Subject: Is it true we lost a recruit to Gadner-Webb?

"Siddle averaged 21.0 points per game as a junior under Coach John Harder at Eden Morehead and 19.0 points per outing as a sophomore. The floor general chose Gardner-Webb over South Alabama, Fordham and Duquesne."

Like Kevin Anderson, Siddle, who is originally from North Carolina, played this year with Hargrave Military Academy. He is a quick 5-11 point guard who can score, and is a good student, having been recently named to the Hargrave "Commendation List" (for cadets with GPAs of 3.3 or higher). Can't speak for whether he was an A-10 caliber player, but apparently a smart young man who, I'm sure, chose a school he was comfortable with. Yet one more positive indication of the kind of student-athlete Whittenburg has been seeking for Fordham, much to his credit. When do we get his contract extension done?

- If he played considerable mintes for the #2 Prep team in the country (where signee Devine could barely get off the bench) got to believe he is A-10 caliber. Question is did we stop recruiting him or did he really pick G-Web over us? (NT) -- DebataRam, Fri April 15, 2005 13:09:58
  - It's possible, but there are two things to consider. First off, just because the paper claimed that Gardner-Webb beat those three schools out, each of the three may not have offered him a scholarship, but may have just shown some degree of interest. On the other hand, if we did indeed get beat, it was with two other similar caliber programs. Not that it looks good, but.. (NT) -- Ramfan, Fri April 15, 2005 19:50:54
    - Also, Duquesne had gotten a commitment from another point guard (Aaron Jackson) within the last two weeks. (NT) -- Ramfan, Fri April 15, 2005 19:54:17
