Nash. No, Mitch's comment about Aidas's Visa was made off- hand. He didn't elaborate.

Very enjoyable evening. Kid's were very cordial and seemed to enjoy being talked to. Matija has put on 15 pounds and looks taller, Denise is not a 95 lb. weakling and Olivier looks like a marine in training. He said he jogs to the beach and back every day. All the players seem to like each other which is important. Tommy Nolan will get more time than we think; just my opinion. Mitch gave a nice speech about Doc Pleban and the history of Doc's Roundtable. Plenty of good food, nice get together. I think its great that Mitch spoke about Doc's Roundtable. It has been a staple of Fairfield basketball, and properly named for Doc Pleban. Over the years the event has taken on many different flavors as far as the coaches formal Q & A, but just as the important, having the ability to talk to the coaches, players and administrators on a 1-on-1 is priceless. Excited to hear that Milin put on 15 extra pounds…. hopefully its all muscle. I am thinking he can be a Dirk Nowitski type of player….. a big man who can play facing the basket, with the ability to take his man down low. IMO, he can be our best low-post presence this year, and has the ability/potential to be our best "pure" PF of all time. Olivier and Nolan could fill roles as defensive stoppers. I see them as Tice and TOT, even though both of those never played together, they were on championship teams.

The player who caught my eye was JJ. He looked taller than last year and seemed more muscular. Said he was working hard during the offseason to get stronger. Mission accomplished.

Anyone get a good sense from the coaches how close/far we are from winning a MAAC championship? How is the void going to be filled with Marcus' graduation?
