I'm sorry that your New England recruiting agenda is not receiving the attention you believe it deserves.

I don't know that there is roster space for another 6' PG.

It wouldn't happen anyway; the fact that Jorgenson decommitted after Missouri signed another PG for 2013 leads me to think he's concerned about PT. BC already has a rotation of four in the backcourt, including two PGs and one combo guard; five would definitely be a crowd. I expect BC to add another guard in 2014, but definitely not in 2013.

Does Daniels transferring put Jorgenson back into the picture?

All of these things that happen – they’re all part of growing the program. I think the guys are going to miss him. He’s a great kid and he was a great member of our program. We’re a tight knit family. I think in that part we’re still trying to get used to him not being here. We’ll get over it, fortunately – or unfortunately depending on what way you want to look at it. I think we’ll be a good basketball team. I’m real confident in the guys that are playing. Going forward you’ve obviously got to make sure you get another guy that can handle the ball and I think we’ll do that over the next couple recruiting classes.

I'll wait until I hear it, but there's definitely a possibility.

UPDATE: This pretty much confirms it:

MattTheEagle {l Wrote}:I hope we are done with this class. I think Owens fills a vital piece of the BC squad. I also think he will excel with Donahue and I like him better than several of the other players we were looking at.

Although our depth is lacking at PF and C, I am not too concerned. Clifford and Anderson have the potential to be stars in the ACC and even with Donahue's up-tempo offense, I have no doubt they will be able to play a good 30-35 minutes. By 2013 Caudill and Odio should be serviceable for some minutes to give our guys some rest. We could also give Anderson or Clifford rest by using lineups by temporarily moving Owens to the 4 and playing Dragicivich at the 3. I really don't think size is that big of an issue with two true centers, a true PF (Anderson), an athletic swing forward (Owens) and a couple other players who can play the 3 (Heckmann and Dragicevich). Not to mention it seems like Donahue likes playing fast 3-guard lineups. Also, if Odio is able to contribute at all, it is certainly an added bonus.

If we use one of our remaining 2 scholarships in 2013, we better be confident that the player is good enough to hang with the ACC's best. BC is showing serious interest in 2013 Junior Etou who would be a great pick up but we may be too behind in his recruitment.

I fucking hate any discussion over preserving schollies for next year's class. Kids leave every freaking year. Odio and Caudill are getting to the up-or-out stages of their career. BC sits back... passes on 4s... ever chasing the supposed awesome class of next year where we are eternally doing much better with. Then, Caudill doesn't get better and Odio transfers to see more playing time. And, suddenly, everyone is surprised and we go around offering any Cornell-level player who is taller than 6'6" in the hopes that one of these stiffs won't be truly terrible. Is Spazoo is Don's recruiting coordinator.

Fun fact: BC is 2-0 against Indiana in the NCAA tourney. BC also beat Indiana in their last encounter two years ago in the ACC/Big 10 challenge.

No surprise: as Vonleh himself noted, Indiana has pursued him harder than anyone else, and the fans began chanting "we want Noah" when he appeared at courtside for Indiana's home opener Friday. That sort of all-out recruiting by a big-name program is hard to resist. In any case, I'm relieved that Vonleh will be far away from BC; he's not a player I'd care to see at the opposite end of the court, and he should be collecting big bucks in the NBA long before BC plays Indiana again.

1994 sweet sixteen. when was the other time in the dance? Wasn't the elder Knight also the coach of TEX TECH when we beat them in the tourney a 5-6 years ago?

I think it was '95 Scoonie's first year. I want to say we beat Indiana in the first round and then lost to Stephon Marbury's Georgia Tech team in round 2.

And yes, we beat TT with Knight as the coach.

1996, but yes. The Indiana win was an upset.
