We didn't exactly "lose" a guy, considering that we don't have any open scholarships to commit. I guess our play would be to hope that he would wait for the late signing period and we'll see what the roster looks like at that time, but I wouldn't fault a guy for wanting to commit in the fall.

I would tend to agree with this. Who knows, LIU goes to NCAA again this year and coaches stock continues to rise; then he may get snatched up by another college. Next thing Hood might be looking to op-out. If it's between Hood and possibly Taplin coming in, I'd rather take Taplin (only because he's rated higher than Hood). I realize Taplin probably won 't select Siena (no scholarship & we already have a PG), but I'd still rather have him over Hood. So not really a loss in my mind.

We lost Hood to the BEST NEC team, so yes, it's no shame. As for recruiting in '14, we need to keep doing it. There will be at least 2 openings in May, count on it. The rebuilding has begun, and will continue with evaluations this season on who can, and can't, help us get to our goals. Don't see any current juniors leaving (I doubt Hopper leaves with one year to go). And I don't anticipate any of the current freshmen going anyplace. If anyone goes it will be either Oliver, Audu or Bisping - especially Oliver/Audu especially with Cole coming into the mix for the 2014-2015 at the latest. If Cole gets his waiver...don't see much playing time for Oliver or Audu at all. Let us know if you still feel that way after practice tomorrow.....Audu and Oliver were on white today with Poole and Hymes out....and white won everything including the sprints...no one will be leaving early

Everyone saw at the practice today Audu and Oliver will get minutes and are so engaged in the process that leaving is not something they are thinking about. Patsos gave them an opportunity and both are taking advantage of it

Games are way different than practice and winning is what we are paying Jimmy 300k to do so he needs to play the best players and we need 1-2 ships to open by the spring

And when you are a sophomore playing 5-6 minutes a game playing behind freshmen the writing is on the wall
