I've heard reports from good sources that he has a poor work ethic. Interesting point! Tavon shares that attribute with every poster on this Board - including this one. De facto, if you are (I am) posting here; you have a poor work ethic. So in addition to his affinity for maroon and gold, Tavon shares a crappy work ethic with the rest of us. Sorry I haven't posted lately. Too busy with work. Did I miss anything?

EPatrick, you missed Tim Cleuss' post, listing all the Iona recruits and our schedule. He swore us all to secrecy and then erased the post. So you'll have to wait until the first game to see who is on the team, and I'd love to tell you when and where that game is, but we had to put that info into the vault, to paraphrase Jerry Seinfeld. I guess I can tell you that one of the NEW guys is 7'0 and another is 6'10 so you should be able to recognize them if you ever get to a game.

A.J. English is receiving national recognition and exposure with being chosen to be a counselor at the Adidas Nations Global 2014 in California. Refer to the link www.icgaels.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=14900&ATCLID=209603581 . Great opportunity to meet other top players and coaches. Almost all players chosen are from BCS schools, great exposure for AJ and Iona College. If he stays healthy we will see something special the next two years. Hopefully he continues to play the point as that will be his route to the next level. A.J. enjoy the experience and represent Iona well!

He and one other player were the only ones selected from the north east. All of the others were from the nations powerhouses... He has a fine future in basketball as a player and strong coaching possibilities...He will IMO have a banner year...

Great pickup today with the commitment of Bessick, which takes the last '14 scholarship. So I have to ask...is the roster now final? looking forward to another 20 win season. team looks really solid.

I know nothing about Bessick, except his stats from JMU are not that great, why is everyone so high on him? A slightly similar situation with Laury, I must say I trust Cluess, but what do others know, was he a big high school recruit?

Joebird, I'll tell you how good he is. He even had interest from Siena. Now, does that answer your question?

A slightly similar situation with Laury, I must say I trust Cluess, but what do others know, was he a big high school recruit? From what I have read and a short video I saw Bessick only played a couple years of HS and looks like a late bloomer. 6'9'' athletic bigs tough to come by for MAAC schools. He averaged 6 pts and 5 rebs per game playing only 22 minutes a game. while it would have been nice to have him play this year in the frontcourt with DL, I think the year sitting and practicing will be very good for him. I just see him being a very god MAAC player
