Has anyone heard, will another roster player opt to enter Portal as deadline approaches? We sure could use a monster on the boards.

Thanks Sarge!

Is Boser a guy we’ve been in touch with? Don’t we need an animal on the boards too? I’m still hopeful we squeeze in yet another portal guy beside the stretch 4.

And, would the NIL still b available to Myles or could it b parceled out to others? I’m kind of a believer if they put their name in the Portal - you’ve shown me where your heart is. Move on. Myles will get a roster spot for sure BUT he was a Featured guy here.

This is an example of a good young man who appreciates ISU, Pedon and getting minutes.

Well there you go - 50% have no interest in donating but we complain about shortcomings of program. Yes, every time we turn around someone is asking for dough. 60% of US struggles to get ahead while too many are poverty stricken. Not saying $309 is doable for all but………goodness $26/mo to...

Chase now gets the minutes. He’s truly big man on campus.

Agreed!

But he could Score when the rest of the team couldn’t get their shots. Dribble drive pull ups are a Great Skill. Just think if Banks could develop that ……..

And Darius was NOT one of my selections to leave. Hmmm, guess I gotta b patient 🤷‍♂️ I wish DB the Best and Thanks for carrying the load in many stretches of games.

I’d have mixed feelings about losing Darius - he’s definitely not my first or second guy on the roster to replace. He’s a real gentleman- I had the feeling he really like Pedon but the dynamics of the team changed when he missed time w/injury.

Anyone - is this the PG of our future? I’ve never heard the locals go crazy over this guy …… he’s got great size along with being named All State and Pantagraph POY. And, could he take over for Banks during mid conference? Right in our backyard so what r the scouting reviews?

I believes Pedon’s style is initially to sit a guy down and say, “ we must recruit over you cause we need more scoring from your position. In all likelihood you’ll be planted at the far end of the bench and get about 3.5 minutes per month.” In his world that means time to drive on while he...

Tyler will b joining DePaul staff as Director of Basketball Ops effective 4/1. Pedon was very supportive of Hicks advancing his career to a FT position with Blue Demons. U got yourself a strong coaching network and fraternity between Birds and Blue Demons.

That’s a good article Sarge - thanks. I tend to forget about the fine reporting at the Vidette.

I’m hoping and guessing that no key guys leave program and Pedon’s management style. I am hoping Coach is very direct bout some leaving - he’s in the role to make that happen for Success and moving us to Top 4 in MVC. Pedon is in Yr 3 and has no excuses as to what skill is needed to compete...

Here’s my read on Banks. Pretty good handles as stats show. Never gonna b a marksman from 3. He can drive and that’s a real plus but in off season he’s got to Develop a pull up J from 10’. The majority of his turns r when he gets in the trees and tangled up - pull up and hit the short...

The one thing I look forward to at the end of our season is to get input from you all on what we need and who may depart the roster.

I hope for a great contest and fingers crossed that our D will respond to backdoor cuts from 1st contest. BU is very good as their athleticism seems superior especially the 2 bigs with their length. I do expect we'll see the grit and fight from our guys so here's to hoping we can pull off...

Great win. All we have to do is utilize crisp passing against press and we’ll b fine. Banks has been out of sync for majority of 2024 - thought he was mentally tougher than he’s showing. I still believe in him but for Gosh sakes battle thru it. JK should run for City Council, Water...
