In response to bisonmania
I said this before and going to say it again Bucknell misses Ryan Ayers as a recruiter and I feel you need a former post player on your coaching staff to help with recruiting. I am pretty sure Dom Hoffman would have liked to be part of the coaching staff. I just hope the coaches don't just hand out offers to players that will not help the team in the future.
Not having a tall assistant could be an issue. But the Bison did not have any former post players on staff when they recruited McNaughton, Muscala, or Foulland - so it is not necessarily an issue. And they didn't have any former post players on the coaching staff last year when Nana showed a lot of improvement. They also didn't have a former post player on staff during any of Muscala's developmental years.
Having said that, I too am concerned about the way recruiting is going. Looks like there is one player still on the radar - and hopefully a couple mystery recruits. Like you, I don't want to see scholarships go to any marginal players. As was the case last year, they may have to carry a scholarship over to the spring - or maybe even hold onto one and look for a spring transfer.
