AJ English was not a PG when he was recruited, and that seemed to work out pretty well for us.

This kid pushes that ball; he is in the lane in a flash. Then he shows multiple options. Smells like a PG to me. Gist will be bringing the ball up and running the offense for the next two years. Bank on it...

AJ English was not a PG when he was recruited, and that seemed to work out pretty well for us. Fair point, but AJ came to Iona as a freshman. Little harder to develop a JUCO kid. I love this commitment, just what Iona needs and typical Cluess recruit, 6'3" athletic kid who can score and shoot from the perimeter. Throw in the fact that he is able to attack the rim which gets him to the FT line 8 times again, and he is a very solid recruit. This team will have plenty of scoring options, and developed a great team chemistry. Let Mcneil do what he does best..rebound..score and shoot from the perimeter. No need to mess with chemistry with a score first PG. Having a decent handle and running a offense are 2 completely different things.

Bank on it... Just my opinion,I don’t think you have ever heard the name our PG the next 2 years,don’t be wagering anytime soon! Guess we’ll see.

Numbers suggest hes not a pure PG. Seems like a Gist clone. Nothing wrong with that!

This guard doesn’t get me excited seems the juco league he played in was soft. Till he proves something. Why are we always recruiting guards? I understand Ricky is graduating but we still have Gist, Perez, & Hudson who can play point. I want a true center move Agee over to power forward . We need height not more guards we lack height that’s what’s gonna get us over the hump

IMO we will bring in 4-5 new players for next season. Also think there will be an impact big in the mix...

Agreed. This was a dumb post. Yes, we will address bigs. Yes, this was a great signing. The two have nothing to do with each other.
