If Carm lands Woods- I'd be surprised. Woods wants a P5 team. If anyone can do it, it's probably Carm, but it's an extreme long shot Georgia Tech is a likely P5 lAnding spot and he would get to play in Syracuse in ACC play. Other than that most of the past interest was A-10 including GW, but it still wouldn't hurt to get involved. I hope he stays away from GTech, Pastner is under fire for both poor results and allegations of recruiting improprieties.

His most recent offers before committing were Nevada, Siena, Buffalo, UNCG, Charlotte, and Nebraska. Will be interested to see what pool of schools he has to choose from this go round.

how much you bet he winds up at GW He’s probably a long shot but I think Siena has a better shot than GW. Don’t expect Jim Hart to help 17. Why? JC leaving got Carm a HC gig years before he would have gotten one anywhere else. Devlin is also a City Rocks coach so that relationship wont go away. Woods wont consider Siena. He wants as high as he can get. Some kids think like that.

Have to like Siena’s chances of getting to Big Dance over GW ... that would be the tiebreaker going head-to-head

So HJ, you don't think that Woods is good enough to start here? Can't Don play the 3 at least part of the time?

Carey at 6 5 could definitely move to the 3, the wing isn’t much different than a SG especially in today’s motion offenses. Essentially you’re starting 3 guards. A starting lineup of Pickett Woods and Carey would be killer, I’m just not sure of his interest.
Surely doesn’t hurt to make the effort to reach out. I’m guessing with Woods Siena’s chances of a NCAA appearance exceeds that of GW’s.

A Pickett/M.A.W./Carey backcourt would put opponent defenses entirely on their heels because all three can make plays from all 3 levels. It's one thing if a guy is a 3 point threat or a driving threat or can hit the midrange or can create for others....but 3 guys being able to do all these things...that greatly changes things.
They would be incredibly difficult for the MAAC to defend. You wouldn't even need Seymour for his shooting. You'd have 3 great all-around scorers who can create and then Burns. All you'd need is a dude to get rebounds, defend, and not throw the ball away. Any of those 3 guys could always just create and make a shot for themselves at any time. It wouldn't matter much what teams did or who else was on the floor with them.
You'd have potentially 3 of the top 5 or 6 MAAC PGs all in the same backcourt at the same time. It'd almost be like Pickett playing with 2 giant Marquis Wrights. At that point, # of possessions might also matter less because they could be scoring so efficiently.
Adding a potential 40% 3 pt shooting PG to this mix would be a game changer. It could have been the similar if we knew how good Walker could shoot, but MAW has more statistical history backing him up.

It could have been the similar if we knew how good Walker could shoot, but MAW has more statistical history backing him up. Seymour having seemingly infinite range and the ability to shoot over defenders would be the exact guy you want at the 4 with those 3. He would be nuclearized at that point able to drop bombs from anywhere if his defender tried to help. You put Camper at the 4 with those 3 and his defender just "camps" out in the lane and disrupts everything.

I doubt it. 2 or 3 of those guys probably need to be double covered to keep them from going off. They'll be too busy chasing them around. I'd rather go with the guy who would get us the 2nd chance points and play good defense. Camper has a higher +/- for a reason. Now Sutherland.....that's a different story. He'd be the ideal mix.

So HJ, you don't think that Woods is good enough to start here? Can't Don play the 3 at least part of the time? I thought ARod was a better SS than Jeter, but only one can play there. Mika would be one of the top 3/4 kids on our roster. Will Carm start 3 guards? No idea. But I do think JC would give him the ball Day one to be his Pickett. So I do think he’s too good to be the “other PG” on a MAAC team. I’ve been clamoring for a 3 guard system forever. The team we need to beat starts FOUR. Hopefully we change our philosophy, and we can convince a quality guard to join sophomores Jalen and Don. I just don’t think it’s Mika.

He'd be crazy not to, just hoping what HJ is saying isn't true cause if he wants to go to the biggest conference possible then there is nothing we can do. Depends. Look at Pickett national attention/awards, NBA scouts, countless positive articles etc..... can you sell that big fish small pond angle to a player like Woods. We certainly have the playing time and a starting position to offer and 6k in the stands.. Not to mention Siena’s path to the NCAA’s with the addition of Woods is going to be higher than that of GW. Also the CR connection, don’t discount it....utilize everything you have in your arsenal to sell Siena.
