GMAC / Blackwell / AO to Siena

[OrangeXtreme]

Is Blackwell official? Shumpert works in the district too I believe.

Blackwell is going to happen.

Official announcement TBD.

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

Shumpert works in the district and is the JV coach. He would be the logical replacement.

Will he be loyal when a P5 offer comes?

Will he be loyal when a P5 offer comes?

I hope not.

Because if he gets a P5 offer, that will mean he won at Siena.

And that would shut up some of the haters here.

Boeheim said it’s a great place to launch a career or something to that effect. I think everyone involved knows it may not be forever.

Siena knows this isn’t a lifetime job if a coach wins there.

Siena knows this isn’t a lifetime job if a coach wins there.

Of course, I just roll my eyes when a coach or anyone in the professional world talks about loyalty.

 

[SuFTW]

The headline doesn’t match what McaNamara actually said. He didn’t talk about loyalty. He talked mainly about the community support for the Siena program. The only time loyalty was mentioned was in regards to Syracuse and the “loyalty of the people that came through there.”

How loyal does Gmac have to be to Siena? If he’s killing it there for 4/5 years is he supposed to stay forever? If he leaves for a ACC school he’s now considered not loyal to some of you. Makes no sense. Go get your worth young blood!

I don’t care about loyalty at all.

There isn’t a human being on the planet that doesn’t act in their own self interest.

People are altruistic because it’s self serving in some manner.

And so long as people admit that, then everyone goes about their day. It’s when they pretend it’s not also self serving that people get annoyed.

Well deserved.

 

[Cheriehoop]

Liverpool will really miss him.

 

[Cuse1055]

Also bringing along Arinze.

 

[shandeezy7]

Also bringing along Arinze.

Interesting that he's listed in the staff directory, but there's nothing out there officially:

Arinze Onuaku

Maybe it's a different Arinze Onuaku?

 

[MSOrange]

Maybe it's a different Arinze Onuaku?

I would be willing to bet you on that if you'd like

Liverpool will really miss him.

They got over the Beatles leaving

Gerry just got Andre Jacksons brother to come to Siena from UAlbany.

Gerry just got Andre Jacksons brother to come to Siena from UAlbany.

Is he any good?

 

[Cusefan0307]

Is he any good?

Started for Albany and has 2 years left. A smaller version of his brother.

Siena was announcing one new coach a day.

Maybe tomorrow is AO day.
