Why oh why i worked hard on that one ugh. It would have been much more fun to hear JP’s pitch than OI’s take. You think you can play JP in this one too rickyp? Come on, give it a shot!

So I'm on a recruiting visit and a game visit at that.1.the facilities great2.campus nice small 3.area around campus neighborhood very nice.4.Plenty of places to eat and stores right up the street catch the bus or walk.Or as they say accessible 5.Albany 10 minutes away good cool.6.Home games at the TUC good crowds 7.Very competitive OC schedule usually 2-3 power games ok great.8.trips to New York and educational and historic tours on away games 9.very good education degree You've sold me I'm game but here we go I'm one of these wing players.The one's we're heavy on i ask myself how do i fit in this offense.?Cause i like space to get up and down sell me coach. WHATEVER you do ... DON'T show game tape. You show a picture of the TUC from 10 years ago, full. With the players NOT on the court and you tell the player this is YOUR space. and then the player arrives on campus and transfers after a year or two thanks to the bait and switch.

Oh yeah, the star transfers.... were these guys vetted at all? or just because the staff was familiar with them and recruited them years earlier, were they automatic scholarships? neither has done anything and will have used 6 years of scholarships for 4 years of basically walk-on results. I don’t think Smithen falls into that category. Plus Degnan got 2 years for like 7 points. Hardly walk on results. 7 points isnt walk on results?

Time is running out for recruiting—another 6 weeks or so, once season ends Jimbo goes on vacation, with only occasional stops in his office for next 5 months. That’s why he pretty much ends up with kids with no other D1 offers—or as I like saying best of the leftovers

That’s why he pretty much ends up with kids with no other D1 offers—or as I like saying best of the leftovers Jimmy has shrugged off us internet fans at every turn and we've been basically critiquing all this stuff for 4 years. He even called us out publicly. But it's not like he's been able to prove many of them wrong. He's currently sitting at 75-83 at Siena and falling. And it could have all been avoided. He could have easily gotten away with lazy recruiting with better in game decisions. And he could have easily recruited better. He did neither and here we are. He underperformed 2 of 4 years with an experienced team. He took his offensively efficient senior laden, dominant rebounding MAAC team to a 17-17 finish. And now because of prior poor roster decisions he's left with an inexperienced group that just exposes more of his in game strategic deficiencies. I don't mind the kids on this roster. They have some skills. It's just they aren't studs right now and Jimmy doesn't seem to be able to play to their strengths. And, if these strengths and weaknesses seem clear to us, they have to be clear to opponents.
