Watch soon for a new men's coach to be named to New Jersey Tech. They are making it a full time job and seem to be spending some good $$ for the program.

Answer to the question Ryan McNeil (go Macky) Ryan's down here at the JO's in Austin, can I congratulate him yet or should I hold off? I also saw him at the USA:Russia match.

Wow, that's a quick recruiting start! He is assisting a Chicago area club team that is playing in the JO's. Not bad, getting to coach and get a jump start on recruiting!!

he left here on Thursday and will be heading down there to talk serious turkey. He sounded very positive about it and was looking forward to it. Camp week here with Mac and JR was fantastic. I was completely impressed with the way they taught the skills and the different drills they brought in. Anyone interested in having them come for a camp, let me know. JR is still available for several camps and hey.......Soler.....he is in Ft. Lauderdale this week. Ask him about the trampoline )

Hola
I feel sick to my stomach today...Beckycantbumpsetorspike and I agree on something!!! LMAO
McNeil is a GREAT addition to the NJIT staff. As much as I hate Deuser and everything he stood for, McNeil is a whole different cat completely. He was a great addition to the SPVB staff this summer, helping out their 17's team. (VERY funny sight seeing a former Lewis assistant and a former Loyola assistant on the bench together!!!) He is a CLASS act and his boundless energy will quickly elevate NJIT out East. With the stagnant recruiting efoorts of George Mason, it is easy to see NJIT quickly getting into the top 3 out East with PSU and Rutgers.
Good luck to Ryan...a great man who has worked his butt off to make Lewis a better team than before he arrived!!!

If you look at what the teams at Lewis have acomplished with his sitting second seat on the bench, it is unbelievable that Lewis didn't want to keep him on. The past 4 years on the women's team did exceedingly well with him as the asst. coach and the men's team the past 2 years. He is a ball of energy who sees things on the court that others miss. After being with him this week in camp and outside of camp, he has a way with players that makes them want to excel. New Jersey will be good for him and they are lucky to have him if he accepts.

it is unbelievable that Lewis didn't want to keep him on. Even if they had asked him, would he have wanted to stay?

ya, he would have stayed in a heartbeat if lewis showed some compassion and gave the guy a break. there are a number of things at lewis that piss me off and one of the big ones is the way they treated ryan in his parting. on another note, he will do some damage over there in the eiva. the main conquest is taking down penn st. and not making it so easy for them to get to the final four. macky will do a damn good job.

New Jersey Tech --or-- Penn State New Jersey Tech --or-- Penn State New Jersey Tech --or-- Penn State?
ummmm, which one to to chose?
3 points: Very difficult to out-recruit PSU. Dennis and Pav are the best one-two recruiting combo in VB. I can only think of one recruit they wanted that they lost. (to another F4 team) If both programs are after a certain top-notch player, I can't see PSU ever losing.
PSU is stacked with stud underclassman, waiting for their chance to play.
PSU, along with BYU, best conditions their players (compared to ALL other programs) making 4/5 games difficult to win. Penn State always has huge-quick players.
Perhaps New Jersey Tech should lower their sights just a little, and go after Rutgers (poor recruiting followthru), Mason (poor work habits), and Juniata (great program and coaching--but hard to attract fab50's because of school size)
