If assigned to investigate the reason for Iona's 2 win season, and careful examination of all information pertaining to it, I would have sent the case forward to a ''Basketball Examiner'' for a finding...I am sure the finding would have come back with a ''DEATH BY SUICIDE''..... The 'Nothing' recruitment, the lackluster pre-season practice, the complete lack of team effort and its obvious acceptance of defeat, etc. glared for all to see... Ruland seemed to have knowledge of his fate and was going through the ''Final year'' motions... It was a year not to be proud of Iona basketball, and I sometimes wonder if it was not intended to be...  |

He also lost his best 4 players to graduation, which is partially his fault. Cluess has done a great job of always restocking and part of his strategy I believe is to always bring back 3 starters, I think this is very smart. Hopefully Amayo will get the extra year and he won't lose more than 2 starters this year.

He also was told ti fire his staff, which killed recruiting.

That 2 - 28 season was an embarrassment to our greatest player of all time. It was an embarrassment to Iona. It cost us our relationship with our all time great. What is the point here? Did it take you ten years to process the magnitude of that debacle? Again, what is the point?? AS for you, You are an old hand -period!! |
