No room for him in Omaha. Graded as a point guard out of HS. So just what we needed.

Pikaar?

I have to believe academics had to play in here and with his destination. I think certain people here on the board seem to know but they just aren't saying. Multiple posters here were SURE he was gone before the season was even over. It would be interesting to know why.

Do we get 2 years of him or 1? Not sure of being at the D2 (at the time he was there) changes the covid year rule etc..Or I guess as a junior he didn't play in the covid year unless he missed a season somewhere.

Swope and Jimmer with Larry and Thames behind them is a winning collection of scoring 2/3 guards that should do well in the A10. Avila and I guess Pikaar at the 4/5 with depth needing to come. But where is the PG...this car needs a driver. I wish Medley would have hung around. I know the thinking is now we can do better, hopefully that is true. Either way this is a big get and Coach is off to a nice start.

Someone call Dr. C

Happy that Tate is back in some capacity

Zyree had an offer from SLU per some websites. Was that from Ford? And thats good if Josh is on them, you have that confirmed?

Are we going to lose him with Tate gone? Anyone know whats going on with his recruitment. 3 star or not it would be good to have him on board.

Indeed. What does it take to bring parker back? Money? Or were there academic issues?

Goodwin, Yuri, Hargrove and possibly Perkins never play here without Tate. Not really bench players.

I was waiting to hear this news. Awesome

I think not bringing back Corey Tate is going to hurt local recruiting. I was hoping he would be back since he was at the presser but it seems not to be.

Of course...and I love Gladiator Movies.

And he’s the copilot

I liked what Josh had to say. But man were the media questions laughable. BenFred asking about "Joy". Stu asking about dress code. Some of the old timer season ticket holders asked better questions than the PD media guys. If Jimmer was there, get him back

Welcome Josh. Hire a defensive specialist to sit on the bench with you and call Jimmerson along with your players. Let’s get to the tournament next year. I was skeptical of some things but he’s got my support until he gives me a reason to feel otherwise. Go Bills and congrats ladies. Loved every minute of that today

I hope Rebecca stays. She’s gonna get offers now. What a game from courtside. I talked to her after the game and told her that she did an amazing coaching job these past two postseasons. We should’ve just given her the men’s job. Made some history.

Thanks Cheeseman. I guess May got the womens hire right. Rebecca has been a revelation.

I am not a hater of this likely new coach. I’m just guarded about it. I don’t trust Chris May’s decisions and I feel Schertzs style might not fit our league. And I think an actual search instead of just having 1 candidate might have been a better path. If he does well I will be among the first to praise him.

Thats valid. I am a defense first coach and I have an assistant who is almost a football style offensive coordinator. I hope he does find that person for defense because I don't think they are on the Sycamore staff with him right now

I agree that is not a lateral move...thats silly. I just have issues with the coaching style and philosophy. Clearly an upgrade.

Before anyone attacks me as not being a fan, I will be sitting court side at the women's game saturday so feel free to come visit. Ill wear a purple hat or something so you can find me. We all know the A10 fancies itself as the little Big East. Its a rough and tumble grind it out league for the most part. Finesse offense teams that don't guard and can't win ugly don't do well in the A10. Every loss Indiana State had they either shot horrible for the game or fell into a funk in a bad spot like tonight and the 2 drake losses. Schertz showed no ability to get his team to gut it out in those scenarios and figure out how to win without shots falling. And ok he hung 100 on Utah but gave up 90.... It just isn't a style I see working well. And as mentioned above, if he does have any success he will just leave probably. We need to find a legacy coach.

I mean I do coach kids but that’s not the point. You draw all over your board to just inbound and jack a 3? Plus allow a 9-0 run to lose basically in a home game. Defense is not a strong point with this coach. Maybe he’s innovative on offense but he sure wasn’t in the most critical moment.

Pretty bad end of game management. Why call a time out to not have a play. I hope he learns from that if he’s coming here
