Off-Season Procedures
We get some good news with 2 very late recruits.
PF Chris Needham from Scotts Valley, CA and C Vaughn Batiste from Puyallup, WA committ to Colgate. I believe they were both 3 star recruits, but I cannot go to the recruiting screen anymore.
More good news, the AD has decided to upgrade our training facilities, and the changes will take effect next season. Meanwhile, this season we have the worst in our conference.
Even more good news! We were somehow ranked with the #20 recruiting class in the nation. Fresno State was ranked #1 in the country.
No Job offers come our way. I am a bit surprised, but I would have declined anyways.
Our lead scout has left for the College of Charleston. We will have to replace him.
We bring on Vito Brown. He is rated 44 in scouting and will be paid 55,000 per year.
We will have to schedule 11 OOC games this off season, 7 can be home games.
As of the end of May, we have scheduled games with: Grambling, Cornell, IPFW, Florida A&M, Albany, and UMass.
In June we schedule: Cal State Fullerton, Tennessee State and Nevada
We still have 2 more spots to fill
Recruiting also begins in June and we have 4 scholarships to offer.
In July we schedule: Idaho and Furman, which rounds out our schedule. A bit tough than previous years.
As November hits we get an early recruit
C Charles Barr, from Homer, NY commits to Colgate. Charles is a 3 star prospect. Already a good defender, Charles has the potential to grow into a very good offensive threat as well.
