No -- the fact that we try to pick a point guard, a shooting guard, a small forward/swing man, a power forward and a center on each All-American team is definitely worthy of being included, however.

Actually, I went to go add that to the FAQ and found it was already pretty well covered:

It's not entirely listed there but I'll try to get back and update it at some point.

Key weaknesses - No.  He is trusted with the ball in his hands at the end of games all the time and we are 24-5 and in the Sweet 16.  Could it be better.  Absolutely...but so far he's been good enough.

Thanks for the conversation and we at DeSales wish you lots of luck this coming weekend.

Congrats on Braswell's selection!  I do recognize the name when I see it now.

Good stuff CCIW.

Enjoy the off-season and thanks for the congratulatory message.

Coach K

Woo-hoo! Schedule's out for 09-10!  ;D

Thanks again to Coach Rickrode for scheduling a 717 tour stop.  2 years ago, it was Penn St Harrisburg.  Last year, it was Lebanon Valley.  This year, it's Wilkes at Elizabethtown.  Rest assured, I'll be there, wearing the proper shade of blue.

I saw "Scranton, PA" on the schedule, and did a double-take.  Were we really taking a trip back to the Long Center?  Had all been forgiven with those purple ingrates?  Nope - thank God.  Just a non-conference game at Marywood.  Beautiful.

Love the setup of consecutive games to end the regular season: DeSales at home, King's at home.  Great way to get the team ready for the postseason.

Time to start figuring out which days I need to call off of work (Jan 16th & Feb 20th to start...)

CJ,

Good to see you back in action bud :)

On the schedule, ref. my post on the Landmin....er, Landmark board earlier this week. While at Ralston Field for the Wilkes football season-opener, I had a chat with a person or two who are key figures in the Colonels basketball operations. The word was that Coach JR was eager to schedule Scranton, and had productive discussions with the purple brass about just that. The hang-up apparently was that the game was set for Jan. 5, but the Royals wanted to have several days off before their conference action resumed. As a result, a date could not be agreed on for the 2009-10 campaign. No problem with that- each coaching staff prepares differently- but it would have certainly been nice >:(

However, the schools do have a scrimmage set, so things are moving in the right direction, and hopefully we'll see the Wilkes-Scranton matchup back on the schedule ASAP. Hope all else is well down in your neck of the woods.

Oh, and as you've no doubt seen, the Colonels will be playing just up the street from me, at the school where I'm currently enrolled as a grad student :) First time for Wilkes inside the Insalaco Center at Marywood-a very nice venue for a non-conference game, and light years ahead of the old building.

too early to get the stove heated up?  any early season scouting reports or predictions?  am presuming that all of last seasons playoff teams will remain strong and in the running....any dark horses?

Jumpball,

I talked to Coach JR and several players last Saturday during the Colonels football win over Widener. All parties seemed optimistic of the upcoming season- the depth of talent around the league is understood, but the guys are very upbeat. Many of the same faces are back and there will be some quality depth with experience, so I look for a competitive showing at the Marts Center this season.

As for the rest of the league, there are hardly any players left on MAC Freedom rosters who were there when I was working with Wilkes, so your guess is as good as mine  :D

thanks for the input G-man.  just trying to stoke up some conversation on the upcoming season.  ...and no, your guess is probably much better than mine! :)

Colonels are 3-1... can I get excited yet?  ;D
