Does WB sitting on the bench while Fisher plays not qualify as running someone out... Absolutely not. He's saying Fisher does more in practice to merit the few minutes available at that position. He's there everyday, we aren't. Neither one has done much in their opportunities, thats obvious. I'm not sure either is the answer next year. IF Sammy loses 30 lbs, like Fisher did this past summer, I do think he has some potential as a rebounder. Iona starts 4 guards. Thats a tough match-up for our bigs, and we play 3 legit ones. You're usually going to get 8 real contributors by a seasons end. That usually leave 4 kids out on the cold. Some fight, work hard and try to get the minutes of the guys that are graduating, and some leave for what they think are greener pastures. Hey, I like WB over Fisher too, but he's stuck on EF for some reason. He likes that the kid talks on the floor. That he cares. European kids aren't usually very fiery and our guy looks for that I'm guessing?

I'm hopeful once we get Richards back that Jimmy goes with his top 8 - which would be 4 seniors plus Nico-Shivers- Richards and Smithin.. which would only leave spot min for EF

There are many ways to 'run off' a recruiting error. You want specifics on two that I know of first hand (one was not JPs) PM me.

The best results from the Nico suspension are that Shivers and Richards have been developing, which is important for the future of this program. I hope Richards is alright.

It's Richard, not Richards. Hopefully he'll play more soon so we learn how to spell his name.

It's a couple days late but my thought was with Siena leading with a 1 point lead against Iona and knowing the Gaels were going to foul I would have immediately inserted Kadeem(our best ft shooter) in and gotten him the in bounds pass. I have faith he would have hit both foul shots and a last ditch Iona 3 prayer would have tied the game and not resulting in a Gael victory. It's that type of game planning I feel Jimmy lacks in. Just my opinion.
