Any Basketball recruiting updates?
Not at the moment.
I haven't talked to Dave since the last story ran on the incoming recruits. With no scholarships to offer next year (unless some one leaves) they are looking at young players.
I find it funny that the only comment on the Commissioner cup story is about the team that did the least to win the men's and overall- as far as points go. Although I didnt think to comment till then either.
I'm not sure how much many of you know about the award, but it's pretty amazing to win it. Now take it a step further, Monmouth has won the is award 4 straight years and a total of six. Kudos to all of the student athletes and coaches who prepare them every year.
To HFT: I'm really not sure what the other poster was talking about.
Anyway, it is a significant accomplishment that tends to fly under the public radar.
Presumably MU can use it and the upcoming new arena to further recruiting....
You get points towards the commissioner's cup based on where your team finishes in the regular season (for sports except Golf and Tennis i believe), so i think the other poster meant that Men's hoops brought in a minimal number of points THIS year- which they found funny because the only comment on the CC was about men's hoops.
