Hey Marillac

Your new man crush didn't play a minute in the scrimmage. :)

That means no YouTube video

All these walk-ons are great for practice. Raises the level of competition and allows for all our guys to be challenged. Especially the bigs. Joey Delarosa will never play a minute but him being a load in the paint for Obekpa in practice will pay dividends against a guy like Stainbrook.

Any idea what the deciding factor is in determining who makes the final official roster? I know Stewert and henderson are listed on redstormsports but Nwachie isnt.
*wipes ketchup from his eyes* - I guess Heinz sight isn’t 20/20.

The Lipscomb /Wheeler HS connection has yielded zilch. Let's get grounded about that Marillac please. All the top players there over past several years went elsewhere & did not give us a sniff. That may change, but doubt it.

He's not at Balamou level yet...but that could change if I see him rip away a few rebounds from someone.  He's got competition with CO, Harrison, and Keith Thomas.

Planting seeds, Paultz.  We'll see what comes of it.  At the very least we have a very good walkon.

Anybody else notice how Lavin slipped in the whole stipend thing in his talk? 

Funny I said that at the Garden back in the 90's and the security guard (I forget the guys name but he used to sit by the bench.  We had a tense relationship) almost kicked me out.  To be fair there was only around 104 people at the game so I was a pretty big % of the crowd

How did he slip exactly?

What did he say about the stipend?
When you're a kid from New York and you do it in New York, that lasts forever!

What did he say about the stipend?

Someone asked if the players live on campus.  He said all but 3 do and they get a stipend.  I don't see that as slipping up?

I didn't even know kids were living off campus anymore. I like it. Any advantage we can get legally we should take

This what I've heard, but it's good to have it verified.  It's a big advantage for us and one that should be exploited.  Jarvis used to make the freshmen stay on campus, but others were allowed to live off after the soph year.  Some exceptions were made along the way.  All the guys living off campus drove nice SUVs.

By slipping it in I was not implying it was an accident.  He said it as a recruiting advantage to those in attendance
