Re: Potential Transfer Target

Does UD have the NIL money that would be necessary for this kind of move? Villanova had the money to get him to move there from Kentucky. Can't imagine he is not looking for a similar kind of deal. Schools like UD can only truly compete in the portal if they also have the necessary NIL money to go ...

Re: Potential Transfer Target

Lance Ware 6-9 235 spent 3 years at Kentucky and last year at Villanova. Only averaged 9.6 mpg over 4 years but has played in a lot of games. Probably wishful thinking on my part but he would no doubt play more than 10 mpg at UD. Does UD have the NIL money that would be necessary for this kind of m...

Re: tresolini's view of CUSA challenges for UD

The list in Tresolini's article is described as follows:

"In this list, we rank Delaware teams by the degree of difficulty they potentially face -- No. 1 being the least daunting and No. 13 the most -- in moving to CUSA and which teams may be most suited to excel sooner"

Re: women v Drexel this evening

Now 5 turnovers in less than five minutes. Whatever the world record is for TOs, it may be in danger.

Re: Stony Brook II

IMHO, the recruitment priority for next year should focus on point guards who can shoot the three and big men who can defend well and grab rebounds. Too often, the current team has to play one-on-one basketball because of the lack of a true distributor at the point position. The portal is where pla...

Re: UMass to the MAC

Why would Western Kentucky want to leave CUSA when it is, according to some posters, a far superior conference to the MAC? Asking for a friend.

Re: Charleston

It never ceases to amaze me how many Delaware fans, alum, and supporters are just so willing to make excuses and accept mediocrity when it comes to UD Athletics…Football and Basketball, in particular. It feels like Chrissi and the current admin are trying to breakthrough that mindset, but it won’t ...

Re: women now

Not nice to say, I know, but some of these turnovers, bad passes, etc. border on the comedic. Its ok to be honest its the college level and i cant believe some of the stuff I see. Over the years this is definitely one of the fundamentaly worst I have seen. What is also bothersome is that the coach ...

Re: William & Mary II

The Hens are 2nd in the CAA in both Assists and A/T ratio Yeah, they have been playing very well, but you know that our coach does not get excited enough, just stands there with his arms folded, hasn't thrown a chair across the court, didn't bring in more than 6 transfers, etc. etc. :roll: :roll: :...

Re: women now

The circus that WBB appears to be continues at Monmouth ( a better team). Shooting 35% from the floor and 40% from the foul line in 1st half. Add in the bewildering substitutions by the coach and it isn't varsity level basketball.
