No that’s apparently Smithen and Degnan. Should be Shivers and Horn. Or maybe one of the "front row fans!" The team should NEVER be spilt genius

As many of you know, even though I haven't been around much in the last year or so my love of the Saints runs deep and has a long history. With this I have long standing connections throughout the community and within the school. So it is with confidence in the information and an heavy heart that I share this: First:JP has been threatening, intimidating and down right ugly to nearly a handful of our players. I do not care about coaches being hard on their players this goes W A Y beyond that. Second: This is what finally lead me to break my silence about what is happening within the program: The team has one charter flight scheduled for this season and JP with Darg's consent left two scholarship players off the charter and made them fly commercial. These two players had to fly commercial while admins and boosters flew on the charter. Just think about all the ways this is horribly horribly wrong! This wasn't a punishment for breaking rules, etc. it was punishment for not being liked by the coach. The coach and AD are an embarrassment and have to go! For anyone who doesn't believe me all you have to do ask around with any connections you have and unless there was a last minute change of heart you will find that what I have posted is true. With this pattern of poor adult leadership that is hurting us more than in the W/L columns I think a few more people may be coming forward in the coming weeks with nuggets that will bring greater clarity to this simple fact: no matter the cost at the end of this season JP and Darg have to go. Money is tight at the school right now but a strong hoop program generates revenue and more and better applicants. Stop the bleeding protect the Siena community get rid of these abominations of our community's Franciscan values. Enough is Enough WOW! What an embarrassment...Darg has been THE Problem for a very long time now. Just outright shameful. Really disappointing what has happened to the school I love.

How can anyone wonder, after reading nolesaint's comments, why this program is in the state it is and I don't think the problem stops with D'Argenio. I 'm guessing it goes much higher. If I was a recruit why would I want to go to Siena. Dam, I can't believe I'm saying this.

Crazy that Friday was able to get the opportunity to shine in a game like this considering the bomb I've heard JP dropped on Sammy about a week ago. This info isn't as solid as what I started this thread with but even more concerning. So needless to say I am happy for Sammy!

This is a non issue. Some teams don't have all players travel. The team ended up in the same location. No big deal unless you are looking for something.

It isn't about the travel to L'ville, Re-read Nolesaints last post.

Perhaps this is a reason Sammy may not have practice minutes that satisfy our NCAA Championship ring bearer giving said "coach" an excuse for not playing him. I watched two preseason intrasquad scrimmages and Sammy played exactly like he did vs the Cardinal. JP's reported beat downs may be designed to create a vacant scholarship slot.

In the vast majority of situations it would be inexcusable to chase off some of the better players and while continuing to play those of substandard ability (Fisher & Horn) but apparently not at Siena.
