Theory is you get kids out of prep, perhaps those you wouldn’t have gotten in the past but are now more attainable because better programs or programs with more resources are hitting up the portal more regularly, and then you develop those kids to the point where they will stay as long as you are remotely competitive in the NIL department. That they don’t necessarily have a foot out the door or chase the highest dollar because they like the staff, school, etc and believe long term staying is best for their career, because they all think they are playing somewhere professionally.

It’s not a crazy thought, but that’s where Sha and the staff come in to identify, develop, and retain these kids by making them think the Hall is the best option even if not offering the most $.
A kid blows up and hes gone. Coleman somehow averages 12ppg hes testing the waters

Don't over think it - Defense has been good

The acid test against VCU. They have height up front, good guard play & they put up a load of points. They are a balanced scoring team with 3 or 4 players who can hurt you. We have another 50 point game & we have another loss. Sha cannot screw around with them--not a MAAC team. (Have a relative that lives a few blocks from their campus) If we can somehow find 65-75 points we win--where those points come from???????????

Do u want freshman anymore? Especially the quality we get. The best teams can get freshman who produce 1st and 2nd year. We have to wait till they are juniors. Are we going to pay them all that time till they produce? Why not go after juniors seniors and grad guys who have shown they can produce.

Outside of jenkins who are we paying a nice bag to in order to come back? Im sure this may change in march but i dont see anybody who deserves much.

Jenkins is a fifth-year senior. He won't be back.

Not even a game thread…

Impressive research. Where is all that data posted? Is it on shupirates,com?

Why is Addae-Wusu playing the point, even when Jenkins is on the floor? Not his fault be he has no idea how to run an offense. Shaheen said we are down 2 point guards - who are they and will they rescue Addae? Can’t score 60 points or shoot free throws, so defense is not going to do it with better competition. That said, defense was very good and Toumi should start. 2nd most talented guy on the team.
Stipe65 --Agree with most of what you write but not about Toumi --in fact I am shocked he got an assist awarded.
