I just figured I'd start this thread rather than us tacking
things onto the end of the Campbell game.
Goods to the portal. Sigh.
I do not have Nahar or Onyekonwu here, even though I think each
has eligibility left.

Just a question: If Toby and Leon had eligibility left, would
they have honored on Senior Day?
Also, what's your prediction re: Shoshkikj returning?

goods to the portal is good. lets be reasonable here he was
exciting at times with his dunks and three point shooting. but
defensively he was not amusing what so ever. constantly getting
our rebounded on both sides the field. he had some stock going
into our 4 game final stretch which he completely exhausted
based on his game. also never had a killer instinct, always
played so passively as if he didnt care. also i heard his
relationship with geno wasnt the best. lets hope geno can bring
in some good bigs for next year.

I’d be thrilled if everyone came back. Lots of good guards and
wings. Need to somehow recruit 60 minutes a game of inside
presence. Defense and scoring in the paint. Everything the team
lacked this year.

Shosh vs. O'Connor.....pick one; doubt we can afford both. The
rest of the list I agree with. Need another Pratt and need a
couple of bigs to start. Early close to portal will tell us a
lot.

No doubt you're right about Shosh and O'Connor. I would think,
too, after the numerous huge games Shosh had he'll be looking to
take his craft beyond SBU and the CAA if possible.
But it's intriguing to think of those two,
all-conference-caliber players, potentially together. Too much
of the same player or could they find a way to work together?
Those two would immediately help with a few problems like
backcourt scoring and ball handling.
And, yes, I'd say we all agree that SBU needs a re-tooled and
bulky front line to compete in the top portion of the CAA.
