I'll just ask why he's at JUCO. I could consider him, if I knew his history. Could be fine, but I said it before..it wasn't very long ago we had a chemistry issue. Just the kind of thinking we don't need, not every Juco player is a problem carefully selected risk can be mitigated. Not every Juco player is a problem, but Iona wants him so...

I will say something that i'm sure some folks around here won't like to hear. I would take a look at a JUCO that Iona is bringing in for a visit, Tyrell Bellot-Green. He's a 6-7 SF who is originally from Mississauga, ON a suburb of Toronto, much like our newest commit Smithen who is from Ajax,ON another Toronto suburb. Bellot-Green played this past year at Hill College down in Texas. Back in HS he spent some time at St. Benedicts in NJ. Saw on twitter he hit 96 3's this season at a 50% clip. If there is one thing Cluess knows it is athletic wings who can shoot from the perimeter which is exactly what we need. I'll just ask why he's at JUCO. I could consider him, if I knew his history. Could be fine, but I said it before..it wasn't very long ago we had a chemistry issue.

Green is a good kid. Just had a hard time the pass year as the person who was the driving force behind him his dad passed away suddenly last year. The kid plays hungry all the time. Was also on the Canadian under 17 team a few years back

Sounds like Siena would be a great school for him! Unlike Iona, and their scumbag basketball program!

I'm guessing they'll save it and have 3 for 2016 class, possibly 4 when/if Bisping leaves

Only kid I'd take right now is a Juco.....Another freshman is waste of a scholarship. All comes down to Jimmy convincing the school to allow him to take one like they let Fran.

Cam should get it unless they can land an impact transfer that can play right away

I'm not convinced the whole "need permission to take a JUCO" thing isn't dopey message board rhetoric. Siena as an institution accepts plenty of transfers from community colleges. They actually run a program in conjunction with HVCC to guarantee admission to Siena upon completing your associates. www.siena.edu/admissions/information-just-for-you/transfer-students/transfer-admission-guarantee-tag-program/The Siena baseball team currently has 2 kids on the team from JUCO's including Justin Esquerra, the best hitter on the team right now. I know they've had others over the years. If a kid has decent grades at a JUCO and the staff wants him they shouldn't need to beg to admit him.

No way, Patsos will take a beating If that's the case If you can't find a good fit now, help the kid out paying for one year for him (as long as he understands) and plan on balancing things out further next year. Providing he understands it's a one year 'ship. A little good will never hurt anyone, again, if a no-brainer player doesn't become available. I agree except that they would then lose out on the possibility of grabbing a midseason transfer.

Cam Gottfried is not getting a ship .and agree if Jimmy wants a Juco and kid has good grades he can get one--I'm not buying he cant get one

Cam can afford Siena......Dad makes at least $2 mil a year. I'd rather give it to Wilson.
