Was his grandfather who just passed away a Siena player in the 50's ? Everything I've read talks about him being a three sport star but was very well known for his coaching at St. Mary's. And his officiating. His son, Joe Jr. is the more famous scoring star. And Joe Jr.'s son, the freshman, is following in his foot steps. The middle-aged father, (Jr.), played at Lemoyne. Fredette was the new Gerard back in Jimmer's H.S.. career.

I asked him that question at HVCC on Sat.. He said his grandfather or granduncle didn't play for Siena in the 50's. The last name might be spelled differently.

Not necessarily a Siena target, but Chris Herren Jr. (Portsmouth, RI) is a very interesting prospect. He is a 6' 2" sophomore guard and leads R.I. in scoring average. Apparently not the same caliber of athlete as his father, but a dead on shooter. His father, Chris Herren, starred at Fresno State and played for the Nuggets and Celtics before washing out of the league due to his well documented heroine addiction (ESPN 30 FOR 30). Chris Sr. is now a motivational speaker who tours the country sharing his story. wpri.com/2016/02/16/hometown-hero-chris-herren-jr/

Have you read "The Last Shot" by Darcy Frey? A similar book focusing on a team in Coney Island. Cameos by an eighth grade Stephon Marbury.

As we continue to pursue 2018 recruit Jake Forrester, I'll be looking for some great "Finding Forrester" references. I'll start with my favorite: www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPjvDE-rKo0

Verbal commits has TJ Smith 6'7" SG/SF out of Illinois as offered. He is reclassifying to 2018 and prepping in Kentucky at Wesley Christian. Web has interview with him (google it) he sounds like he has his priorities in order. Doesn't mention Siena, but the interview seems to predate the offer.
