UNI MBB offseason thread

[CyCarp]

Sounds like the guys will be taking an overseas trip in early August to Italy. Great move to get these guys more time on the court together.

Nice! I wonder if Andrea Comini has set this up. I think he's still with the team?

I think he left the program after this past season but someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

Andrea went home. They are looking for a replacement.

This was all set up by Basketball Travelers. Italy seems to be the destination of choice right now for a bunch of college teams. Iowa State, Michigan State and several others are doing Italian trips this year.

His wife was not happy with the long-distance marriage arrangement but he will be showing the guys around his home country on the August trip.

She's obviously got screwed up priorities....

Croft going to D2-UW-Parkside. FYI

The Hauser boys are going to Michigan State and Virginia. Looks like we wouldn't have had much of a shot even if we had the scholarships!

When did we talk about trying to get the Hauser twins? Unless he had them confused with the Madsen twins?

Nobody did seriously. I think someone just mentioned how great it would be if they somehow ended up at UNI but acknowledged that we A) didn't have the scholarships and B) obviously not in a realistic position. Did we recruit them initially out of high school?

My comment was more in jest than anything.

[BCPanther]

We recruited Joey but not seriously. It was pretty clear that he was headed for the big time.

3. Markus Howard, MARQ - 6.9
4. Donovan Fields, CP - 6.6

Not a big surprise, since those step back shots from outside appear to be his main “go to” move.

This part of his game is very good - where does he stand in FG% off the dribble?

If he can improve his passing and handle in traffic, he’ll be stellar.

Don't know about off the dribble but he was very high in the conference in efg%
