Did he grow? Or is he playing with a bunch of young boys?

I am very bullish on next year's class- I think it addresses a lot of our needs. Love the fact Wormley and Clareth are both excellent on the ball defenders. Not sure about LaRose and Wormley, but I know both Fisher and Clareth have a bit of swagger .. Don't want to put pressure on freshmen, but I really like the 4 kids we have lined up. Add those 4 to Imoh and Brett it basically gives 6 players who didn't play this year and a much needed talent upgrade

I too am excited about next year's freshmen. Don't want to put too much pressure on them but on paper it's the best class since the Fran days (Jimmy's first class was solid as well with Marquis, Lavon and keeping JO's commitment). Good news is with Wright, Long, Bisping and JO the team will be a junior laden team so none of the frosh have to be world beaters as youngsters. Though it would be nice if someone emerged to make a run at ROY.

Looks like he has a unique skill set for sure. Tough because he could catch it in the post easily and shoot over a lot smaller defenders. Has a nice touch around the basket and nice stroke from outside the paint. I think he may be 1-2 years away from having an impact, which may be okay given the way we have JO, bisping, Silas, brandwijk, and Long as big men. If he works hard he could be a match-up nightmare down the road. I like the signing and the overall class so far too.

The thing I kike about most of these recruits us that they regular okay with a d against D1 kids. Nico is one of at least 4 on his team and Evan has multiple. Seems like every opponent has a D1 kid too. Makes the kids more college ready

Love his ability to create space when playing guys his own size, his ability to control a rebound and jam it all in motion plus that his release is always at his high point and that he uses his body to shield it from the defense.  |

That last dunk was NICE. Liked those putbacks.
Interesting release on his shot, especially at close range. Not sure if that's problematic for him.

Good player. Has lot offense tools and a lot swagger to his game. He will have to be better defender at the college level and rebounder. He has the tools for sure. The question is there a log jam at his position next year. I believe he could get solid mins because he can score and handle the ball. Siena seems deep at 4/5 with Silas, Bidsping, Jo, WB, Long. Plus Fischer.

You really should stay out if this. Slim has a personal problem with me that he has already admitted. He followed me here after claiming he never visits team boards. Then it became that he only checks the PMs he gets on bmorehoops from Siena fans. The truth is he has been taking info back and forth from board to be to get back at me...he claims he won't eval Lavon yet he continues to give his opinion of his game. Doug Chappell plays for Fairfield and they have a board. I bet he never visits that one to see how his former player is doing. Slim was invited to the MAAC board which would make more since for him if he wants to talk MAAC hoops. But he won't go there or is already there hiding behind a screen name. He is a Hater I'm not interested in the MAAC board. I like this board. I have met some good people here, and they did PM asking me to give input and insight. I've followed Siena for years, and Adam Chaskin was one of the guys that really introduced me to Siena bball, MAAC bball. Siena basketball is not new to me.
But when did you stop feeling like this? I had the pleasure to Coach current Siena players Lavon Long and Mike Wolfe. They are both good players and good kids and should have great careers at Siena. I"m also very familiar with the MAAC leg and have kids currently playing in MAAC . Zaid Hearst(Quinnipac, having great year) Doug Chappell(Freshman at Fairfield). I have had kids recruited in the MAAC over the last 5 years, so I enjoy and follow the MAAC conf. I try to stay neutral and have relationship with most coaches in MAAC so college message boards are conflict, so I stay away, but since I heard my name was mention in negative light I wanted to respond.

I generally try not to make a comment after a game or someone else's comment that I do not agree with because really "I'TS NOT WORTH IT".I'm on this site because I am a SIENA FAN and interested in comments,opinions,recruiting news,Etc. whether they are positive or negative.Let's just not make it personalall the time.GO SAINTS!! Slim is all personal. Its why he is here and we all know MP is mad at me but at least he is a Siena fan. Slim admits he isn't and that he does not like me yet comes here everyday to start trouble. |

You see lol its personal with Slim. He is here to start trouble. I am going to let Bmore know that he has come out in the open with his stalking on the team board now.... This should be funny. Have fun. Nobody on this board or in Bmore do I have to answer to. I will post when/where I want. But you said this I had the pleasure to Coach current Siena players Lavon Long and Mike Wolfe.
