we might not be good. and we surely wouldnt be great. willard won one ncaa game in 10 yrs... if he cant land a top recruit then his ceiling is extremely low.
“We need ET.” Didn’t you post earlier this week ET was definitely committing to SH
Agreed. And to an extent I’m ok with a ceiling of making the ncaa tournament every year for however many years in a row. But it seems like we’re on the verge of greater heights in the tournament this year, with a real possibility of pushing the program to another level. This is the type of recruit that helps us do that.
I was at the Seattle Kingdome in 1989 to watch the Final Four, been a season ticket holder since 1988, my two seats this season come at a cost of almost $2,000, I'm a big Seton Hall fan alright. It would be great to get ET in the fold, but, with or without him we'll be just fine. Anyone who is truly stressing over this recruitment, other than the coaches, needs to get a grip.
It was a hypothetical as to where the heck are we supposed to draw the line since we obviously must be stressing about this recruitment. If you took it literally I can’t help you with that. If we don’t get him MAM is still out there.
I’m not worried about ceiling. I like what I see from Nelson, Rhoden, Ike, and Samuel. Not to mention how much recruiting is around transfers.
Exactly my point. Some want to be good and are comfortable with that. I want to be 12 all the time. Won’t happen without having one or two alphas. I guess it’s also worth mentioning that getting a kid like this could help keep our coach here longer.
Or on the flip side it would make him more attractive by dispelling the thought he can’t recruit high level talent and would potential have a top recruit in his pocket to possible bring to another program with him.
Doctor bills will increase from all the stress. Never would have thought it but my guess a lot of pirate fans will be sleepless tonight thinking of the countless scenarios of how tomorrow could play out LOL
If you took off more than 2 days, by definition of this thread you’re a bigger fan than I am. My hats off to you sir
I believe he was snatched off the railing of the GW bridge and that should count for something, too
I would be ecstatic with either player. It wouldn’t surprise me if MAM turns out to be the better player, but there are ancillary benefits of signing a 5-star player that only come with ET.
NO. THAT IS NOT MY POINT. I think we have a terrific returning nucleus, have three good additions already, and will add another piece or three who will help keep us as a top level team.
So are you a loser who buys season tickets? Or do you not care about SHU basketball? Take your pick. Clearly you are calling everyone who buys season tickets a loser.
I get all that and right now ET is better all around.. but with MAM’s heights, athleticism and from all accounts is an animal on the court and a great defender... he has all the gifts that would make him have the higher ceiling in the next few years
Except that College basketball is massively better than the NBA.
I think that entire post he made just confirms him as a person who comes to this site just to throw flames on a message board. Why would anyone who supposedly loves seton hall call season ticket holders losers because they buy tickets to see 18-20 year olds?
I was being facetious. Like why make fun of people who care about this recruitment? Just because were not one year in the future and hes actually on our team?
Christ. Im saying the opposite. Im saying those people who are shaming people for caring about ET recruitment because hes a highschooler might as well be shaming the entire fanbase. Im defending it.
NBA has elite defense. Thats how the good teams and best players succeed and why guys like hazell couldnt even sniff a team.
