They both seem like really good hires for Duquesne. Seems like Wright is the right man for the job as he will fit in perfectly if Joyce is the next head coach when Dambrot retires. The only thing is that his experience seems to be in the same recruiting market as all of our staff. IF other assistant slots open, I would like to see more of a NY/NJ recruiting connection.

CLK I so agree. Thinking the same thought about expanding recruiting connections. Give me an Euro connection. I am sure however that Coach Dambrot & Coach Joyce are happy with the hires. As the Professor always says”time will tell” Go Dukes

Probably good hires but would be nice to find other fertile ground and not limit ourselves to the extent we do. At any rate, I have no complaints about the current recruiting class!!

It would be great to know who & with what connections landed Savrasov & Jakub Necas? Maybe there is a Euro recruiting specialist now on the staff.
