    Blonde kid, I'd guess HS, or Juco age. Again a guess, 6'8' about 250 - at first I thought maybe Porterfield up for a visit, but I don't think it was him, looked heavier.

    Not a big difference, but SRU did beat IUP at IUP in 1991-92 season... So streak is still long, but shorter one year...27 years

    I've heard good things on Ulrich but we won't know for sure until the lights turn on.

    Of course, the fact Joe got the player to campus is pretty big. Once they get them here his close rate is pretty good.
    Big time. #CLOSER

    Three ultra-athletic, big, fast guards. All shooters and slashers. Their press should be crazy next season. Add to it two big-time deep shooters in Bryce and KJ. Anthony White can also definitely be a spark guy.
    couldnt
    I know the Joe method. We all do. But, ... he's going to have the bodies to go deep next season. It could be time for a change. I'm not talking something radical. But, he could keep the big three (Malik, Armoni and Morris) all around 30 minutes and the other three get around 10 minutes. Keeps everybody more fresh.

    I also think you see a different Malik. We've heard grumblings about his relationship with Dante. He may not feel as much pressure to create next season.

    I'm pretty excited to see this new edition.

    My opinion based on the roster: The last big needs to be a muscle big. I didn't like how easy Mercyhurst was able to shut down Cobo in the last game. If a Daddy Ugbede is out there ... get him.

    One thing for sure ... this isn't a rebuild-season roster. This team will have very high expectations. This last signing is a big one.

    One-time Joe signee Blake Morrow (who bailed last August) is now leaving Queens (NC).

    As I like to say .... F that rock.

    Grady has one year left with Till. Maybe next year he won't cry at the KCAC. But ... he probably will. No doubt.

    I try and stay calm on here. SRU twitter has led me astray. F 'em.

    Hopefully he's here one more year. Stock is rising.
    I heard Payne on the radio after IUP beat WCU in the first round of the tournament and he talked glowingly about working under Joe (interesting since I have heard that it's an awful assignment lol). However, he said he enjoys the atmosphere around the program and is very happy doing what he's doing. I don't see him here much longer. Then again, nobody expected Kelly Mazzante to still be around either.

    Either would be making more money working in the field they got their degree in. No doubt there. Only head coaches make actual cash at non-D1 programs. Even then, you better be in the right situation. That guy at Clarion made 50K. How much do you have to love basketball to do that job for that salary?

    Is Mazzante married? I know she played in the WNBA, which probably didn't pay her a ton. But, if she's married and her husband has a cushy job, maybe she's not out seeking a big paycheck. I know it's been well documented that she has little to no interest in being a head coach and, as such, is happy at IUP in a great position with Tom.

    All seriousness I could see Payne leaving at any time. Can't blame him. A big school is going to swipe him up.

    I just wonder if he's still mopping the floor with our guys in practice on a daily basis? He did start at Auburn for several years.
