He was a bright spot!  What is going on with him?  Surely Ferry didn't run him off?????????????

Things are getting worse and worse.

Duquesne needs to drop their ticket price next year and bring back the frisbee dogs.

Always a good day when we can steal from Hofstra

You never know if this is true or just a courtesy response.  Winters had a lot of potential but was somewhat limited in his ball handling and passing.  Still I would rather have him than not. 

This is the risk sometimes when you get players from outsidr your region. Milwaukee is not really close, plus the A10 doesn't have any teams near there, so his family can't see him play without making a long trip. I thought he had decent potential, but losing him is not a killer.

Thank you CLK

Just a painfully obvious comment. I will dig and find more about Gabe.

 
Nothing painful about it.  He is a 6'7" 220lb SF/PF from St. Thomas Moore and was a teammate of duane Notice.  I put a video of him in the recruiting thread.

If duane notice had a pleasant recruiting experience with duq, this will be good for us. They were teammates

Jeralta, please stop with this type of comment.  Unless you have something specific to add about this player best not to comment.

He turned the ball over with poor passing skills, he was over recruited with the bigger forwards who had more size than His 6-4 to 6-5 height

Winters was the best player Ferry recruited last year. Period. Had the potential to become a big-time scorer, without needing to take 20 shots a game. Of course, with Colter running the point, no one but Colter is ever going to take 20 shots a game.


Didn't see anything last year to tell me Ferry could coach this team on the court. With wholesale change about to come on an annual basis, I have some serious questions about recruiting and stability.

when you are 8-22 you have players who are not good enough to win, Winters might have been homesick or realized he would be a 20 min a game player...
 

While I would have preferred that Q stayed, the rest of the guys who left simply cannot play at this level, and needed to be eased out of here to make room for guys who can play.
