NYG, 4 more starter quality players would be great from our perspective. But, I don’t think 4 more would come here as it would be too crowded for PT. Plus, not sure we can even afford them. Also, yes it is too late for one of the core starters we have now to enter the portal since it’s closed but b...

Jeff Goodman @GoodmanHoops I miss the days when a terrific recruiter was so valuable in college sports. Now it doesn't really matter. You can be a terrific recruiter, but if you don't have any NIL, you aren't getting players. And you can be a shitty recruiter, but if you have NIL you'll still be ab...

We are going to be about a .500 team in conference and maybe slightly above that overall. As of now, my take anyway. Again, not good enough. I still hope we get another impact transfer which could improve that prediction. Bone, we have 4 openings left ? My wish list for 2 of the final 4 spots that ...

I nominate NYG for the position as GM/KB liaison. Not sure if NYG is bringing any players with him, to answer your question, 104, unless he brings a few from KB. Anyone here have any eligibility left ? I do. I can still shoot. I just can't run or jump anymore. Is that good enough? What do you think...
