Time to cut Dylan Addae-Wusu some slack.

There isn't anyone who would be critical of his hustle and effort. He is undersized to play forward, doesn't shoot well enough to be the shooting guard, and does not handle the ball well enough to be the point guard. That being said he is on the roster and can play a role. It is up to Sha to make the best use of him so he can contribute until someone else forces Sha to move him to the bench where he can be the 6th man etc..

And yet, Dylan is asked to be all of the things you describe.

Why? Because he has the ability to do so. He's not tremendous at any one thing but he's versatile and effective at many. It's a valuable piece to have a player fill multiple roles depending on the need and situation.

Are multi team tournaments coming to an end?

The Connecticut athletic Director thinks so.


Not sure if you guys are going to get paywalled on that site. if you do and are curious about the article, let me know and I'll see if I can find a workaround.

In essence, A.D. Benedict says that financial pressures on teams make flying across the country to a tournament in which you don't have any participating profit rights far or less attractive. Benedict and Hurley would rather do things like the coaches classic at MSG where travel costs are more manageable, the games are more accessible to fans, and there are opportunities for the teams to profit as well.

Thinking about that, that may be a step back towards regional basketball, which would be a good thing, in my opinion.

While I get it, the travel costs have zero to do with this; up until NIL it was perfectly fine....and in fact highly valued to travel to Hawaii, Alaska, Bahamas, and anywhere else for that matter; now with NIL options all of a sudden "oh those are too costly"....until of course those events start offering NIL money, then it will be "sure, those are great tournaments with a wonderful history"

Just say it: we will not spend money on a tournament unless said tournament offers us a substantial NIL opportunity. if they do, then you can hold it on the moon for all we care...we'll go.

DAW obviously has his flaws, but if you like raising an NIT banner than you should be giving him a ton of slack. He was the only guy that actually showed up with energy and effort in that first NIT game last year and basically willed us into waking up towards the end of that game. Without him we don’t win the NIT last year.

Give Sha some time to work his magic.

we wouldn't raise the NIT banner because we would have been in the NCAA tournament....

Next NJ GOV

SHUHoopsFan
The next 12 months are going to be wild in states held by democratic governors, especially the ones vowing to fight mass deportations. If Homan follows through mass deportation will happen from the states with republican governors, while democratic governors fight it. Many illegal immigrants I would suspect will be heading to states with democratic governors. If those states get overloaded with illegal immigrants who can't vote, will the voters say enough and elect a republican governor.

St Johns need to realize that that hes not going to win you games but he will keep you in them. He's a stat stuffer like lebron not an assassin like Kobe. Kardary needed Dawes to get hot in the NIT for them to reach their potential.

Both Kadary and Dawes are a product of Sha poking and prodding. Without Sha Dawes would still be just a catch and shoot guy and Kadary would still be stuck in neutral.
