What a bunch of cockeyed optimists on here. I was rejoicing in a sunny day and rising temperatures in the Capital District before reading today's comments.

Wonder if Martin now feels less threatened! Stunned to read that he started out in D III before going JUCO. Sounds like he wants to be "the man" whether or not he can qualify for $100 K in NIL money.

Where is this Gaines playing PG nonsense coming from, he ended up with the ball in his hands because Hopkins isn’t a PG either…. When McCollum was on the floor (as he became healthier) Gaines didn’t run point. Unfortunately McCollum wasnt available early on and started slow due to injuries and illness. Had he been available from the jump and up to speed we may have witnessed a different offense.

God I hope he is a walk-on… If not this is bad and I think Carm has just given up. Yes. He’s 47-28 overall with three top 3 finishes and he’s just given up. Recruiting this year is going well. The real question is when coach Cal s let go at Kentucky, would he be interested in coming to Siena as an assistant?

I’m pretty optimistic until a couple years into his career and then I may see what everyone is seeing. 🙂 But even then I’ll still be optimistic. 😂

You mean 3rd PG, don’t you? PG1 Gaines PG2 McCollum If rumors of Gaines comming back and playing the wannabe PG 1 bear out McCollumn is gone and who could blame him! All of this chatter about Gaines running PG if he comes back is ridiculous, especially with Martin out of the picture. When JM and AG were on the floor together JM was the PG.

Does anyone have a clue how this recruitment came to be? Seems to be dropped in like a falling star. Clearly based on a prior relationship. 🙄🤨 Erdogan-Kanter-Maciariello

How do you say his name? Or should I wait till he actually shows up on the court.

It is my understanding that they check with both sides (player and the school) to verify before they add anyone. I could be mistaken but I believe they do this type of verification or rely on press reports that have been verified.

I think most fans are skeptical because of our past experiences with foreign players. I cant remember any good ones. I do remember the two kids from England Deane bought in before his exit. Gadot, who went to St Rose and got more minutes at Siena then he did there. Darwiche is the most recent and we all know how that went.
**and please dont say Eric Fluery. The 7'er that attended Guilderland HS. Not the same, and he was just okay, if that.

You have to go back to one year wonder Dwight Walton under John Griffin. Smitten was good and Prince would have had a solid career if he didn’t leave. It’s the European kids that don’t translate as well. I thought Willem would have been better but playing for JO may have been part of the issue.
