Looking at Myles Thompson’s record at Saint Francis, I couldn’t find stats for the 2022-2023 season. I did find an article that talked about senior night that noted the Thompson has been dealing with a groin injury and that may be that he didn’t play this year.

I can’t remember 100% but I believe Blocker and Miles Rose were teammates at Bishop Kearney in Roch before each bolted for prep schools That sounds right to me. That being said, Blockers stats at UB weren’t great, I don’t see him moving up conferences.

Jalen Pickett might be the best player to audition in the Reilly Center and Bona decided to pass. He is most likely Schmidt’s biggest mistake on a recruit. — Yesterday announcers were saying #19 rank Indiana could not stop Jalen Pickett. — Pickett scored 28 points leading Penn State to the championship game in the Big 10 against #5 ranked Purdue. — I watched Jalen Pickett’s audition in the Reilly Center. He was a friend and a teammate of Dom Welch at Spire. Rumor was Schmidt gave audition to Pickett as a favor to Dom. — Pickett had an audition with 2 other recruits; Melkisedek Moreaux (who we knew as Melki) and Anthony Roberts. Schmidt signed Melki. Roberts signed with Kent State, but would later transfer to Bona. Schmidt passed on Pickett. To be fair to Schmidt, Pickett didn’t standout. I thought Anthony Roberts looked the best of the 3. — At Spire Dom was the star of the team averaging 18 points a game. Pickett averaged just 14. — Pickett’s 15.3 ppg career scoring average is higher than his average at Spire. Pickett is Penn State’s leading scorer at 17.8 ppg. www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/jalen-pickett-1.htmlsienasaints.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/jalen-pickett/7936

Has Schmidt had a guy transfer down that was good? Maurice "Greese" Thomas would be my choice as Schmidt's best "transfer down recruit". Greese had talent, but his behavior became an issue with his playing time. In Greese only season at Bona, Chris Matthews had more than double his PT (1,037 minutes to 514). Agree with Agoo, it is surprising Schmidt's lack of success with "transfer down" recruits. Also Chris Matthews and Greese played during Schmidt's 2nd year at Bona. Schmidt has a lot more success with "transfer up recruits" like Adaway, Matt Mobley and Eric Mosley. Has Bona ever had a star player that "transfer down"? Rich McCormick (transfer from Marquette) is the only "trade down recruit" I can think of becoming one of the stars on his team. www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/st-bonaventure/men/2009.htmlwww.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/rich-mccormick-1.html

Speaking of that, what’s up with SUNY Amherst dismissing Whitesell? Who do they think they are that 70-49 isn’t good enough?
I think we should bring him in an assistant, the head coaching experience and recruiting experience as a top assistant in our very conference could be an asset
