I read that as being, Kahn was hired a bit late in the process at Mary Washington to a team that basically didn't recruit that final year they made the run to the Elite 8... so there wasn't much time to start recruiting in the short term. Kahn can now recruit and has time, so it's just a matter of building from here. However, last year and maybe some bumps in the road now are because there wasn't any recruiting time or recruits for that matter at first.

Makes sense. I didn't realize he was hired late. Thanks!

Well the biggest factor was also the simple fact that the last year under Coach Rod Wood didn't do a ton of recruiting (if any) due to the bad feelings between him and administration surrounding his departure as head coach... so Marcus was also working with a pretty bare cupboard and no groceries coming in. He also got hired on April 28, which is plenty of time in some manner, but not when you have no one coming in ... in the first place.

Looking forward to the rest of this season. I like the team we have. They have been fun to watch so far. Now it is time to see how we fare on the road. I will miss the games over the break though. Bummer.

I got a chance to sit down with Salisbury coach Andy Sachs at the Hoopsville National Invitational Classic this past weekend. Check out his interview and the rest of the Hoopsville Coach's Corner (which substituted for this Sunday's show) here: http://www.d3hoops.com/hoopsville/archives/2015-16/coachs-corner

Okay, folks, Salisbury's coming to Newport News on Wednesday for the "Battle of the Bay"! Talk about a huge early season conference clash...SU is 5-0 and CNU is 4-0...the winner of this game will have an instant leg up in the conference, as I expect them to duke it out for conference supremacy!

GO CAPS!

Game Day!

...and round 1 goes to CNU! The Captains got a big spark in the second half from McFarland and were able to pull away...very impressed w/Salisbury...athletic and tough defensively.

GO CAPS!

I guess that's better than nothing...

Centennial board is just as bad.

another good day in the CAC. UMW has yet to be tested in conference. All of this without Shaw, arguably UMW's best player. Must stay competitive until he returns early in 2016. The newcomers (including 4 starters) should also continue to improve.

Swish3 · December 05, 2015, 11:03:07 PM

What's up with Shaw?

jesskleangda · December 07, 2015, 11:39:27 AM

my sources say that he has a broken hand and will return in January. Again, potentially all league player.
