I hate all this baiting. If you're going to say things like "more transfers to come", put a name to it. There's one "marginal" guy left that never played. Figure it out. I know he's talking about Cam. It's just these rumors never seem to have a name to them when people bring them up. Look on the MAAC board, were being linked to "2 game changing transfers who are a package deal". People say these things but won't give a name. I just don't understand why.

Regardless, good luck to Kinnon.

Melva was correct & saw this (or was afraid this was) coming; told me at the MAAC tourney but I wouldn't listen.
While I prefer players staying and things working out, I support his decision and wish him well. I too thought he'd receive more playing time next season and definitely consider him as asset.

I assume you mean he predicted that specifically LaRose would leave. I don’t know the significance of his prescience; esp whether it comes with personal connection or not. But the fact that he has not said anything complimentary in his cryptic posts but only sees the worst, I am not too surprised Melva would pick somebody to leave. Again, what is the implication? HJ, whom I do believe has personal connections, has come out and said in detail how this played out.

Now, that is disappointing. Best of luck to Kinnon. I was also looking forward to next year hoping for player growth and more PT for Kinnon. You can't blame kids for wanting more time on the floor. I would think and hope that this was a surprise to our staff. I don't think anyone can "blame" JP for this transfer. Very rarely can you make everyone happy particularly freshmen.

Odd that on the same day you post that the HJ hint refered to Kenny and then claim that Kinnon's departure is no surprise. I'm not afraid to admit I was surprised but then I shouldn't have been (rant coming, rant coming) as nothing this HC does surprises me anymore. Wow! So many surprises or not!! So, is it 'no surprise' or is it a surprise (that you are not afraid to admit) but that you're not surprised at anymore? I might engage the FBI to decode all this. But I will flat out ask what you think 'this HC' did this weekend that that didn't surprise you. [/quote How about yanking this kid out for the slightest freshman error while letting others play through them or letting upper class men throw the ball into the stands? How about the kids knocking down 2 threes in a few minutes in the first half and being nailed to the bench the entire second half? Nope, not the US weekend, the whole freaking season. Kinnon will be fine, it's very much a Siena basketball family loss IMHO.

Quality kid. Hate to see a kid go, especially a local kid. Maybe he can transfer to BU for the summer and then come back to play better than ever. It has happened before. ;-)

It has happened before. ;-) I wouldn't call Ogdensburg "local," but..... And for the negatives, this was Kinnons choice, 100%. He could have stayed and competed for available p/t, but he chose not to.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Kinnon end up in the AE (but then unlike those who knew what they knew, I didn't have a clue that it would be "Professor Patsos, with no playing time, in the TU" that would cause Kinnon to be "run off"). Perhaps we can work a trade with Maine where we get Vann and they get Kinnon plus the "player to be named later" in a no cash deal.

I'm not afraid to admit I was surprised but then I shouldn't have been (rant coming, rant coming) as nothing this HC does surprises me anymore. I let him run with it. Betting Heurter gets Kinnons scholarship. Kinnon shocked the staff with his intention on leaving. They really saw him as a viable replacement for Oliver next year. He wasn't up for the challenge. Had a lot of hard work in front of him this summer in order to earn 15-20 min a night. D-2 should be next stop, but there's alot of D-3's near home that he could be the "man" at. Growing up in a one light town didn't help him in this case. Great kid, good student, liked by everyone. Hope he lands at a place where he can be successful. Now the Imoh s head is out from under the ax and Kinnon takes his place. SMH Good luck to both young men. go saints : /

How DARE you or anyone else here say that this kid wasn't up to the challenge and imply that he ran away with his tail between his legs. Many of you couldn't give two shits if any of these kids are up to the challenge of going to class or writing a paper but oh we're OK with all of that. If the staff, especially the HC was shocked then he was too busy listening to his own pompous posturing rather then to the body language of the kids under his masterful 'tutelage'. His is the kind that rewards student athletes that can't get themselves out of bed to make practice or the bus on time, or who step on the court 'not in the mood to play' like Sam Schizophrenia. This is the post of an arrogant ass and is totally WRONG about the this kid. He was raised with integrity and character, he expected the same from this program. You're right about one thing, he is a great kid and a good student (not that we care about that) and everyone on campus likes him. He will land at a place that will be much better for him; we used to be that place.

For it is true I'm surprised the staff was shocked. I posted right after the cbi that kinnon a minutes were way down in the last five or six games of the season. Then with hoop junkies posts I figured that was the plan. If it wasn't the plan then it was a poor job of not utilizing him down the stretch. That, I am not surprised about.
