GW got a visit from Gerald Drumgoole, Jr.

Drumgoole averaged 13.9/3.8/2.4 for Delaware last season.  He scored 12 points against us in the Bahamas and could've scored more had he not gone 1-7 from 3.  If I remember right, some of those misses were key for us in our comeback.  He averaged 15.7 ppg for Albany the year prior and started his collegiate career at Pitt.

Kinda crazy, Drumgoole was actually offered by Mojo in high school.

Where'd you see this?

Looks like a good compliment to Castro, as he appears to be a 3 point threat. Would also seem to have 2 years of eligibility due to the lost Covid year.

Only 1 year of eligibility since Ivy League players don't get an additional year of eligibility from the year they didn't play (which is dumb imo). Also I'm pretty sure we have 3 remaining scholarships, not 2 since Benny is turning pro (https://www.instagram.com/p/C5yZJmgsdsP/?igsh=MWRyNWV5YW12MXVqcQ%3D%3D). It's 13 scholarships for men's basketball, right?

Scholarship players for next year as of now:
Hansen
Harvey
Castro
Johnson
Buchanan
Hutchinson
Autry
Weluche-Ume
Jones
Bevins

Another walk on or a scholarship player?

Is Benny gone?

Caputo said in a Zoom call last night that he's gone back to Germany

Happy the A10 won both their games today but I will admit I picked against both Duquesne and Dayton in my brackets. If you picked both of them to win, come to the window and claim your prize (a free ticket to GW's home game against No One's Heard of Them State A&M's Frederick satellite campus).

Thanks to the wins GW gets their share of the NCAA tournament "units" that are distributed to teams in the same conference as teams who win a tournament game. I've seen conflicting reports on how the money is distributed, but I believe we get a little over 12k each year for the next six years because the A10 got two wins. Obviously this isn't anything close to program altering money but it's another angle to March Madness that I think is fun

I am under the impression that Keegan will be returning. Although I agree with the premise of your post and I'm hoping the staff targets more experienced players in the portal rather than doing what they did last year

Would love a replacement for Bishop with more positional size than Bishop has

Very refreshing to see this team finally win and I'm glad they were able to stop the streak, especially considering it was senior night. I've seen them doubling big men throughout conference play but they've continually gotten burned by bad help defense and good passing from opposing post players. The difference tonight is they made Venning (and Noel, who we know isn't much of a passer) uncomfortable and forced them into bad passes, especially to open the 2nd half.
