With Halil's Departure there are now 10 players in the program and 5 slots available. Hoping for some ADDITIONS soon. Portal closes on April 22. Hugley 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. Hugley 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!! Hugley Aekins 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? 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. 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? 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 shows the first picture with a Duquesne background. This article 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. As of 5/6/25 Last edited by townsonkid (5/06/2025 9:58 am) Cross off player #3. I updated it. 😀 👍 Recap on returning players: 👍 Based on where they are landing, the Dukes fans might have overvalued the roster. As of 4/18/25 12. Stef Van Brussel As of 4/18/25 12.

Coach isn't tossing the powder like he did last year. Jakevion Buckley has not committed to the Dukes. Looks like a couple of big schools are after him. I would be surprised if he ends up here...just sayin' Where are you seeing that FAM? All I've seen is the info in the other thread which I took for granted since I don't really do Twitter (or X). Then when I saw your post I went back and actually read it. I could definitely see how that random post would be inaccurate, but I'm not seeing any info on visits or even interest other than the Dukes. Hi! Not a random post unless my information is wrong… and I hope I am. But the information I have is that he isn’t committed yet. Again, Hope he is committed and no one knows. Hi!

I was referring to the other thread when I mentioned the random post. There's a twitter post in there that says he committed, but it was based on information from a questionable source. I haven't found anything suggesting bigger schools are after him, but with his game I'm certainly not surprised if they are. As of 5/9/25 Last edited by townsonkid (Today 7:57 am)

I wonder if Max will end up at another A10 school.
Some of these guys just don’t want any competition.

Re: Let's TRY Keeping Track of Roster Etc.
Wondering how long we hold out hope, seeing how a lot of portal players commit during their visits or shortly after. Was hoping to see something yesterday. I think he is exactly what we need, PG who can score, pass, and play defense. Could really vault us into the top levels of A10. I hope he picks the Dukes!!!
