I think I made made my point.  I don't see anyone disputing my point that all of those players including the SJU freshmen would start for any MAAC team and everyone knows that.

Put our sixth through 10th players in 2012-13 as starters on any team in the MAAC and they would win that conference.

The eligible or uneligible 6-10 players?

It is a safe bet that there aren't any players "uneligible".  If you mean ineligible, well that is another story.  But one that I am confident won't be an issue.

I suppose we can always just have grades changed to get them eligible like Iona did with Glover. If that fails, we could just pay new players to come like they did with Momo.

Doesnt matter, as long as they are qualitized. Lets see which school is on probation first

Some guy on bigeastboards used to tell me the same thing

It's a crazy thought but if Jones is allowed to play next season, one could make the argument that the Gaels could have the three best players in the metropolitan area with Jones, Glover, and senior point guard Scott Machado. It's a debatable topic for sure -- Seton Hall's Herb Pope, LIU's Julian Boyd, Fordham's Chris Gaston, and Rutgers' Dane Miller and Gilvydas Biruta could all be in the conversation but just the fact that the question is raised speaks volumes about the level of talent that's being stocked in New Rochelle. The Gaels staff is also privately high on former White Plains star Rashad James, who be eligible next season.

enough already!!! He ain't coming to SJU so who cares.  There are more posts here than for any of the fine young men who signed up to be Redmen.  Support them not someone who does not matter to SJU.  post on the iona board or on the board of whoever will have him if you must.  He does NOT exist to SJU!

Message boards 101. If you dont want to read a thread, dont click on it-pretty easy stuff. This thread is on the recruiting page, why shouldnt I post in it?

For those questioning Momo's relationship to his grandmother and her illness

Who would have ever thought Iona grads would put up that much money to get a player ? Guess the grads who worked at Marty and Lenny's did pretty good

Per Zags:
Lamont "Momo" Jones has officially signed financial aid papers with Iona. School will now work on obtaining NCAA waiver. more later

Gotta say, Baldi aint too far off wit his backcourt prognostications.

You know it Choz! Your boy Kyle Smyth will be lighting it up from long range with Sean Armand. Iona is stacked with or without Momo next season. Sweet 16 or bust

Heard MoMo brought the house down with the entire camp watching his workout. Funny thing: Mike Glover's older brother, Anthony, participated as well

Jones says he has a 90 percent chance of playing next season, though that’s his own guess.

“If they’re going to let me play, they’re going to let me play,” Jones says. “Right now I’m just hoping, God willing, that I do get the waiver. I don’t feel like I should be penalized for making an unselfish decision to come home to be with my family in this time of need.

“I think that any man who’s the man of the house would do the same thing.”

Marty and Lenny's - nice pull... Nothing like ladies night on a Friday, open bar, and then ladies pouring downstairs ... good times...

And how's the talent level at St. Peters?

The biggest problem with Iona from what I saw is their coach.
