I only recently started posting so I am not "credible" in terms of this board..... but this is my speculation- have talked to some about the assistants and recruits is strictly speculation. I think Siena kid is in, if Bowen is on board- I think Wilkes will follow, and I think Brust is a Hawkeye but is trying to reassure himself since coaching change. If my math is correct-would bank 2 schollies for next year to go with Cole's. Good balance if I happen to be close with predictions!

Coaches - Speraw, Rodell Davis, Horner
Players - Basabe, a PG and hopefully Brust
Coaches: Speraw, Ryan Bowen, Horner as GA
Recruits: (forgive my spelling) Basabe (siena recruit), Wilkes (Kid from Burlington), and Brust
Does Bowen have much of a coaching background?
My guess is that he doesn't and that will eliminate him from a major assistant position with Fran. This is going to be a tough rebuilding job and Fran needs top notch help that can bring a lot to the table.

Yep - that would bank two for next year.
What's Bowen's connection to Wilkes?
I think Brust may end up at Boston College although he'd be a welcome addition to the team. That said, Rakeem Brookins (former Tulane commit) wouldn't be a bad replacement if Ben heads east.
I was hearing those same "rumblings" about assistants in our local sports bar here in Dallas last night. Absolutely no inside info - just a bunch of Hawk fans having a beer and jawing.
