Sure, that's a factor. I struggle with the need to disparage the kids effort and accomplishments. There will be plenty of time for that should Doty underperform playing against ACC talent.
that has been the problem for way too long. everyone hangs around like someone else will get the ball and pass for the open 3.
I don't expect him to be a star, all he needs to be is serviceable, score a bit pass a bit, and play good defense.
There’s 1800 players in the portal and he’s ranked in the top 80 in two services. If he wasn’t a local and went anywhere but Siena people would be happy with this pickup. There’s zero difference in taking him than taking Wilkins who also played in a weak league.
I'll set the bar: Be 3 times as good as Justin Taylor.
Those kind of rebounds happened in the Duke game. I believe the announcers even remarked on it.
He is a smart, athletic, tall, strong kid a good rebounder. A majority of rebounding is intuition, using your body to position. For example Chris Bell could jump out of the gym in the ACC but……
Against SU, you mean? Because yeah, we weren't really an ACC talent level team last season.
Why?
Freeman and JJ Mds AA, Kiyan, White top 30 recruits, Fennel AUS national team, Kyle top D player in country, George led ACC is assist, …not following your logic
How is it a waste? The people that produce the product that makes universities billions of dollars are finally getting a share of it, for the first time, ever. The kids, who were tethered to a school and a coach for 4- 5 years because they were punished if they wanted to change schools, no matter the reason. If schools are hurting, pay the coaches less and reduce the staffs. Reduce travel expenses by playing in more geographically aligned conferences. For basketball, why not have men and women play double headers for conference games? Players getting paid is the least of the issues.
All garbage time points. They were out of that game 4 minutes in.
Oh, I agree with this. Revenue sharing should be just that... But the post I was responding to was objecting to the amount a kid like Doty was offered.
I don’t fault the players. I would do the same. My biggest issue is you can have a millionaire fan buy a team. To me that’s just stupidity
ESPN is big on ignoring the game so they can show reaction shots. They miss important plays frequently because they want to show a player giving high fives, or even fans celebrating in the stands.
MAAC games are produced in house by the school. Camera just out of place as the steals were truly out of nowhere. Siena broadcasts are better than lots of other schools. If you want to see some truly bad broadcasting put on a Mount Saint Marys, Canisius or Niagara game.
