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.

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.

Biggest difference is wording, I’d use most of these guys to build around new starters.

I think new PG, new 2G, Coleman, Prince and new big could be filled out by Dual, Felton, Middleton, Godswill for a 9-man rotation.

Gus and 3 freshman (or transfer sophs) fills out bench for little to no NIL.
 
Unfortunately, it likely won’t matter. He has hit Trilly’s transfer portal list with Louisville and GTown as the likely landing spots.

NIL stuff aside, the NCAA has created a joke with the free transfer rule with no sit out restrictions

Got to get rid of free transfer rule or this sport is going to implode. All about the players getting a share of the multibillion dollar pie that NCAA officials and schools have feasted on for decades, but some sense of order is needed.
 
When some posters write that they think an entire new team would be the answer, I shake my head because it’s just so much harder to make a reality than what those people think.

1). Any quality player will cost money. SHU will have to outbid other teams for that player. Likeliness? Not really.

2). The players that seem better are being made available by other teams because they didn’t fit in with their plan. Coincidence?

3). Really have to hope that Sha is a good enough selling point for kids to play for because when all things are equal, a coach might matter.

It’ll be an interesting off season because it’ll really tell what Sha is capable of. If he has even money, can he get 1-2 star kids to play for him?

It will matter, because Seton Hall will have a competitive bid to keep him. Trilly's list doesn't concern me. We either pay up or not.

If we pay up to keep Coleman, probably won’t have enough to bring in a few more big east caliber starting players. This NIL crap is making it close to impossible for smaller schools like us to compete.
 
It's going to be very interesting to see how this plays out. It's rather obvious that there is , and has been, tampering happening on a widespread basis. Even the big football schools are screaming about how it's ruining the sport. You think now that Ohio St is on the receiving end, somebody in the NCAA might actually do something? Probably not-- Hopefully Sha has people out there trying to pilfer players from other teams by now. Why wait until the transfer portal officially opens, it's open season!!
 
MUST. HAVE. CASH. Did we waste a year on bad basketball and still don’t have it? March 24th. We ready?

It’s that simple and clear to everyone other than at 400 SO Ave.

Coleman is a great piece for a good team.

Georgetown, lol.
