Another piece to the depth/talent level of the program....keeps McConnell and Mathis on court for this year...2019-20 shaping up to be a huge season to get things turned around for future and for good.
Further evidence that the recruit locally paradigm is less and less meaningful. Recruit talented players. Geography is a secondary or less consideration.
Welcome aboard!! Great news!! Fully confident in this staff to mold this kid and get the most out of him.
Not if Aundre Hyatt wants to come here
Yeah but the point is to keep the best players in NJ. The goal, if possible, is to make recruits want to stay in NJ. Look if we can get other guys from other states, great but make it easy and keep guys local
I'm not sure why you are apologizing to me but I accept your apology lol.
Yes.
This is nice to hear. I just worry if he is a PG he only had 22 assists in 30 games this past season. I also am a bit concerned with Young, Baker, Mathis and McConnell all as guards in 2019-20 that it might be difficult to keep everyone happy as to minutes. At SF we will have Thiam, Harper & Kiss and each of them could get a few minutes at guard as well. If we should get Mulcahy we would have another guy at PG who will want major minutes. If everyone buys in and are all team oriented I would think everything could work out. I also hope we can get Hyatt this year. If so we might only have Doorson leaving giving us only one scholarship for the 2019 class. I know we really like Mulcahy and Massoud but there is no guarantee on either guy. I just want to see us finally get a winning season. We should definitely have more depth moving forward.

Forgetting Johnathan Mitchell or Mike Kuhn???
Going forward it will give us a nice rotation of four guards (Geo, Mathis, McConnell and Young) with three of those guys being versatile enough to play PG. Mathis could play on the wing, so there would be good enough depth at the wing even without Hyatt.
But a future frontcourt of Hyatt, Harper, Myles Johnson, Doucore and hopefully Massoud would be amazing

Nice problem to have. Those 4 guards in 2019 will need to earn the minutes. That competition will make all of them better and the best players play. If a guy is not happy with minutes....get better and earn more minutes. And, if Mulcahy is added to the mix, he'll play if he proves he is better than someone else....if not, he sits.
I still remember what Pikiell said in Year 1.
" I play the best and I'm fair to the rest"
