Brandeis has inked two more very promising guards, Kourash Kahn Adle from San Francisco and David Perez from Florida.  The judges should be well stocked at guard for years to come.

Another big would be good.

Another Brandeis recruit: Sam Adusei from St. George's School.  New England Recruiting Report lists him as the fifth ranked player in Rhode Island.

Another Brandeis recruit has been announced; this one from right down the road at Waltham High School.  Ryan Power, the school's all time leading scorer and Player of the Year in his league.  An athletic wing, he scored about 24 points a game last year -- not bad at any level.

Nice article about a Brandeis recruit.  Brandeis has been short on bigs (pun intended) so he may be able to contribute right away.

I haven't heard about any other Brandeis recruits.

Brandeis had a varsity men's lacrosse team when I attended in the 70s; Coven was the coach.  It may have been a Title IX casualty.  Brandeis has never had varsity hockey, men or women (or a rink for that matter).  Brandeis has eight men sports ...

According to the New England Recruiting Report, Brandeis has added JUCO transfer Peter Wilson from Community College of Rhode Island.  He put up ridiculous numbers last year -- more than 19 points, five rebounds and five assists per game, 29th in the country in steals and he shot 44% from three point range.

According to Hoopdirt:

"I can confirm that Columbia University Associate Head Coach Jean Bain will be named as the next head coach at Brandeis University (MA). Bain, a native of nearby Medford, MA, had been an on the Columbia staff for the past two seasons. He also spent four seasons as the Associate Head Coach at Dartmouth, and six seasons prior to that as an assistant at New Hampshire. A former standout at Northeastern University, Bain was selected as the 1999 America East Rookie of the Year. An official announcement is expected within the next few days."

Take it for whatever it is worth, but on 9/13 hoopdirt reported:

Ten Skype interviews wrapped up at Brandeis. Here are my totals: 2 Ivy League assistants, 2 Patriot League assistants, 5 DIII head coaches, and 1 DIII assistant coach (a former DIII head coach). Sounds like the list has been cut, and finalists will be on campus within the week.

Does anyone know any of the persons who have interviewed?

According to the Brandeis basketball website, former assistant coach Sean Tabb has been named as interim head coach.  http://brandeisjudges.com/sports/mbkb/coaches/SeanTabb?view=bio
Before coming to Brandeis, Tabb was an assistant and then interim head coach for two years at Trinity and then he was an assistant at Brown.

Cleve Lewis (brother of Carl) was the best soccer player in Brandeis history -- hand's down.

I came across this article which indicates that Gabe Moton, a former Boston College schoralship basketball player who even started several games for what admittedly was a pretty bad ACC team, has transferred to Brandeis.  If true, that sounds like it could be quite a coup.  I can't recall any high major D1 player that got significant minutes transfering to a local New England school.

Pre-Season Poll.  It seems pretty reasonable to me.  Has Case ever been so high or Rochester so low?  A lot will depend on how new players develop.

1. Washington (4) 45 24-3, 13-1 UAA
2. Case Western Reserve (3) 44 14-11, 6-8 UAA
3. NYU (1) 36 17-10, 7-7 UAA
4. Brandeis 27 22-7, 9-5 UAA
5. Emory 25 15-10, 7-7 UAA
6. Chicago 24 13-12, 7-7 UAA
7. Rochester 16 15-10, 6-8 UAA
8. Carnegie Mellon 7 5-20, 1-13 UAA

The University of Massachusetts men's basketball team has added an exhibition game for a good cause.
The Minutemen announced Tuesday they will host Division III Brandeis University at 7 p.m. on Nov. 4 at the Mullins Center. The game will benefit The Food Bank of Western Massachusetts.
"For us to give back to The Food Bank is extra special to me," UMass coach Derek Kellogg said in a statement. "We are doing our part for the Pioneer Valley, my home, with this game to benefit The Food Bank."
To gain admission to the game, fans must bring two cans of non-perishable food or a meal to be donated to The Food Bank. All seating will be general admission.
