You bet my jaw dropped when I saw the story in today's Daily News that La Salle pulled 7-foot-3, 290-pound Jameson Keefe. I had too much stuff to do today but I intend to find out next week whether he'll be the tallest player in Big Five history.
I'd bet, though, that 6-9, 230-pound Vernon Goodridge, a transfer from SEC power Mississippi State, will have a bigger impact when he becomes eligible. We won't see Keefe this season either, as he's redshirting a year.
Still, the biggest jaw-dropper came on Andy Katz's blog today: La Salle backed out of playing Drexel at the DAC, and Drexel isn't happy about it. Katz also reports that Frank Elegar will play for the Virgin Islands at the Tournament of the Americas in Las Vegas this summer. So if any of you Drexel folks needed another reason to go there, you've got one.
Your thoughts on that Drexel-La Salle tidbit?
