Let’s make it a package deal and bring Steve back to Siena as a coach ... has 16 more years to work in his son’s dribbling and passing skills Tony, is it too early to start and pin the 2038 recruiting thread? 🙂

Tony, is it too early to start and pin the 2038 recruiting thread? 🙂 He’s likely to be a 5-6 pg I can live w/5-6 especially if he’s anything like a Marc Brown, Kee-Kee Clark or Justin Robinson.

I’ve mentioned that I have heard we’ll be in on some midyear transfers. One worth watching is Dana Tate, who just left URI. Big, physical combo forward who played a lot of minutes for them as a freshman and was in the rotation before leaving the team this month. Former high 3-star recruit. Fits us regionally, stylistically, and we’re probably the right level for him to come down to. Carm liked the announcement that he is leaving on Twitter. Some highlights:

Some highlights: I’ve always been confused about mid-year transfers. I assume he can’t play until NEXT Jan. Soph this year, so does that mean only 2 years elig left or does he still get 2.5. Only 2 years would mean he’s finished after first semester his senior year. I’m sure every situation could be different, but what’s normal in a case like this?

Some highlights: I’ve always been confused about mid-year transfers. I assume he can’t play until NEXT Jan. Soph this year, so does that mean only 2 years elig left or does he still get 2.5. Only 2 years would mean he’s finished after first semester his senior year. I’m sure every situation could be different, but what’s normal in a case like this? Just like with a regular transfer, the player has to sit for 2 semesters without a waiver (midyear guys have often gotten waivers to play immediately in the fall in recent years). The player is eligible as soon as finals end in December (so around December 15th. Each year the player plays in counts as a full season. So, here’s how it would break down: 2018-19: Freshman year (played full season) 2019-20: sophomore year (play about 10 games) 2020-21: junior year (play about 20 games) 2021-22: senior year (play full season) Basically, by being a midyear guy, you lose about 30 games without getting that waiver to play immediately. But for teams, it’s pretty convenient because you don’t feel like you are wasting a year of scholarship on a kid who can’t play. The scholarship you have in January was always going to be unused if you didn’t take a midyear kid, and the kid plays the next season. Players also can elect to sit the extra semester because you get 5 years to play 4 seasons. Semi Ojeleye did it at SMU, Jalen Harris did it at Nevada. So here’s how that map looks: 2018-19: freshman year (played full season) 2019-20: sophomore year (played about 10 games) 2020-21: REDSHIRT FULL SEASON 2021-22: junior season (play full season) 2022-23: senior season (play full season) Hope this helps.

Question is do we risk having a player like Tate having to sit out 20/21 when we need immediate help next year with Burns departure?
That’s why I kind of favor the Juco route, someone like the Kirkland kid at FSW in the case of filling Burns spot on the roster.
Windows too short with Camper Pickett Carey. Load up now with a kid(s) that can hit the ground running.

Some highlights: If a guy is not a tough defensive center, or a Burns type, or a combo guard, he’s not a priority. What makes Burns so tough to replace is his FT rate combined with his FT %.

Multiple needs can be addressed with multiple scholarships. Having a guy who could play with Camper next year as a 3/4 combo or even in a small ball 4/5 lineup would be nice versatility. Kid is a starting caliber MAAC player. I’d take him if we can get him.

You said that he's a: "Big, physical combo forward who played a lot of minutes for them as a freshman and was in the rotation before leaving the team this month." I'm not pre-judging, and I have to believe that our staff and any other interested staff will be doing as much checking as they can, but given your description of his role at URI, don't you have to wonder why he would just leave.......two months into the season? I know that things happen, and things change, but to just walk away after a year and a half after seemingly being an important part of the program seems odd. Nico revisited?
