After EJ, I'm expecting big things from Gist. He really came on this year. If we can get Gist an extra year of eligibility it would be huge. I had lost patience with Gist during OOC play, but he has come on strong and shown he has a great work ethic. If he can improve his 3 pt shooting in the off-season he can be a very dangerous MAAC player. I think he can become a Momo-like player for us except one degree lower in quality. I thought it was confirmed he has two more years of eligibility...

Believe Gist has two more years. Yet I expect the staff to recruit a point to compete for the position.

I still say he is the PG for the next two years 😉. I know this post will elicit some “he’s a shooting guard” or “he doesn’t record assists” responses. Go ahead... lets not let facts get in the way

Iona basically has NO positions. Gist probably handles the ball as much as McGill some games.. RELAX.. Cluess always finds the right matches.

I see Gist primarily as a freelance 2 and as a point in a pinch, filling in as needed when our true future point needs rest or experiences foul trouble.

Don’t forget bringing the ball upcourt against pressure. It’s one of his strengths. Also something Iona teams used to struggle with. Not this season.

FWIW, the athletics site still has him listed as a junior this year. I've heard it's highly likely that he will get an extra year of eligibility granted, but until there's been an official update from Iona athletics I don't think we should accept it as a guarantee.

Academic Junior Thanks for clearing it up Super. The site listed Risto as a redshirt frosh and Gist as a junior without saying redshirt so that’s where the confusion was coming from. He will be a major asset for the next two years.
