"Why leave a program that seemed ahead of the one he was taking over?"

Geno answered: administration and fan support. He also touched on recent NCAA trips and great area high schools.

Returning Players:

Ford talked about DSE and his need to go to the next level.

Also, TB needs to be a huge part and have a great senior year.

Says Walt is the fastest guy he's ever coached.

New guys:

Ford touched on most of the new players as well. Donivine battling for time at PG, Jalen is a great mid-range shooter, Shayock will get major minutes at SF, Wells they called Shaqwells, and Devon is a little rusty.

Finally, he said he understood Sammy leaving.

The ratings from Blue Ribbon:

BACKCOURT: C+
BENCH/DEPTH: C
FRONTCOURT: C
INTANGIBLES: A-

They finished saying the Les years ended badly and change was needed.

Schedule features tough road games, want the kids to be excited, and pump some life into the program.
