No Reason to Overpay for Isaiah

I’m a big Coleman supporter. He’s better than Richmond or Dre were as sophomores. I don’t think he’s reached his ceiling. Of course, it’s all about $ but I think we should pay what we can to keep him.

In addition, I would keep Godswill, Prince and, yes, Dual. Godswill’s showing he belongs. Prince is effective out to 10 feet. Plays tough. Dual is raw, but we should be able to afford him and he’s shown potential IMHO.

Felton and Gus are right price people. Felton shows some offensive potential but needs to work on his handle and defense. Gus is a decent deep reserve.

If we keep all of those guys we're going to suck again next year.
 
Upgrade at all positions.....if u can

Coleman...if he has the chance to get paid the same or more AND win, id be gone too
 
Oh I get it. I take it you missed the Marquette game? You can add 3 all Big East players to this group & we'd still be an average team at best.

Don’t you get it? You keep those guys and you supplement that group with two or three front line BE level players— PG, Big, Shooter. Won’t be easy and need $$$.
2 or 3 decent players will not compete for a Big East championship. This team the worst SHU team in decades. You think 2 or 3 players surrounded by 6 or 7 players from this season are going to turn it around? With the exception of Coleman there isn’t a single player on this team that would see big minutes on a top tier big east team and Coleman wouldn’t start. He is a decent player on a really bad team which is why he stands out.


A team that retains and develops players is the exception to the rule than the standard. There is almost a zero chance that any current players on this team stay four years. They are not good enough now to develop over an offseason to make a difference next season.

I’d rather take a chance with an entire new roster next season than bring anyone back this season. The style this team plays and the pace they play it is awful to watch. I’d rather see a loss but play an exciting brand of basketball than watch the sloppy snooze fest that is the current team.

Keep donating, everything you've got. Forget about your daily life and money needs, this is more important. Maybe you can save us!

You have to. You have 1 BE starter on this roster right now. The rest are players 6-10 in the rotation, backups at best. Maybe a couple can give you something more as they're still young (Middleton, Erheriene, Dual). Like our early PJ teams that were this bad but had young guys that ended up getting us into the NCAAT as upper classmen. But you cannot bank on that.

But we're an NIL poverty school right now. We can't find donors. SHU has nobody willing to help unlike other BE programs. We're going to try to rely on revenue sharing, which every other team will do too. That's why we lose more BE starters than we bring in.

Need the big donors somewhere. I think it's still a problem even with the incoming revenue sharing.

I mean the small contributions won't get too far but they could help. If The Hall has 7,000 season ticket holders and you averaged a modest $250 donation once per year that's $1.75M alone to assist from small contributions.

The other issue is the portal opens in 2-3 weeks. Hope the money is already there.

Worst Seton Hall team in 40 years and people want most of these guys back. Absolute insanity.
Go ahead, keep making stuff up. Nobody said keep most of these guys. What everyone said was keep some guys from the top six and build around them— what every successful team in the NIL era does.

Go ahead keep making stuff up. My daily life is very well taken care of. You obviously give nothing to any part of SHU. But sure keep running your mouth, talk is cheap/free.
 
What does overpaying for isaiah even mean? If his market price is 750k u gotta pay at least 750k. Guys who produce are gonna cost money, unless u want a repeat of this year

I suspect that most SHU graduates are NOT really in love with the basketball program as the people on this forum and that would include many who are quite wealthy. I know most of my classmates could care less about the basketball program. Either they had no interest in sports or the sport they had an interest in was not hoops. That I think is the reality we are faced with.

Which is the reality for every school.
