Man I go away for a bit and return to find us squabbling. Yikes thats what a 6-20 season stirs up I guess.
SDS dont leave, I find your insights helpful. I can tell whos got the insight and whos on the periphery. Just by virtue of the number of fans of the program we cannot afford to lose anyone.

Someone sent this to me. I figured I'd share with the board.

Good to hear.
Doesn't look like he played much at Weber State. But he did have some good offers in high school--including from Washington and Washington State. Hopefully he can blossom in Hanover and help us win.

Interestingly, in Coach McLaughlin's presentation in the above linked webinar, he did not mention Ary-Turner. However, I believe he was asked a question about how alums could help the program. The coach stressed the importance of being available to give players the chance to connect for shadowing and internship opportunities. He then talked about recruiting an unnamed player from the Seattle area and how he asked for the school for a list of alums and quickly was given a large number of Dartmouth people to connect to.
(I tried to double check that info, but I am having trouble pulling up the webinar today).
With regards to Trevon Ary-Turner, there are a couple of articles from the Standard Examiner that gives some additional information.
http://www.standard.net/Weber-State/2017/01/1 9/Web...
http://www.standard.net/Weber-State/2018/03/2 0/Web...
Turner, a 6' 3" guard 2 star guard, was given a scholarship offer from Washington before the start of his sophomore season. After two severe ankle sprains and a broken knuckle limited him to 10 games his 2nd year, UW lost interest.
He did get offers from Boise State, Idaho, Montana, Seattle, Utah State and Washington State.
In his junior year at Issaquah High School (WA), he averaged 18 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds a game. He then transferred to Elite Prep for his senior year, where he averaged 19 points and 5 assists a game. His father was his coach at Elite Prep.
He, apparently, was most interested in Seattle, but was actually going to spend an additional year at Elite until he got an offer from Weber State in January of his senior year. After a visit to the campus, he committed there.
At Weber State, he played in 18 of the team's 31 games. He averaged 10.3 minutes, 3.7 points, 0.7 assists and 0.9 rebounds per game. He shot 59% (10-17) from 2, 42% (13-31) from 3 and 64% (7-11) from the FT line.
Looking at the Weber State site, he had season highs of 24 minutes and 22 points in his second-ever college game against West Coast Baptist. He played in 11 of 12 non-conference games averaging 14.7 minutes per game. He only played in 6 of the team's 18 conference games, averaging 3.7 minutes per game. He played only 1 minute in the last regular season conference game and another minute in the team's Big Sky Tournament opening game loss.
It seems that he will have to sit out next season and then compete with Brendan Barry, Taurus Samuels, Wes Slajchert and Isaac Letoa in his junior year.

He's not the first guy to promise to give the "inside scoop" at a future date, and not deliver the goods....

Hopefully Ary-Turner can help us get over the hump and win the close ones next season.
Right now, we're just not "there" yet. Whether its youth, lack of talent, lack of coaching experience in close games, or some combination thereof, this has been a difficult season for Dartmouth men's basketball.

On the other hand, Jackson has only played 12 minutes in the past 6 games and Sistare was out for the two most recent games.
Also, in Coach McLaughlin's first year, the team was ranked #280 at KenPom with 4 games to go (ending at #305). Last year, they were at #278 with 4 games to go (finishing at #299). This year, they are at #192. That's a pretty big jump, especially given the start of last season.

I agree that the team is showing progress under McLaughlin's tenure. But at some point, "progress" has to become "wins."
Also, he mostly enjoyed success at his prior stops. I presume that he mostly had talent that was better than the opponents in those places. I don't think he has tons of experience trying to scheme up ways to beat teams with better athletes like he's had to do in Hanover (at least thus far).

#192 definitely an improvement over previous years in the KP rankings. However, it still puts us at 6th in the KP rankings in the IL, yet we're tied for last as of Saturday. The league has gotten better and the rising tide is lifting the Big Green boat. I was secretly hoping, after our strong start, that we could have another shot at a post season berth like under Cormier. Right now I'm praying we win two or three more games to show year over year improvement in league. Last year we won 3 games in league and the year prior we won 4 games. Winning out the last games would be glorious, but that's asking too much of any higher power, but could happen.
