MBB: USA South Conference

[mybleedinghands]

Hey SU I gotta feeling Shenandoah is gonna surprise a few people next year.  They're not losing anybody significant and..........I heard about a Juco guard that is coming in under the radar.  My sources say great jumpshot and 40 inch vertical.

if he's got both he'd be D1, so i'll believe it when I see it with my own eyes in a REAL game.

They don't really need someone with a 40 in vertical leap.  They already have a decent rebounding team, but having a player with a great jumpshot is what SU really needs

BINGO

Umm... that's not exactly a problem.  You can never have too many 40 inch verts

Slim:  check back to page 205 for the SU thoughts for next year... (some of it is copied below:

7.  Old Shenandoah...  When you are 2-22 in conference over the past few years it's hard to start with something positive.  But, we only lose one senior (Moktar averaged 19 pts a game, he'll be missed) and, if Onyie gets a medical redshirt, we could have some nice talent returning. JLawrence and Onyie would make a tough combo down low and Adams will be a Jr. returning at point.  I hope the SU staff can bring in a shooting guard or twelve and give our guys in the paint some room to move. Without an outside presence we are done...  Also would be nice to get a Merriweather slasher small forward in there.  We can also look on the bright side:  Harris did an excellent job of scheduling some small D-I & D-II schools early in the year and played a couple of strong out-of-conference opponents, that experience can only help the young Hornet squad mature.  We even beat the ODAC tourney champ (H-SC) at their place in their holiday tournament (granted both squads had significant injury problems at the time).  Next year should be fun.

While PSBBG, your post on the football board in response to conference tournament site changes goes back to the argument on page 202.

That's a good observation and I agree.  Let's see what happens.

whoa!!! a major addition. this kid can play. from Brookman's old HS. I'm impressed with this announcement. I hope nothing changes between now and when classes start in about 6-8 weeks

'85 - sounds like a nice addition

i will update the monarch recruiting class soon...it's shaping up to be a really nice class - 2 big additions (well really, one BIG addition and one small addition) are finalizing plans...when their plans are final, i'll give you the scoop

let me say this...on paper, this could be a fantastic class...basketball isn't played on paper, though

[CNU85]

I know what you mean....on paper CNU looks good for the starters....

Barton, Blasingame, Baker, this new kid......but then what happens when these kids need a blow?

Whoa wait a second, I have "pride" in my handle and I would never say that.  That is beyond anything I would say, I wouldn't even think about saying something like that.
