Hopefully he can improve the free throw shooting and build on the steals in the Mayhem defense.

Welcome Jalen! I am impressed that JC got a City Rocks kid in 1 week!

Wow like the ole days get a kid in on visit and sign him within a few days!! Welcome Jalen-- lets hope JC can re recruit Roman -- Not that impressive in May. In October? Absolutely. This was a kid that has been waiting on grades. I think he wanted to go to Siena for awhile now. He's a nice pick-up at this time of the recruiting game. Good start for our new coach.

Best thing I took away from that page was that he played WR in HS too. I like the toughness.

Hopefully he can improve the free throw shooting and build on the steals in the Mayhem defense. Yeah, but you can live with a 69% FT shooter if he does all the other things he seems like he does. Having that assist ratio and FG% for the 'Rocks is very impressive. 48 to 16...that's a 3 to 1 ratio. That's very good for that level of competition. And since it says 218 to 88 at Acquinas..it doesn't seem like a fluke. For a coach who relies on TO margin for victory, guys like this are vital. Since he was only playing about 16 to 17 mpg for the 'Rocks...he seems like he has the potential to be a 3 to 5 APG guy... If you played Penn, Smithen, and Pickett together...turnovers would probably be fairly rare. Although you might have to yell at them all to stop passing up shots.

That's all you can ask for. It COULD have gone the other way. He did what he could do in May less than 10 days after he was hired. I will take it.

"Does Jamion have to get kids with better than MAAC offers? Eventually, yes" Sounds like a 5 year plan to me. Think hockeyguy needs some time in the penalty box. To be down on this recruit is mindboggling. Even Papi wouldn't try and turn this into a negative.

Yes - I love his excitement. He WANTS to be here! And I like this quote “So I believe I would have been recruited better if I didn’t have those academic struggles. But I believe everything works out for a reason. I believe God has a plan and this is where I’m supposed to be.”

Oh no!!! This means don't even put the crumbs in view. I82, last year ONE DAY I shot under 80 on the golf course. The 15 or 20 times I was a mid to high 80's golfer. One time did not change my status as a golfer. I was NOT referring to you. Sorry you took it that way. One of the reasons I hate communicating with a keyboard - it often misses true intent. I apologize totally that I was not clear.

Did anyone else pick up the word 'coaches' in this article?

Manning and Watson, still there.. What are the chances that JC keeps 1 or both? Maybe he just brings in one from MSM who knows his system and keeps Manning and Watson to continue recruiting...? Manning knows the DMV and Canada. Watson knows some midwest and New England Prep scene. If they have alumni 'connections' as some allude to..maybe they stay on.

Jamion said he’ll have a staff done within a week. No chance he keeps two members of a disaster of a staff.
