I would agree that the investigation probably had some impact on recruiting.

But look at TOT's two recruiting classes prior to the investigation.

Todd
Maxwell
Bell

MVS
MOS

Todd and Maxwell are good MAAC players, but could any of the
other three be part of a 10-man rotation at Manhattan or Iona? Doubtful.

Maxwell and Todd would probably be starters on Iona and/or Manhattan, they are both all MAAC players. Todd is NOT having as a good of year as Burtt or Soliver so far, but he was the best player on the court on Tuesday night. The other 3 players would be part of the main rotation. MVS would be a great fit for Iona, and its hard to say how good MOS would have been this year.

The class that we really needed impact was from the players that did sign during the investigation.... Middleton and Oglesby.

Lets not go overboard on Iona's recruiting, as they had a great class 3 years ago, and they are now all seniors. Since then, their recruiting slipped to normal MAAC class. Gonzo has got some real good players, along with a lot of clunkers. But you can only play 5 players at a time, so it goes to show that you don't rate a recruiting class by its clunkers, but by its impact players. All schools have recruits that never live up to their potential.... even UCONN. The difference with UCONN and other big schools id that they just get rid of those players.

MOS will be one of the best players in the league next year. Bet on it.
