yeah, and his appeal was enhanced by his deep connections in the baltimore/dc aau sceneAt least Harried was actually a coach [albeit at the high school level].

I saw Rosie try to play offense. Call me ambivalent to the ideaRosie Bowie (sp) is available, just saying...
you guys are dreaming, we can't get a quality big man if our life depended on it
No one on the recruiting trail even knows who Bowie is. He would have no connections to AAU teams.

Rosie averaged 16 & 8 his Sr year & made 65% of his shots. Don’t really think you have a clue!
How in the world do you have so many "likes"?

Still MIA since his brilliant post criticizing OB for finishing -12 in a game where he played all 40 minutes.before his heel turn, he used the effective strategy of telling people what they wanted to hear

All dunks. He was offensively challenged. Great defender, and an all time SU great. If he could shoot, he would have played in the NBA. BTW, Etan averaged 13&8. Would you want him teaching offense to big men.

We're getting lost in the weeds: 1) I mentioned Rosie as a possibility because he's well known and understands the position. But he was just an example; 2) a big 'guru' doesn't necessarily have to be a former big. Hop was a guard and he knew the position and worked with bigs at the Pics.
The point is, if they decide it's the right move, JB and JW will be able to find a candidate that checks both boxes ... high level recruiting and player development. Seems this is a piece missing from the staff. JMO.
Smits and it's not even close. The other kid has potential but is a virtual unknown.Getting back to the Center recruits - things are looking better now for potential help for next year - Tre or Smits (or Carrigan).
I prefer Tre or Smits over Carrigan, but am having a hard time choosing between the two. How are people ranking these two?
Your view is based on the recent teams that were fielded. Really had not had a scoring option at center for a number of years especially since R. Christmas who was a main scoring option his senior year. Had difficulty with Pascal catching the passes, turning and attempting to score. Sidibe had potential and then got hurt.Likely one the main reasons why we didn’t get qudus is our reluctance to feed the post.
Can unequivocally say that one of the ways other coaches recruit against us is to tell big men that we don’t feed the post. Goes back a long way.Likely one the main reasons why we didn’t get qudus is our reluctance to feed the post.
