Adonis De La Rosa,

Very odd. Hard to find a valid reason for no one from the staff making the trip up.

Lavin’s lazy…LOL!

Honestly he was probably too cheap to pay for the gas to travel to Albany.
 
Happy to finally have a true big. Not to be negative or anything because I like Adonis' game but we still need alot more upfront or else we will be in trouble. Regardless, glad he's coming to SJU and hopefully this will push the black cloud away for a little bit

@Ben_Baskin the thing that is a bit worrisome is it wasn't easy for him to say it. Didn't seem like he was 100% happy and convinced

Credited the fact that his brother will be there with him at school and also his relationship with Tony Chiles as factors. #sjubb

NY kid who wants to stay home = refreshing & long overdue

Just hoping that Rawle who was seated behind him wants to stay in the same way. All it takes is one to get the ball rolling.

Welcome ADR.

Now go take care of your academic house.

Don’t worry I don’t see how anyone could take your post as being negative.
 
STJ loses God'sGift but gains Adonis. Just saying it's a name trend at Taffner. ;)
 
I said over WEEK AGO THAT I AGREED WITH PAULTZ HIS KID WAS OURS. I ALSO FEEL COACH WILL BRINGS US MORE SURPRSES

ADR WECOLCOME I am still 100% behind the coach and staff
 
My prays are with his sister also during her battle with cancer. I have been hearing too much of this lately.
 
Chilleb on JJ has been mentioning that it's not a sure thing he qualifies. Take that fwiw. He claims ADR needs to retake the SAT.
He's usually pretty good about these things.

Lavin better not send him to Rise Academy
 
Apparently Tony Chiles wasn't just being fat and lazy.

Chiles works hard in my opinion, but respect 72 has his.

Karma and Darma my redmen friend. ;)
BTW, I do not think Tony is lazy but pleasantly plump he is! I am happy we get an Adonis to replace a God's Gift. He and Joey can be paired to be our twin towers. Towers because they are pretty much immobile. It will safe to say we will not be using our athletic running game with either in the game. ;)
