Can anyone provide some information regarding the 3-most important items regarding the team right now?
Lots of people give their "humble" opinions or rehash the same opinion of others...but is there any facts or rumors out there.....news from Spring weekend? sightings, etc...
By the way, when the current players are hosting a new prospect, is it appropriate to say hello and discretly ask who that big guy is? are the players approachable? especially at a social envirnoment as a club in town or in the dining Hall...I'd be disappointed if they were not!
- Last open "ship"? we had some "big-man" visitors the last weeks, any news or updates on how they went? are we close to making an announcement or are we being eliminated by the recruits we have targeted? Are there any additional names then the ones below?
-Lounceny Kaba -Frantz Dorsainvil -Stuard Baldonado
- Assisant Coaches? do we have any idea who Coach Sol has on his radar?
-Players leaving.....so who is the player who could be leaving? is this a rumor or does Bona Alum have any additional info to give?

I would agree that Williams would be the most likely to be bailing at this point. With Hawkins and the Aussie, I would hope that defection doesn't hurt quite as much as it could have. Morris is an important piece to the puzzle, so let's hope it's not him. Also, there is still the possibility that Foote receives one of the remaining ships, so we may still only be looking to add one player.
Would love to see a former player included in the new staff, along with someone more experienced in game management. A nice combination of Robert Cheeks (who better to work with the big men - he was fairly productive as a 6'6" center) and a former head coach who would be willing to accept an assistant position as a mentor type would be perfect in my mind. Are any of Sol's former bosses currently available?

Ugghh, it just feels like our situation becomes more and more diluted each day! God we are in dire need of some good news!
A walk on will now be the big man we so desperately need as our final scholarship? Robert Cheeks will get an audition as our new asst. coach?
I understand these are just suggestions but are we now at the point where we are starting to accept just about anything?

It is unlikely that Foote will receive the scholarship. Perry King, the other walk-on, is ahead of Foote in the (for lack of a better term) pecking-order and is much more deserving of the free ride.
Of course, neither of them will receive it if we can just find another player...

do you honestly think that they are going to give Perry King a scholarship? he was a walk-on after the season had already started, and for all purposes, it not very good from what I have seen in walking through the RC. Add to it that I don't believe he was even working out with the team this spring. I'm sure he's a nice kid and all, but why not save the scholarship for someone who might wanna transfer in at semester? Just a thought.

No I don't honestly think they will give King a scholarship, just saying that he is an option above Jeff Foote. Also, both walk-ons have been working out with the team this spring.
