Big East 2024 -25 Results

Can someone with greater insight than I explain what this might refer to? Is it recruiting battles? Is it scheduling? It seems like McD is being pretty specific about 'guidance' from Wright, but I don't know what he would be referring to.

My guess would be referring to non conference scheduling. In the early years The league got off to a strong start non conference , which led to lots of Tournament Bids. Nova had few classic cupcakes, cause they always  have their traditional Big 5 rivalry games factored into the mix  . Other teams in the league loaded up on quality games as well and won their fair share of them

Not a big loss for English Enterprises

Not a big loss for English Enterprises

He averaged 18 minutes a game on their foreign tour and was one of four guys on their roster who could conceivably play the 5. The other three:

1. Was an All-A10 player for a meh George Mason team (Oduro)
2. Averaged 6.5 mpg for the Friars last season (Castro)
3. Is a freshman who was ranked outside the top 100 in the 2024 class, reclassed he's likely more like a sub 200 recruit. He also committed TODAY and has not had any practice time with the squad. (DeLaurier)

It is a significant loss. Not a crippling one but he was going to get plenty of minutes this season. The main issue is that this likely means Oduro playing the 5 a lot more than the 4 where he's probably a better fit at the Big East level. This has a domino effect with Hopkins who will now need to spend more time at the 4 instead of at the 3 where he can physically dominate most wings in the BEast. McNair gave them 15-20 minutes a game where Hopkins and Oduro could play at their ideal positions. I don't think Castro or DeLaurier can replicate that.

Last year, the Big East schedule came out the Friday of Labor Day week. I wonder if we'll get this season's schedule tomorrow.

Rothstein tweeted a couple days ago that it'll be announced within the next 2 weeks. Pretty vague and a large timeline but that's what he said

I think English Inc. sounds better when said aloud.

That's basically the "sources say what has always happened will happen again." You don't need sources to say that.

Hate to see these things happen. Hopefully, the next surgery will go better.

I don't.  Hope he's out all year

I can't wish ill health on a kid just because he wears a different jersey.   I hope he recovers completely and lives a full, pain-free life.

Bluejays non conference not as tough as MU. Will give them time to adjust to roster changes.
