To make matters worse, we're in the middle of a Dead Period for recruiting, and it'll be a Quiet Period until the end of July. That means very limited contact with recruits. All we can do at this point is hope JAM has a plan, a better plan than last year since we all learned that a short bench doesn't work at this level. https://www.ncaa.org/sites/default/file ... etball.pdf

Here's a new name...

Pat Lawless ‏@PatLawless_
Maine Transfer Devine Eke has been contacted by FDU, Rider, St. Peter's, Nevada, Hofstra and Buffalo.

Yep same concerns at this point - VERY late in the game and key guys off the board every day - really wish they would've worked harder to land another guy back in the fall - losing Ford was a big blow, and losing the other guys to other bigs kept the hurt going

Now seems staff is scrambling - love these guys and love who they landed with 2, but still gotta do a better job overall - there's no excuse for not having these ships filled with quality already

I have faith in their ability and their evaluations, but my big concern is that JM may not feel it's necessarily a pressing need to have another guy... And it is if this program really wants to go dancing

Hoping for great news soon

Not that we should expect a significant impact from him, but we should not forget that we do have the walk-on Ros (the French guy) 6'7". He currently does not show up on our depth chart in "verbal commits". He will certainly be an upgrade from some of the previous walk-ons we've had (ok course that's a pretty low bar!)

Skinny 6'7" forward that avg 9 ppg and 6 rpg - before going to Maine originally signed with FDU

Eke looks to be a decent get. Good height, athletic and only a freshman...giving us 3 years...Id take him.

Eke video coming out of high school. Looks like an inside leaper. Kinda reminds me a little of Malik Nichols

Would take this guy in a heartbeat. With JAM's great track record and experience with smaller school guys, this guy fits the mold of the 3/4 we're always in need of.

The Eke good..solid stats as freshman including 61.2 % fg %...if he can bulk up a bit and retain athleticism could do nice job at 4...

The Eke bad...6-7 195lbs at the 4...did not hit one 3 pointer all season and shot 36% from free throw line...does not appear to have any outside skills

Would definitely take him and see what he evolves into

36%. Holy shit. What is with these kids and their percentage from the stripe.

When someone is hitting that low a percentage then teach him to shoot underhanded. he cant be any worse than 36%.

Any news out there ??? I have not heard a thing...

I did notice that Antwan Walker looks to be headed to prep school for a year - so he is off the board.

Prep school in his Junior year?? Hope we make the right replacement (s)

Not Andre Walker!

According to Verbal Dylon Gregory selected another school

Sorry, my bad

Caleb and Cody Martin going to Nevada - A/P Goodman
