Anyone feeling a little more comfortable that he is coming here, when a friend of the family starts the thread by saying "glad he is going somewhere where he can show his talent." I hope he is right, we could use his jolt of athleticism, and ability to attack with both hands. That and he's closer to home (granted Toronto area is not the easiest travel to Albany but still closer than VA). Maybe his friends & family might make more games than if he was still in Richmond. Buffalo and Olean are easy trips from Toronto! 2-3 games a year within an hour or two isn't bad

Buffalo and Olean are easy trips from Toronto! 2-3 games a year within an hour or two isn't bad I agree, but Siena's still a lot closer to his hometown (east of Toronto) than VA. Maybe they'd come to a few more home games (plus the Buffalo road games) than they would have if he stayed in VA.

Whether Kadeem ends up being good or not at least he, on paper, fits into what the team is trying to do style wise. That's a start.

I think the start was this year Nico and Kenny are athletic, and Fisher is more athletic than Brett-- all a giant step in right direction , Smithen just furthers the cause

Heard llast night that the visit is going well. Sounds like a commitment will be forthcoming (remember that Smithen cannot sign an NLI because he is a transfer).
No clue on the last scholarship. I have no sense that an immediately eligible transfer is on the radar. If not, the choices are signing another HS senior, taking a transfer with two years left (to avoid further class imbalance) or hold it for next season.
