Oh hey, Will started another thread.

Hey wait, you're not me!

 

[WI.Ram10]

I’m excited. Starting fresh. A whole new world of expectations. Can’t wait to see the team he puts together year. Welcome coach

I'm just dipping my toes in, hoping this turns into a thousand page monster I can put on my tombstone. I can't handle game thread responsibility.

Hard nosed Philly guys coaching a new version of the Broad Street Bullies?

Another bit of news: that student manager at UVA deleted the tweet about Theus and Burgess going to UVA with Odom. (I take responsibility for amplifying it.)

So imagine a staff of Phil Jr (HC), Phil Sr (GM), Theus (Assoc HC), Burgess, Rozzell, and Jimmy Martelli (assistants). Sounds good to me...if we could get Rozzell and Jimmy back.

Yeah I'm guessing Thues and Burg are back. Would be a little surprised if B-roz and Jimmy come over.

Yeah I'm thinking this might be a really good staff; need to keep Jennings as our PG. He brings the center(?) from Bryant? I think that guy was only a sophomore?


Willing to see what a real physical team here would look like.

 

[WI.Ram10]

Potential follow based on absolutely nothing other than they played for Bryant.

Barry Evans: 6’8 forward. 13.3 ppg, 6.8 boards. 37.5% from 3 on 100+ attempts. Former Bonnie’s player. Will be a senior . From Baltimore

Keyshawn Mitchell. 6’11 center. 8.5 ppg and 6.8 boards. From New York. Will be a junior.

The other major contributors were all seniors.

 

[LazyStegosaurus]

Feel free to pelt me with tomatoes...BUT

Any chance he sticks around a little longer due to the strong A10 family ties? Only like 27% joking...

 

[RamStrut]

I like the hire. Let’s rally behind him. He fits our culture. Love that this is a double hire with his Dad on board. I could see him winning here and also staying here awhile.

Looking at Bryants roster. Here's my prediction.

Martelli is going to bring Favour Aire, Keyshawn Mitchell and Conner Withers with him to VCU.

Aire 6'11 was a Rhoades offer when ended up Penn state for a year. He redshirted this year and put on muscle. He's a former 4* out of Maryland. Good shot blocker..Raw offensively


Keyshawn Mitchell is a 6'11 point forward. Really good handles and vision. Also Rhoades offer.

Connor Withers is from Virginia and played a good amt forBryantt..can shoot the ball.

Welcome, Coach Martelli!

I really felt for Theus. 3rd assistant has to be the most tenuous position on the whole staff, and with Aldrich coming on board, Darius was the odd man out in C'ville. If he stays in Richmond, and gets a whole 'nother network to leverage, that would be awesome.
