With Halil's Departure there are now 10 players in the program and 5 slots available.  Hoping for some ADDITIONS soon.

Re: Let's TRY Keeping Track of Roster Etc.

I don't know if the walk-ons will be back with all the changes that were covered on the first page, but Prolla and McDermott have eligibility left.

Looks like there are only 9 in and 6 available -  YOU are correct..  When Barre and Wilborn left -  only ONE got subtracted in the numbers.  That is why I/we are TRYING to keep track of the roster.  Mea Culpa!!

Re: Let's TRY Keeping Track of Roster Etc.

It will be interesting to see how Dru fills out his roster, and whether they fill all 15 possible roster spots.  Personally, I think having 15 guys on scholarship, or by today’s standards, on the payroll is too many.  I think you could take a scholarship and distribute its value among 2-3 Preferred walk-ons in the form of High School players.  The point being, how often would roster spots 13,14,and 15 actually do more than practice?

Re: Let's TRY Keeping Track of Roster Etc.

Somebody please correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe 15 is not the new scholarship limit, but the maximum roster size. If so any walk-ons would have to be counted in the 15. That is why I mentioned Prolla and McDermott. Of course if we hit 15 without them they’d be the first to go. If they are coming back though I believe they would be counted in the 15. Again please correct me if that is wrong. Things are changing so often and so quickly now that I certainly could be mistaken.

Re: Let's TRY Keeping Track of Roster Etc.

I haven't seen anything from/about Dom Aekins since before he went to prep school that says he is committed to Duquesne. Does anyone have any recent info confirming his commitment is still in place?

A quick look at his Instagram page https://www.instagram.com/domaekins/ shows the first picture with a Duquesne background. This article https://www.phenomhoopreport.com/duquesne-commit-2025-dominique-aekins-puts-on-a-strong-show/ from March also mentions him as a Duquesne commit. Nothing is a given in today’s world until he’s actually on campus, but all indications I can find are good.
