I don't really follow recruiting, but that sounds really good. If we can keep Jaylen Curry next year as we go to the MAC, that could be a really nice PG transition with him tutoring the incoming freshman. A 4-star Spanish speaking PG visiting on campus with Frank? Let's go.

Danny Carbuccia should be the focus of UMass Twitter right now.

You know who else is from Mali, our newest recruit, Doumbia. Nate's teammate is the real deal and would be an absolute steal if we could land him. It might come down to money because everyone will be after him.

Id say there is a good chance we get him. UMass is going to be top 25 team next year..

Has anything you have ever predicted here been correct?

Well, he was only slightly off on the legendary prediction of a 6-0 start with Missouri coming into McGuirk.

I am pretty sure we are supposed to be in the B1G this year too (or maybe that was next year)?

I mean I guess with the MAC we are in the suburbs of the B1G, but we are definitely not going to be on B1G main street.

He's listed as 2026, but I think he could reclass to 2025 so I'll put it here. He's been playing in Spain, but I don't know for how long. He'll be playing for Brewster Academy this year. We offered him in August and he recently took an official visit. Jason Smith is the Brewster Coach.
