Another year, another major roster turnover. People will do it anyways, but it's pointless to try and predict how good we will or will not be.

Just go into the season with an open mind and lets see how it plays out.

Everyone loves some good ole Bo Ryan-style basketball!

Def keep it regional if you can. Anything east of the Hudson is essentially New England so that gives you more than enough teams to choose from and provide their fans a drivable game.

Jayden only loses minutes if he gets hurt or if he regresses. He was the 2nd most consistent all-around player last year after Cross. He's going to play, and he's going to play a lot.

What a terrible time for you to retire from the Signs! LOL

Haven't really followed the CAA since we left but their recent additions were: Campbell, NC A&T, Hampton, Monmouth, and Bryant who is joining next year. I can see why Richmond wanted out of that. Glad we're no longer a part of that mess. Yeah, but don't you miss the days of seeing Steve Baylark...

Getting them to play and develop here will lead to them going to other programs and I think that is what a coach actually is paid to do

I could see Missouri being moved, but not cancelled. Doubt UMass would want to drop the buy-game from Iowa.

What towns in the Amherst area would you recommend looking into? I've lived in Colorado for the past 20 years and have pretty much done almost all of the adventures to be had here. My parents live on Cape Cod and are aging. My wife and I both work remotely and can live anywhere. I'm thinking that g...

Please be sure to include my Avatar... I like promoting Stevie's album!

24/7 has us #3 Recruiting Class coming in. - https://247sports.com/season/2024-baske ... rence=A-10


I think we were #1 at one point.

The perspective on that probably depends on how much one believes Diggins, Curry and Ndjigue are going to develop in that department.


I trust Frank has it sorted out, so I'm just here waiting to see what pieces come in.

Make decisions? No, or at least probably not. Provide suggestions/guidance regarding the program that Coach runs? Yep.

Look at 69MG pulling the UMass Basketball puppet strings! Well done. :wink: When you retire, you'll have more time to spend doing semi-useless things like scanning the portal for potential prospects. Every now and then you hit one. I did see Frank posted 3 sets of eyes, so maybe 1 more to drop this...
