Let's hope he doesn't cry like Louis Orr. ;-) He almost did. If he had made eye contact with his wife during the “Full Swing” story, he would have. Loved the emotion, shows he has passion for what he does and the people around him. Carm almost had nothing, never showed anything liek thaat. I love it.

I guess we know now who Wyland’s source was when he tweeted that Siena was finalizing a deal with McNamara back on 3/25. Does anyone who took shots at Rodger for that tweet care to apologize? It wasn’t 100% done at that point and if conditions weren’t met/agreed upon then he would have been wrong. BTW, who was the source? Wasn’t GMAC.

GMAC was great. You can see he is a winner and is passionate and intense. I just wish we could’ve got some questions—— are we going to see the SU 2-3 zone some, do you want to play uptempo, scheduling, type of player, recruiting, assistant coaches etc Hopefully we’ll get those answers very soon. His staff isn’t even fully in place, & he has less than a skeleton roster. I doubt he’s anywhere near ready to discuss style. Personally I hope he saves the slogans for ad copy and tee shirts. Didn’t he say he closely mirrors Hopkins (Style wise in addition to how he relates with players/people)?

Carm almost had nothing, never showed anything liek thaat. I love it. I mean the time Carm grabbed the mic after our last home game and emphatically thanked the fans was definitely something like that lol. But recently, sure.

Apologize for what? Wyland should apologize!

Didn’t he say he closely mirrors Hopkins (Style wise in addition to how he relates with players/people)? Hopkins coached under JB, as did Gmaac, he didn’t spend anytime with Hop at Washington. That’s a big stretch. He was talking more about people who influenced his life. I think it spoke more to who he is rather than strategy. He mentioned his family, grade school & HS coaches, JB and Hop as all having had an impact. This had nothing to do with style of play or strategy and everything to do with character.

In addition to Ojo and Smith, Mosi Clayton attended. Also saw Andy Farrell and Jonathan Pickett.

Well if he likes golf, there are nice homes on the Schuyler Meadows golf course adjacent to the Siena campus. He could walk to work and play the course. I caddied there as a kid. Nice course and "exclusive" club. I'm sure they would offer him a membership although I think Wolfer's Roost has more Siena alum members. I'm sure Boeheim could host him at Saratoga National when he is in town for the Saratoga meet.
