Sanders is one helluva recruit No doubt but he is not experienced nor is he a pg. Don't get me wrong I would love to have him but we do have a pretty good sg in Clayton and our "needs" is more of a proven point guard.

Mount Vernon HS just won NY State championship with an undefeated 24-0 record. Wonder if there is any talent for us on that team. Would be great to rekindle the MVHS-Iona relationship.

Garree Bryant brought nothing to Cluess. Frankly, I get the impression the MVHS coach thinks his kids are too good for Iona. Rekindling would be nice, but I'll trust the connections RP has.

Too good for Iona? I don’t remember many high major level recruits coming out of MVHS recently do you? Last kid I remember from MVHS was the kid who played for FDU and was a very good player (Morgan?).

I’m told the players with D1 potential, are two of their guards who are both Juniors and a 6’9” Senior who sat out last year due to Covid. He would need a year of prep to be ready for D1 play.

Random info from tweets re Givance:
Shamar averaged 13.7 PPG 4.5 RPG 4.0 APG & 1.5 SPG. Mature, reliable & can flat out go.
A tough, talented and poised 5-11 senior point guard that can do it all. He will be a great pickup for someone in the 2022/2023 season.

Well Guy said it would be a interesting offseason. Don't know anything about the assistant coach. Shamar Givance is a 5'10" grad transfer PG. averaged 13.7 ppg and 3.9 apg, but also 2.7 turnovers. Shooting stats not really impressive, but did have 44 steals So I guess this confirms Pitino is returning, but now the speculation on might be leaving the staff. Based on what I saw on the bench this year, I have a strong opinion who it might be

Saw a couple clips from this season--seems like a Gist style player.

Last kid I remember from MVHS was the kid who played for FDU and was a very good player (Morgan?). Not all high major, but higher than MAAC level conferences... Isaiah Cousins, Sherrod Wright, Jason Douglas-Stanley, Michael Coburn, Greg Calixte (now at Bryant).

Saw a couple clips from this season--seems like a Gist style player. Evansville site lists him as 5'10" 155lbs. I thought RP preferred bigger, stronger guards. FG% = 41% 3PT% = 30% FT% = 66% (considering this past year, we need much better) gopurpleaces.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/shamar-givance/5469Not the portal pick-up I envisioned.
