Whitehead is a cool kid. He isn't a a rear of a donkey at all. I know some a rear of a donkey kids trust me .he isnt a street punk or anything like that. He just went with seton hall

Problem is that he doesn't come across as such to the public eye KOB, including his HS coach in the deal.  Its a punk move which is why other big programs dropped him and Morton.  Other programs didn't want to deal with him forcing Morton down their throats and making those sorts of absurd demands.    The "face of the program" comments come across like Keyshawn's "gimme the damn ball", without regards for a team concept that basket ball requires.  Everything surrounding his recruitment screams "punk".  Have a hard time believing different.

He  is certainly going to be the face of the program. As it stands now, next season Seton Hall looks like they are going be in a position like we were in 11-12. Young talented recruits, but no leadership, depth or experience. If a freshman shows up and has a "gimme the damn ball" attitude, he's not going to build relationships with his teammates. They are going to resent him unless he's exceptional. In the BE, Iverson and Anthony. Those are the only two that I can think of we awesome from day 1. Whitehead could be Ray Allen, but he's just one guy.

Things could change, Seton Hall could find a couple of sleepers players on their roster. From the looks of things, based on what I saw last year, the player who had the most potential to become an all league guy left for greener pastures at Illinois. Willard came from Iona. Groce from Ohio. Take a gander at who Groce has added so far.

I'm not sure Seton Hall will be anywhere near SJU in 11/12 if Delgado doesn't qualify like many predict.  They wont have all that much talent, and almost none in the frontcourt.  They'll have a few decent sg's but the same problems.  We'll see what they put together. Willard has sold out and hired 3 coaches to get players already.  Not much more wiggle room.

Say Delgado does qualify. He'll be a freshman. Who else they got?

Up front?  Nobody.  Backcourt of Sina, Gibbs, Whitehead and Carrington.  They'll have to go to a 3-guard lineup.  That said, that group only has one pg in Sina.  Sterliing Gibbs isn't as good as his brother Ashton.  Carrington an odd man out who is solid but won't get time before "face of the program" Whitehead.

They need Gibbs and Sina to be really good right away. I think that's asking a lot.

We won 13 games that year. Seton Hall could do that.

That I agree with for sure.  Sina has nice skills and can shoot, but will have a hard time getting to the basket against much bigger and more athletic guards.

I don't have a problem with him saying he wanted to be the face of the program. We were begging kids under norm (Syl, lance etc..) to stay home and be the face of our program.

You know what, you're right. Seton Hall isn't Ohio, or Virginia. It's a local school. He stayed home. The aftermath will be the pressure he's under when after another 11 win season, they hand him the keys, and tell him to do his best Ray Allen impression. I've seen this movie before. El Savior doesn't come. He needs a team to be great. There are no one man wrecking crews in college basketball.

Would have been a coup for Norm.  Not a Lavin level talent.

It will be very interesting to see who gets booted from SHU staff if they give tiny a job.

It is not going to be Antigua because of the Delgado connection (and possibly Flores, who I read here is one of his kids as well).

Flores?
Still wonder if Delgado ever makes it to campus.
Antigua and Shaheen were at the CHSAA semi's the other night at Fordham.
