I know that it's just a crystal ball but, at least it's something to start the conversation.

It's Mike Traini's prediction. He'll be the first to say it's an educated guess and not a lock. Personally, I hope we get him and this is why. When he goes all out he has a lot to offer. Frank has mentioned that motivation is the issue but I hope he's willing to work with him again.

This may be a little premature since we haven't heard confirmation from Leveque, but if he chooses to come here after what Martin had to say about him in March, says a lot.

I agree, 100%.

Will be a positive indicator of respect for Martin and the maturity of Wildens (and Woodley).

He must believe in 5hem and himself to want a second chance to get them to their full potential.

Regarding those comments do we want a ton of South Carolina big men?

^ I don't know there's a guy from SC in the portal I wouldn't want. They finished better in the SEC than UMass did in the A10, playing against Ark, Auburn, Ala, Kentucky, Tenn -- all top 15 teams this past season.

I'd take Wildens Leveque to UMass in a heartbeat, absolutely.

Oh, I'd definitely take them!! Lot of talent and experience playing in SEC will benefit them.

I think both would gain a lot of confidence here and get to really find their strengths. Woodley has 3 more years, I think, and 2 for Wildens.

I want it to happen, but since theres been nothing so far and he has a long list.. I'd be surprised it happens.

Being from Brockton, besides Martin, it might be a draw so family can see him more easily. I'd love to see him at UMass!

Wow, we haven't heard a coach talk like that in a long time. There will be no coddling of players at UMass for the foreseeable future.

We can do more than hope, I think. Fill up his Twitter with "WE WANT WILDENS!!! #GOUMASS!" :D
