Looks like the list of players we have contacted that are still available has contracted. Beagle, Spillers and Alexis all found homes. Best case for Frank's good news*2= 1. We land an attractive big and 2. Matt can't resist and comes back. Wouldn't mind Ajogbor and Gray as replacements to Cross and ...

If we can't lure him back, I hope he goes to Arkansas and Cal. Prefer he not go to UConn nor BC nor Providence. He was the heart of this team. This hurts but can't fault him. To me he's a top five 21st Century Minuteman. I remember when we were worried he might be a problem child as he had transferr...

Thanks. Not sure why I thought it was 3 with Ron and 1 with Cal, had it reversed in my head somehow.

We still have some good bigs on the list of contacted portal players, like Ajogbor (spelling?).

Venning, I believe, has two years less. He'll come here after BCC

Pretty sure Tate started under Ron but played in Cal's first year.

Steve max-agree with your thinking rather than the post, let it take Gapare In a heartbeat. Potential doesn’t win games! Show me a team that has a starting lineup full of potentials I’ll show you a losing team. So what if Gapare can Jump up high in dunk the ball. OK!Jayden Has basketball smarts…so ...

Jackson Cronin in the portal...

If we get Matt back, will we have any NIL money left over? Hoping there is some Cohen cash for another big. I see Beagle went to I'm expecting big gets to be guys who didn't play much in power conference like Rahsool two years ago. So much can change, and so fast. I see we have contacted some really...

I bet Bill Clinton is happy. Didn't he come to see one of our games vs AK when Cal was here?

Good point. I'm sure they will try to get a couple MAC teams to play in Hockey to gain awareness of those schools and feed the MAC movement. Not sure if it is worth the travel costs but MAC hockey opponents are more likely.

Yes, good dude. Tenure was Gurlufsonian to Lappassian for sure.

Probably will HC again in the future. Not sure we were ever a good match for MM.

I wish him luck. Just not against us.

He doesn't want to be contacted, I read on X. I assume that means he knows where he is going already.

Nope

Looks pretty obvious to my eyes that we need to get another big in the portal. Mason and Majok barely got their feet wet last season. Time for another rent-a-center for a year while Mason develops.

That's very interesting. Starting to sound like a real possibility.

How do you think it will work out, especially for UMass?
