    I'm waiting until I can add Jayson Harris to it

    It appears Joe is attempting to have 13 guards and 2 post players next year -- and likely redshirt 6 of the guards.

    IUP doesn't seem interested in him. That's the problem.

    Dallis Dillard (missed majority of '23-'24 season due to injury)
    Ian Herring (incoming freshman / post-grad player)
    Sarp Furtun
    Anthony Watson (redshirted in '23-'24 after JUCO transfer / two years' eligibility remaining)


    F

    Damir Brooks
    Gabriel Romero-Sanz
    Tyler Grove (incoming true freshman)
    Callum MacNamara (missed majority of '23-'24 season due to injury)




    Notes:

    * There is one GMAC transfer guard (who visited IUP yesterday) in the mix (several are chasing him including West Liberty and St. Thomas Aquinas)

    * While the KJ McClurg rumors were entertaining and would have made a great story, word on the street is he's planning to move (back) up to D1. I wouldn't say this is completely dead, but, ...

    * Clarion export Jayson Harris is still available. He's an instant fix and Day 1 starter. Harris has also smoked IUP several times. This seems like a no-brainer. Make the call, Joe.

    Looks like a good signing. It would be nice to get a kid that’s here five years and grows with the program. I realize this is a signing for the future, but I’d like to see a forward or two show up soon. As it is right now, looks like IUP is running a four guard starting lineup.
    It should be soon. Brooks and Romero-Sanz are the only two scholarship post players on the roster as of today.

    It appears Joe beat out a lot of schools on this one.


    Joe is going big as that's two 6'6" guards in this class.

    Yes, a lot of schools were after him. Could be a pretty nice signing. Defense is the worry b/c he can score on all 3 levels.

    The PSAC is a good home for IUP -- which is far, far from the IUP most of us used to know.

    There was perhaps a window to move up 20-25 years ago.

    But, really, move up to where? At best one notch, which is the dead-end, wasteland of D1?
    And the PSAC was a good home for Mercyhurst. Have no idea what the Administration thinks they are gaining in the NEC as they are Division One in name only.

    Exactly. You'd lose attendance and significantly increase travel costs. Best situation is you win the conference and get to play the #5 Big 12 team in a play in game. The NEC is rated so low their auto bid isn't even really a bid to the tournament.

    I often think of Mount St. Mary's, which used to be a powerhouse in small-college basketball. Heard of them much lately? Probably not.
