Jojo has a quick release but starts his shot way to low. Almost shoots it off his shoulder.

JM and crew are going for some REAL talent - it's tough wood to chop, but it MUST be done, whatever it takes to land the right fit and the right caliber players

only takes 1 or 2 superstar-type guys to get things rolling and light a program on fire - put together some exciting attention grabbing seasons and the recruiting gets a bit smoother...

it can be done, and yes, even at HU, as proven by more and more mids each yr. In JM I trust to get it done!!

Interesting that this looks to be another guard focused class thus far, not a whole lot going on just yet with bigs...

Wonder what their game plan is for the post - I know they have one, not worried at all actually, just really curious! Are they moving under cover so to speak, looking JUCO, going for another key transfer or 2??

Would be great if HU could do that, but I don't think he wants to go in that direction - from a twitter feed I read that he's going to decide between Hawaii and Long Beach St - not sure if that's 100% true, but the only thing I can find so far...

per nyhoops, Speedy was at the St Raymonds vs Holy Cross game scouting talent - HU has offered players from both sides for '16 and '17 I believe, both guards and forwards - there is TOP talent on both squads, and HU is in early on a few of them

If HU puts together 2 good yrs of post-season level play and garners national attention, the potential to land MAJOR talent in '16 and '17 is very high

the next 3-4 yrs of both team performance and recruiting are vital to the future of this program - the opportunities in this time frame can be 'program changing'

no pressure JAM lol - ROLL PRIDE baby
