The Dukes hire Notre Dame Prep head coach as an assistant; Bona, Duquesne, and Bona announce OOC skeds; Temple gets good news about one of its signees; C. J. Anderson is ready to fill it up for Xavier; and more!
Not official yet, but just as Duquesne hired Notre Dame Prep’s head coach, Xavier will hire AAU New York Gauchos coach Emanuel “Book” Richardson as an assistant as well. The Gauchos won the Nike Peach Jam Invitational in North Augusta, SC, last weekend.
Every other school has news except us. It must be nice to be finish with recruiting for next year and started on 2008. Getting the schedule out for everyone, etc. I wish we would announce some good news.

Our schedule looks pretty solid, i don’t think finalizing it will be any better, meaning the teams that will sell tickets is probably over with.
I am really worried about our recruting for 2008, i mean maybe we are fine and Utter and NinerReport just aren’t showing us, but I don’t know of the one guy that we are his “leader” for whatever that is worth.
Usually by this time, we are hearing names of players that we are leading or have a good shot at to commit. This is the first time that I remember that we arenot hearing anything positive in our recruiting. Hope something happens soon.

Well, what Gill said… Recruits are a little scarce when the coach doesn’t even know where he will be in 2008.

We don’t need or have room for a whole lot. SG and a PF is about all. Usually the info comes from insider info. Not much floating around. I’d say we’re in pretty good with Gabriel. Would be nice if Jim Utter could get a list of guys.

Also would be nice if Jim could get the third and final piece of what our A-10 home-and-homes are too!

Yeah, we need to keep that in mind. We lose Leemire and Phaler. It’s not like we are losing 3 starters and a couple key bench players. We will be OK. We wont land any super studs in our 08 class, but if we get a couple solid players, we will be fine in 08/09 based on what we have returning that year.
Dukes sure getting a lot of press this week. Coach Everhart has them in the classroom prior to preparing for a trip to Canada to play four games in early September. I’m sure he’s ready to finally have Shawn James, Kojo Mensah, and Stuard Baldonado on the court in Duquesne unis as they prepare for 07-08.
