The new Fordham coach might just be the real deal for the Rams. He just landed Will Richardson, thanks Sharkey, and an article in Zagsblog, a couple of weeks back, showed how he is trying to use NYC in his approach to changing the climate/culture for Fordham BB. Took his team to a Met Opera rehearsal, and also a boat trip around Manhattan. They have nowhere to go but up. We might want to put him on our watch list.

Fordham Rams - nowhere to go but up since 1992!

This will likely end poorly for the new coach there.

My take from Richardson gping to Fordham is it proves there are 4-star recruits who will commit to programs without HM facilities. Too bad he didn't commit to Iona, but I'm confident pitino and staff will land one.
As far as Neptune he's showing he can recruit. Let's see if he's the anti Dunleavy, an ex Villanova assistant that can coach

I'm disappointed in Greg's response. Seeing that the team went to the Met, I was expecting, "He's hoping that they'll be singing a different tune".
P.S. 1970, in case the Alphabet man retires, we'll need a coach.

Neptune and his staff did a nice job of landing Richardson.
I think we already have our PG of the future in Walter Clayton Jr. I am sure our staff would like to bring in a PG/true Combo guard as an insurance policy, but I think everyone here is going to be thrilled with Clayton's development over the next year.

He could be Zeus instead of Neptune, take them to Broadway, to the Statue of Liberty, to the Empire State building, to see the Rockettes at Radio City, eat pastrami sandwiches at Katz's Deli with de Blasio, and they're still the Fordham Lambs; perennial A10 doormat and embarrassment to D1 basketball. He's getting his players familiar with tragedy.

86, I agree about Clayton. But this year we have Clayton, along with Joiner and Cashaw at the Point. Next year, as of now, only Clayton. We need a PG.

I think you will see the staff pull in a high rated JUCO or transfer, possibly a true combo guard who can run the point when needed. The problem is every guard thinks they are a combo guard like every PF/C with a handle thinks they are a point forward. LOL I think Pitino is embracing his inner TC by seeing the value in older players with a proven track record.
