Video of James: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWaC_SmyA90In the first minute or so, he's #22. Later, he's wearing #1 in red, then #5 in dark blue. Video is impressive in that in a lot of clips they're showing him PASSING. |

I have been feeling that with our present situation, unless we can hit a home run, we should hold our last scholly till next year.
IF, and I emphasize IF, James is coming on board, we have hit that home run!

On the surface it appears that this recruiting class is superior to the Laury, Leonard class of the old regime. But you never know what lies beneath the surface! However its hard not to be excited about the upcoming season things look good  |

And I'm trying to get confirmation myself via other avenues. |

Machado, Smyth, James, Glover and A-Rod....
armond and jenkins first guards off the bench and McFadden the first big
how deep is this years rotation?

Great news. Team is looking solid. As an alum living in the land of the "Saint" Benards, I am anxious to hear their spin. The Fordham folks must be thrilled too. Congrats to the coaching staff.

Impressive recruiting for a D2 coach, imagine what what he'll be bringing in after a year or two at the D1 level! :-)
