Re: No Marlon Jones for fall

I agree with much of what you have written -- however, I have to say one comment on the big time assistant part:

NW finally got religion by seeing what Fitz has done with football. Get a well groomed high energy guy (Collins) and let him run a turnaround. But, you have to promise him major stuff ...

Re: No Marlon Jones for fall

7'5 and 360 pounds...seems a big difference between King and the Bhullar boys.

Re: No Marlon Jones for fall

I have to ask - after reading this site a bit over the last year - why would anyone want King on the floor next year? He was a project, a nice kid who could eventually give minutes in the Horizon league -- not in the Valley.
