I hope DW can find one of those diamonds in the rough. Anderson and Stout certainly weren't too shabby for us this year. -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

In reply to: bfg 's message, "generally, yes, the top talent signs in the fall but there are alot of players who fall through the cracks and don't sign until the spring. Marcus Stout and Kevin Anderson signed w/ us last spring and they proved to be solid players. I think DW is one of those coaches who knows where to find the "tweeners" -- players who could play in the A-10 but go to the MAAC. Players like Jason Wingate, Peter Mulligan, and Keydren Clark. I think those are the types of players than DW can look to sign in the spring. Based on the record to date, I'm pretty optimistic that we'll sign a player who will help us next year and thereafter." on Mon March 28, 2005 13:15:03

Austrie fits the bill perfectly. He's explosive and can play the 1 or 2. Lowe did not fit the bill. Only a fair outside shooter and not really explosive. But very, very steady and a heady player with excellent defensive ability. (NT) -- Rambacker, Mon March 28, 2005 13:33:27
- What is the final date players can sign in the spring? (NT) -- Air Hej '02, Mon March 28, 2005 13:53:10
  - I think the spring signing period ends on 5/15. A player can still sign an LOI after that but it is not binding. (NT) -- bfg, Mon March 28, 2005 14:00:13
    - From the Middletown Press article of March 23: Austrie will make an official two-night visit to Providence on Monday.It’s believed that Austrie would get a chance to play right away with the Friars... (http://www.zwire.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=14201387&BRD=1645&PAG=461&dept_id=10856&rfi=8). His two day official visit begins today at Providence, let's hope DW impressed him sufficiently to have him postpone a decision until we have had a chance to schedule a visit to Rose Hill. I fear the worst though, as someone previously indicated that Providence all but had this kid locked up. By the way, we aren't even mentioned in that article.

      - On a side note, the Middletown Press is one of the worst newspapers in the country. (NT) -- Air Hej '02, Mon March 28, 2005 15:01:37
        I heard russell robinson is transferring from kansas, a lock. (NT) -- Can's Azz, Tue March 29, 2005 00:36:40
        I actually read today that he promised Coach Self he was going back to KU next season. I think he would be unwise to transfer given all the players they are losing, he'll most definitely see loads of playing time next season with Miles and Langford gone.
