers influenced Ray's commitment.
I'm sure Ray saw a lot of Powers when he was at Hampton. He looks a bit like a clone of Powers too. I think he looks great!

Re: MBB recruits 2016

So if we are lucky enough to land Djambo, do you all see a redshirt for Trueheart? If Greer and Djambo get the major minutes it might not be a bad idea.

Could 2 Roks be better than one?
Rokas Ulvydas 6'11" redshirt sophomore from Texas Tech by way of Kaunus Lithuania wants to transfer. Might we be interested?

Re: Kory Holden Transferring!

This is the new normal in NCAA hoops. The transfer list is exploding. The CAA has lost very little next to many other non-CAA schools. Also the graduate transfer rule applied for both Lee and Barry. Hofstra has reaped the same reward with Nesmith, Koon and Zeke Upshaw. As for Holden, fire the coach ...

Re: MBB recruits 2016

Keep in mind he was seen in practice at Hofstra for a full redshirt year...if he was a non-entity I am confident they wouldn't be trying to make it happen again.

Re: MBB recruits 2016

If this is real ,how about Djambo for a year then add Jonathan Nwankwo (6'10") from VCU by way of NYC to redshirt for a year and the future looks bright!
Just wishin'!

Re: MBB recruits 2016

I don't think HU will ever have 13 active players. There will always be redshirts whether transfers or freshmen redshirts. 13 players is a waste since rotations tend to be short. I know the last few tears we have been ridiculously thin on the bench, but don't expect more than 11 active players at on...

Re: WRHU Sports

If you have more air time tonight, maybe reach out to a team member of the HU 2006 Championship finalist like Loren Stokes for some inspiration and encouragement. Time to avenge that 2006 loss to UNCW too!

Re: MBB recruits 2015

I remember seeing video about him when we recruited him in high school and he reminded me of Allen Iversen. I was surprised he didn't see more action at USC. By the time he sits out a year Juanya is gone and the point belongs to Buie and possibly Gonzalez. I'm sure the staff is not just bringing him...

Re: 2015 Pride Mens Lacrosse

Very impressive effort today to keep their CAA tourney hopes very much alive. Lots of scenarios at play including the chance of a five-way tie for first place at 3-2 so not sure we completely control our own destiny depending on tiebreaker scenarios. If you go to the CAA website Hofstra controls it...

Re: MBB recruits 2015

I think Cluess and co. are great recruiters despite their gym. I agree Jojo their style is appealing to incoming kids. They have had sustained success. Their team next year sounds like it will be really good and may not miss much despite losing Laury. Success breeds success in recruiting. On the oth...

William and Mary on the road and Drexel coming alive

William and Mary loses to Charleston on the road last night. They have previously lost to Delaware and Elon on the road. Those are the bottom 3 in the CAA. They have been awesome at home and awful on the road. Last night up a bunch in the first half but trailed the entire second half. They also blew...

You will have to pay for it but GoColumbialions has a video feed. You can buy a one day pass for $10.95 I think.
