What is Vetrone's role right now?

I was busting your chops not so much for your love of shoes but your complaining about Coach P's lack of recruiting. He hasn't even been here a year yet. Sorta like complaining that he is still winless.

He can recruit, just that he cannot go on the road and recruit.

So he handles the walk ins?

He recruits from his desk. He never went to visit Sa.

I love the optimism from Sanders and him thinking its good that they are picked last. I hope they surprise some teams. But a few months ago i was hoping the same thing about the football team. Granted basketball is eadier to turn around. And i think Jordan was a far worse coach (from a tactical pov) than Flood. I am holding out hope that coach can get a lot more out of the guys than Eddie did.

Shoes has great relationships with HS and AAU coaches. He can talk and text with recruits all day and night. With that and getting their coaches to get them to visit is the key. When he gets them to campus on unofficial or official visits he can spend time with the recruits to further bond with them.

Disagree that EJ was worse from a tactical perspective. Our offense was actually run well and we would get decent looks. EJs issue was getting his teams to play with effort, enthusiasm and hustle. That translated defensively.

“To go from what we had last year to what we have this year, it’s a great jump,” Sanders said. “I love how everybody thinks we’re going to finish last and all that because there’s not a better time to be a Rutgers Scarlet Knight.”-Sanders.

Great attitude.
