He was the team captain at Northwestern, hopefully this is the vocal guy that Carm wants at Siena.
Heard that Tay Fisher helped him pick Siena.

I like the add. Welcome AG! Would love to see Tay added to the Saints coaching staff. Could significantly help players FT and 3PT shooting, and how to be an impact player off the bench. Not to mention a connection to the Saints glory days. And maybe a pre-game warm-up to "Sweet Georgia Brown"!  |

Exactly what we were missing when Burns graduated, he’ll bring the leadership we sorely lacked, nice pick up! Leadership isn’t easily quantified as a stat but it’s worth is immeasurable!
Welcome!

m.youtube.com/watch?v=eXSDOfcoG5kGaines will be a lock down defender and one of the most athletic players in the MAAC. Hopefully he has a Burns like impact coming from a Power 5 conference.

Certainly a great defender. We can start calling him "Off Night" like Davion Mitchell from Baylor. Dropping down to the MAAC should improve his offensive numbers much like they did for Burns. The numbers at Northwestern can be deceptive where his role was defense and not a primary option on the offensive end.

Might be a dumb question but does he only have one year of eligibility? 8.7.3 |

Might be a dumb question but does he only have one year of eligibility? 8.7.3 Two if we chooses to use the second because he RS plus the free one. Aidan Carpenter happy to have some new teammates— |

In Carm and Co. We Trust !!! Siena Nation is feeling a lot better tonight! Great job Men!!! Man, the highs and lows of these last couple of weeks have been brutal. Let's give our coaches a lot of credit for their work ethic and getting the job done. It feels like Christmas today! (even though I did just play golf today) Go Saints!!!

For older fans, Gaines will remind you alot of Bilal Benn from Villanova/Niagara. Same size, same athlete. Should really shine in the MAAC.

So Gaines will now have played with both Kyle Young AND his brother? Weird.

You look at those clips posted yesterday and you'd think he was a featured player on offense. When in reality those baskets you see him make were likely his only points of those games. I am mystified as to why his scoring was so limited there.

Fits Carm's slow it down and limit possessions. Should help team that is basically in total rebuild.
