Good stuff. Looking forward to having Hassan on the team this year. Our backcourt as a whole is the best it's been in so many years.

Not saying he’ll be the same kind of player. But Hassan is going to end up like Tyrese in the sense that the Boneyard was split on bringing him in & prob underestimating the role he’s going to earn his way into playing

I don’t think we were split on bringing Rese in, but I’m sure there was disagreement on his role. He improved a lot from his time at URI.

There was definitely a split. I was reading the thread about him visiting initially after the season and there were some very prominent posters adamant that he was not a good basketball player

Not too many clutch shots in March come to mind since Jalen Adams.

I hope I wasn’t one of those lol. Kinda surprises me considering where the program was at the time. But everyone shoulda agreed he belonged on a high major roster at minimum.
