Early word out of Queens this spring continues to be about Marcus LoVett. Think a lefty Marcus Hatten. Effortless scorer. Shifty PG. #sjubb
 
Am I correct-If CJ leaves, we will have 2 scholarships available?

With CJ leaving, I believe that we have 3 scholarships available

Returning scholarship players:

G - LoVett, Ponds, Mussini, Ellison
F - Ahmed, Freudenberg, Yakwe, Williams
C - Sima, Owens

That's 10 scholarship players. Am I missing somebody?
 
I didn't see enough of Williams but if we could just get a big body who could play a little D and score just a little.... we would be young but interesting....
 
Possibly looking at two "sit out" transfers if recruitment goes well & wonder if fifth year player is still in cards. We'll see.
 
I think it's possible Williams stays and takes up a scholarship, but I fear we'll never see him take the floor.

Our SFs both seem to be good rebounders, so they'll be pulling double duty at PF when Yakwe needs a breather. This is assuming we don;'t find a big body for this coming season.

I like the idea of Antetokounmpo's length, but boards don't look like they'll be plentiful for him for the next two seasons

If Matt lands two sit out transfers, we will not have glaring needs for 17 in my opinion. 2018 prospects seem great with guys like Bol, the two kids from OSNA & other solid players on radar screen. We'll see, things can change quickly.

We could benefit from fifth year interior player, but suspect that is a challenge.
 
Per Rothstein;

St. John's will host Binghamton as part of its 16-17 non-conference schedule, source told @CBSSports. #sjubb

They were only 8-22 last year, 5-11 in America East. Only common opponent with us was UMBC (same league), who they beat by 9 at home, and lost to in overtime on the road.

Their whole team should be back though, since they had no seniors on this past year's roster.

Maybe that's because i am a wise ass at least when it comes to your post. You say You are counting Kostas which leaves two openings which the "in the know" posters have said will be sit out transfers so I took your post as being more than a little bit greedy. BTW nice to see you have a sense of humor.
