Jones is goneJones think would / could be bench piece. Good Jones plays, bad Jones sits.
Don’t see Posh ok with that

Is Posh really 20 pounds overweight? Do we know he didn’t attend classes?20 pound weight loss and attending 3 classes out of 4 offer
Yes with the weight. No idea with the classes.Is Posh really 20 pounds overweight? Do we know he didn’t attend classes?
Ok 10 poundsIs Posh really 20 pounds overweight? Do we know he didn’t attend classes?
Yes and yes and not just Posh but a couple of other players that CMA disciplined during the season. Now CMA being made the bad guy because of it and will be part of the arbitration discussions.Is Posh really 20 pounds overweight? Do we know he didn’t attend classes?
Players are in Taffner every day and nothing prevents them from informal workouts and shoot around.Here is a question:
this time of year, is StJ’s able to conduct informal practices, and “shoot around a” where CRP and his staff can watch and evaluate the players remaining on the StJ’s roster ?
You have inside info about Posh missing classes or just speculation?Yes and yes and not just Posh but a couple of other players that CMA disciplined during the season. Now CMA being made the bad guy because of it and will be part of the arbitration discussions.
One thing Pitino has learned from experience is never let players damage your cred and make sure the fingerprints lead to an assistant (T.J.? Shoes?).
Most players miss classes during the season for "basketball" reasons. I'm not sure if was ever discussed on any thread here but during the season certain players were either not played (coaches decision and team rules) or barely played. Cutting classes is usually the main reason. Grad assistants are usually the snitches in these cases.You have inside info about Posh missing classes or just speculation?
Only the Rick, like the Shadow, knows for sure. Lol.Jones is gone
Ok, so you’re speculating. Posh was not suspended any games this year.Most players miss classes during the season for "basketball" reasons.

As we all know, this issue is one of the flimsy reasons for CMA's termination for cause.
No one said Posh was suspended as far I know. I think we all hope he returns rehabilitated from a technically down season to become our Marqkuis Nowell. Although I don't think he will ever shoot as well but we can hope.Ok, so you’re speculating. Posh was not suspended any games this year.
In addition to having talent, he is close to Soriano. The only player Pitino had to re-recruit was Soriano….Jones is gone
Soriano became one of the best big men in the ncaa this past season. In step with guys like Sanogo of UConn if not better. Add Rick Pitino and a whole bunch of new talent and special things can happen. Soriano’s impact this past season as well as next can’t be understated. I don’t think he’s touched his potential yet. He needs to get into even better shape and develop at both ends to become dominant. He can do that.In addition to having talent, he is close to Soriano.

i remember many a poster knocking Soriano his first season at SJU. Too slow, not enough muscle , should have stayed at Fordham, over his head , etc, etc. This staff will work with each member of the team like never before over the next 8 months to get them into better shape and better player development. Who else will have a remarkable improvement remains to be seen, but I have no doubt there will be improvement.Soriano became one of the best big men in the ncaa this past season.

I liked Soriano from the start. You could see that he was a better player than his body was allowing. I think it’s still the case, plus he needs to learn more post moves at both ends to be really dominant. Ricky P chose a good guy to build around. Soriano will be a force if surrounded by right talent and in a new system under Pitino.So

I will never forget the Billy Donovan transformation, totally remarkable.
What is your basis for assuming David Jones is gone?Well if posh wasn’t suspended and you have no inside info then what is your basis for speculating that he cut classes?
