Potential Grad Transfers

Jacquil Taylor 6'10"/240 transferring from Purdue. Barely played behind Swanigan/Haas in his 3 seasons there. Was a 3 star recruit coming out of HS in Massachusetts. Not the best guy out there but I'd take him in a heartbeat. Had to have learned something going up against those guys in practice.
 
I think it would be great if we just had a second primary recruiter who could scour Europe, South America,
Asia, and Africa. There are so many talented players in those countries - some very skilled, as in Europe, some very athletic. It seems we run into a few of those types of bigs each season.

I have no problem with Matt, Chris, or St. Jean. I think if Richmond were to be replaced, rather than another bench coach, could hire 2 recruiters at that price who could help in the process.

It might be cheaper if the school just pays for your airline ticket and hotel instead of the meal expenses. :woohoo: :cheer: :lol:

Had 3 Tacos Al Pastor with Queso and a bottle of water the other day for lunch for under $3 and I might not ever eat tacos again in New York these were so good.

I've sent friends and clients and a couple people from this board there and they have all said it's amazing and one of the best meals of their life
 
May know the place in Venice. Became friends with locals who lived in Lido in the mid 90's and they led us there.

I bought an amazingly expensive chandelier that was custom made in Murano. Impulsive buy as a salesman caught me going to the bathroom from the glass blowing exhibition. IT's in our dining room and a great conversation piece.

I actually think you'd be an incredible recruiter. Except that we'd end up with a roster filled with guys who love beer and good food.

They have awesome stuff there on Murano. We bought some small stuff but chandelier would have been way out of our budget at the time :)

Expensive. Caught you going to the bathroom. Glass blowing exhibition. Were you exhibiting yourself while going to the bathroom in a glass case?:p
