I know this comes off as disrespectful- but at 75 years old( Class of 69)- I have the right to be disrespectful 🤔🤔🤔 I’m sure Ellen Reilly means well, but if she had a clue , she would have given us a name already Please forgive me,for my skepticism here you can be as skeptical as you want, but no she wouldn't have. i'm sure she was asked to keep that quiet until the right time. this is a different situation than it was with kahlil brantley. Remember the school can't 'talk' about a player they signed until said person is actually signed.

Then- IMO- she shouldn’t have put it out there- until she was able to give a name..What do U gain by putting it out there without a name?

What do U gain by putting it out there without a name? she let a long-suffering fan base know that dunph is one step closer to putting together a competitive roster, giving them some hope about the future of the program.

I’m a LONGER SUFFERING , fanbase then U! - and I respectfully disagree with your premise. In today’s transfer portal world- u must wait until it’s definite Also, u do not have to tell me about Dunph working hard- I sat next to him min class for 4 years+ played pickup ball with him in Herman Hall- so I know the man+ I know how hard he is working, under very difficult circumstances!

Interesting addition, seems the Bonnies were taking a look at him too. Fits the bill of what others have said.
Will have to dig for some info around him.

Screams Davidson type of player. Looks like that account is trying to give the credit to Joe Mihalich which makes sense.
Love his skillset.

So what's the roster look like now? Still waiting for Jig? Done with recruiting for the upcoming season?
I'd like to see a traditional high school recruit or two.

Looks pretty skilled and can go left or right. He's a natural left-hander and that should be an advantage. I hope he's utilized well. We could definitely use the size.

If this is true- great get for Dunph- BUT- I will hold back with the High Fives, until it’s official. We have been burned too many times

PG - Brantley SG - Nickleberry SG - Marrero SG - Shepherd SG - Gill SF - Fosseyni Drame SF - Hassan Drame C - Mamadou Doucoure C - Rokas Jocius
So we have 9 scholarship players. McFarlane and Brickus are the only two remaining in the portal. No idea if McFarlane returns but have heard that Brickus is not coming back.
So we probably need another PG, wing and a forward. Still some interesting names out there...

Who knows how many they will win, teams still incomplete.
Also, looks like Rokas Jocius commitment has been confirmed by Eurohoops. Nice to beat the Bonnies on a recruit.

Anyone else thinking about Monty Python's Life of Brian when they see Rokas (pronounced Rocus) Jocius in print?

Philly Native Anquan Hill from FDU has entered the portal today. NEC rookie of the year.
Dunphy and staff got to be all over this.

Maybe they are but are we clamoring for guys that averaged almost 8 and 5 for a 4-22 Fairleigh Dickinson team? Anquan really developed over the season in his freshmen campaign, he had a couple A10 offers out of HS and would be solid that would contribute in the our rotation. By the time the season ended, he was averaging around 13 points a game and shooting efficiently aka why he was NEC rookie of the year. He also would fill a real need given our roster right now and he seems to have a lot of upside. I don't know about clamoring but it makes a lot of sense.
