Now that Tom Parratta is out at Canisus,if a position opens up on our staff, do we look to hire him back?

[Hofstra]

Why would we hire him back? This is Mo's staff. Parratta doesnt have any ties to these players, and was Pecorat's person. I think he will find himself at another school, but it wont be Hofstra.

[stuball888]

Parratta has some nice ties down south. he was instrumental in getting Kieza to come here and has a great relationship with Bob Stakmann down at Broward CC ( Adrian Uter).

Apparently those ties did'nt help him too much at Canisius...his record was very poor

[stuball888]

Canisuis is topugh place to recruit to. Even Niagara has been down lately. Hard to recruit when there is still snow on the ground in April. These kids want a warmer climate unless you are UConn.

Or the Big Ten, Notre Dame, Marquette, et al

[Jojogunne]

Looks like the Hurley brothers are heading to URI after only two years at Wagner:

Michigan State seemed to have a tough time with recruiting there. And Syracuse. And Wisconsin.

So far you guys gave me BCS schools. How about mid majors?
