How good do people expect Nova to be this year?

proably 15th to 25th best. justin moore likely out all year. superstar frosh cam whitmore had surgery on his fingwr this week and likely out 4 to 8 weeks. they lots of talent, just very young.

Moore is targeting being back for Big East play. Not sure if that's going to happen, but that's what he's saying publicly.

I think 'Nova is one of the top contenders for the league this year. The biggest question will be their usual strength of point guard play. My guess is top-3 in the league and I think your 15-25 estimate is probably about right.

Or could we be underestimating how big of a loss Wright will be Brew?

In the long term I think he could be, but in the short term I think they'll be okay. It's not like a K to Scheyer situation where it's almost all new freshmen. This roster has continuity and knows the system going in. I think Nova is set up to be an easier program to get up and running initially, but sustaining it will be hard work and where we see how good Neptune really is.

I am. Working on non-con at the moment, but I've been busier than usual for fall. Just about done with our November opponents, should start publishing soon.

Early Desmond Claude hype from national media guys is weird. He is a nice player. I guess he has more of an NBA body, and he had a Louisville and KU offer. But it is just something surprising.

A lot of us appreciate the work you do on this.

He looked pretty good in the team scrimmage last Friday.
Of course I may be biased because he's from New Haven, CT.

Free Zach Mantle?

According to my daughter the word on campus is Zach was suspended for failing a drug test.

My daughter is not surprised as all the Sophomore through Senior players live on the first floor of her apartment building and the hallway eternally smells of weed.  The running joke is "it's only the walk-ons."
