Funny but this is the first time we've seen or heard semi-officially that there is even a vacancy.

Deal sounds like it is done with Big Jeff but needs final approval from the higher ups. Hopefully Jimmy and Jeff have a stud up their sleeves with the last scholarship!

Ali got her vacancy filled quickly but winning greases a lot of kids If we really have any chance with a guy like Paschal Chukwu the sooner Ruland is announced the better. If he visits those BCS schools before Ruland can get him on campus you can pretty much forget any chance of signing him.

I went to the circus this year so why not Ruland I guess.

What's the benefit of bringing Ruland in? How's this help Jimmy? If it is to get a single recruit it doesn't seem worth it. Ruland had a decent run at Iona but was fired and ended in a bit of scandal. Additionally, I'm sure he still sees himself as a head guy and doesn't seem like the type to sit quietly on the bench if he disagrees with Jimmy. Seems like 2 "A-type" personalities. Then again, Chuckwu was starting to explode at the end of last year. He would destroy the MAAC. I'd love to see him in Green and Gold.

Siena hasn't had a Bigs coach since Fran took Andrew with him to Iowa. I'm not saying he's the best choice but I clearly see how more experienced he is compared to Luke (or who ever he's replacing). Getting any help in the recruiting end is only a potential bonus.

@marksingelais: Spoke today with @coachgkelly, who's leaving his post as Siena basketball director of operations. He's looking at coaching opportunities.

@marksingelais: Spoke today with @coachgkelly, who's leaving his post as Siena basketball director of operations. He's looking at coaching opportunities. Singelais is a little late on that one. Kelly has been gone for a long time (name off website since the season ended). DOBO only is a two year position anyway. Luke is still listed on the website but it's the worst kept secret that he is gone. Jimmy has talked only about Greg and Lucious in interviews and on facebook every coach in present in photos except for Luke. As far as Ruland goes he will bring a lot to the table (even if he doesn't land a big time recruit). Having another head coach (who had some good success at Iona) is always a good thing and as IndianSaint mentioned he will really help coach our big men up (Imoh, Brett, Evan, WB).

help with recruiting especially big men...help with coaching the bigs...help with pregame strategizing and in game adjustments...maybe help with moderating JP's occasional in game tirades...just help...no brainer as far as I can tell.
I thought his issues at Iona ended up being personal with the administration rather than basketball related. I could be very wrong but that was my impression.
