If you want to kill HS recruiting, tell mom & dad their son’s scholarship is only conditional, based on his on court performance, playing time or health. If a HS recruit takes care of his business in the classroom, in the locker room (team rules) and reps UD positively in the community, he leav...

HOW THE HECK did we go from a conversation that the student-athletes deserved a share of the massive media money being paid for the broadcast rights of the games they play in, to a NIL system that asks donors to support paying student-athletes. Asking for a friend. Pretty funny, isn’t it? Those who...

https://temple-news.com/the-outcome-is-the-outcome-temple-athletics-struggles-to-financially-adapt/ Interesting article. Thanks for posting Bobby. I suspect raising significant NIL money year in and year out will be a struggle for most G5 schools. I'm sure a few will be carried by a handful of suga...

The CAA Championship Bracket that I have shows UD-Hofstra winner playing the Stony Brook-Drexel game winner on Monday night at 8:30 PM on CBS Sports Network.

LI Lax, Thanks again for your fine scouting report for Monmouth. Any idea how long UD will be with out Cam Acchione and Drew Lenkaitis? I have no idea. Cam could be back this week. No idea what his injury was last week. He played the entire game against Penn, so I assume he was injured in practice....

Another thing that gets my goat is the university is doing nothing to try to grow the fan base for basketball or keep the interest do we have come tournament time?I am on the mailing list for Drexel because I bought tickets from them in the past. For $45 you can get a ticket and a bus to and from t...

The UD Softball Stadium now has lights, but still a dirt and grass field. I seem to remember reading about this sometime ago but my searches for any articles about this have been fruitless. I also thought that the UD Softball diamond was going to get at least a partially synthetic turf field as well...

Stony's announcers on FloSports webcast made a point that (unusually) it was UD's third game in 6 days implyng that UD may be fatigued. UD played 3 games in 6 days because the Home game vs. Drexel was whatever reason plyaed on Monday night instead of on Sat.as usual. I don't know when UD bussed to S...

The ground balls, clearing efforts and face offs really worked to keep the Hens down. Thankfully, turnovers were high for UM as well as UD. The high line UM put at midfield to challenge the Hens’ clearing efforts was pretty effective. The Hens seemed to be surprised by it and not sure how to counte...

Wasn't Velasquez supposed to be pitching for UD this season? Als weren't there a couple other Hens who were injured who also are/were expected back this season?

LI Lax, Thanks for the always insightful scouting report. How good are the UM Goalies?

Does MI even try to recruit HS players anymore or is it 100% portal? Well MI signed Houser out of HS for next season and has at least tow offers that we know of to HS players for next season. Macon Emory is the one signed. They have offered Justin Houser, Tyler’s younger brother, who’s 7’0” and cur...

I was told relatively recently from a source that I respect and who should be in a position to know that when UD was considering its move to FBS UD approached the MAC and was told that the MAC had no interest in adding UD. When I asked why, this source said that they did not know. I would appreciate...

The Minutemen not having to fill a 12 game schedule as an independent will free up other eastern seaboard schools to consider home-home contracts with the Hens. Very good point, sir. Not shocked UMass is moving back to the MAC but with all sports this time. Travel would be much the same in CUSA: a ...
