Thanks for updates TheGreatK! Any word on how the coaching staff
is filling out? Can we start an campaign to bring you on or can
we not afford you?

2 steals on the transfer market in the AE can ensure your roster
never has a dip in talent. Never to be forgotten is what UMBC
was able to do mainly because they got their hands on the RIGHT
TYPE of A10 transfer.

Thank you for the update!
As I see it, we lost Yeboah/Moor/Long/Cornish and have we have
added Gueye/Stephenson-Moore, definitely a net minus, not in
terms of body count, but overall talent, and I certainly mean no
disrespect to the 2 new signees. Hard to replace a 17/8 guy,
who was your main stud.
I hope Tavin Pierre joins us, but i'd like to see us active in
the Transfer pool this year, to complement our core. We may be
dealing with Garcia leaving next year, if he has a solid year
upcoming.
Policelli would need to sit a year as well, no?

Hadn't thought about that. Maybe he ends up at Rutgers also.

@Sbufan fantastic sense of Humor 😂.
As for Policilli being eligible next season if he were to come
to Stony, I’m not sure if he has a reason for a waiver. I don’t
want to speculate. I don’t have that intel. This big kid from
Duquesne looks like a 2 time all conference 1st teamer if he
pulls the trigger. Stony would go from one AE
Unicorn(Defensively) in the middle to another
Unicorn(Offensively).
Pierre would be another good get and would be able to impact the
game as a Frosh in some capacity.
Yes Yeboah is a big loss and Moor isn’t a slouch either but I
think player development is being undervalued here.
We still return A Lion’s share of our production. Those guys
will be better. Remember how much better Cornish was from Junior
to Senior year. These guys have more talent than he did.
And Gueye is a still of the same caliber a Lattimer or Otchere
was. Direct quote from Big Jeff “He could be like Pascal Siakam
for us. He’s almost my size but makes 3’s off the dribble and
DHO’s.”
Not to mention Gueye also Protects the rim.
We can peg Foreman in for Double Digits In points. If Big Jeff
can play 30 minutes a game he simply walks into double figures
and keeps a lid on the rim for a longer period of time.
According to the staff he’s been great in workouts. We will
certainly be fine. Through improvement and additions there will
be no drop off.
Not sure how the staff is being filled out, I know Ford had
interest in a local HS/AAU coach but I believe that cooled down.
Would of been a good marriage for both parties in my opinion.

I believe that his only other offer was from Boston University.

It looks like Oklahoma State offered back when he was sophomore.
Seems his recruitment slowed down a bit since and doubt that was
still on the table.
I like him. Good size and skill. Looks a little stiff for lack
of a better word, but still gets above the rim with ease. I
think he could be a nice pieice.

and Coach Weber just tweeted this out "Fired up!!!! The
Seawolves JUST GOT BETTER!! Big time 24 hours....time to work!!"

I'm guessing they landed one of the two transfers.

All good, but still concerned about starting PG for this
upcoming season. Is Foreman making the transition over from SG?
If not, are we putting it in the hands of one of our 2 freshman
recruits?
