Anyone still questioning coach? ::) Maybe next year we can wait until the signing period is over before we complain.

All together now, we are lucky to have Coach Lavin and staff! Not about kool aid, just the facts! Come on, who would have ever imagined we have a chance to be truly competitive again!!

Yup!

A lot of talent but a lot of trouble too. Not sure we need that risk

Risks now can be taken.  Got enough talent in the cubard incase a risk does not pan out.

Zags notes some detail about above. Justn Raffington, SF transfer?

“@AdamZagoria: Latest Sanchez/Bourgault to #stjbb story plus recruiting targets for Johnnies http://t.co/U03Dv6G8

Raffington nothing to write home about from what I read. A big w limited action at SF. Plan D perhaps!

Turner is uber talented.   I know he has problems, but he was one of the top pgs in last year's class.  Right up there with Teague and Kabongo.

This would be a HUGE get.   To add a guard like that would be fantastic. 

Oh my is right, paultz!


The next big piece will be Chandler though.   No idea when we'll hear about him - but his eligibility would be a great push in the right direction for this program.

Sounds like most (besides Chandler) might be 2013 pieces though, no? 

Everyone says Nolan and Wood are 2013, and Hooper and Turner would both have to sit out a year.

This cant be taken like its some inside info cause it aint that. but a d1 to d1 transfer is running outta options as the time passes. So usually a d1 to d1 trans is on his best behavior 'cause the safety net of another high level school takin you on aint gonna be there.

Just sayin is all.

And maybe thats why 2013 has been quiet.  Lawrence seems to be the only name we are consistently mentioned with in 13.  Remember there are 6 or 7 teams in the major conferences this year who have no recruits for this year.  So its not crazy to only bring in 1 guy.

The puzzle getting clearer, indicative of Lavin's recruiting capability.  Great day and start to respectability and being in the hunt on an annual basis!

On Josiah Turner - had to look thru the whole thread to see if anyone mentioned it.   He finshed his high school career as a teammte of Sir Dom's at QEA.

Feel pretty confident that if SJU is involved with Turner, they've talked to Dom about any issues for Josiah as a teammate, and gotten positive feedback.

To be fair Dom might have known Josiah for like half a year at most.
