Craig is a wonderful addition on so many levels. He is a Tri-State guy who wanted to be a purple ace from his early years in Mt. Carmel. Additionally, his work at all levels: Coach-AD-asst. @nm; all add up to great experience and coaching contacts that can help us recruit. Plus, he will be a great second set of eyes and ears for Rags. The HC can’t do it all. I really like the connection with the successful Aces teams of the past. And his return makes a HUGE statement about UE’s desire to become relevant again.

We must be careful not to pin a big “S” on the chest of Marcus Wilson as David Ragland is the Head Coach. However, the sign of a great leader is measured by those he chooses to surround him. By adding Marcus Wilson to the coaching team along with a third assistant of his choice we will see leaders each of which will be wearing that S. These Supermen of coaches will bring success to the team, the basketball program, the school and finally lift up the community. They will be the developers of young men at UE.

Mike Brown's son, Elijah, played for 2-3 years at New Mexico after transferring from Butler. I'm assuming that's how Coach Brown met Coach Snow.

Pardon me but maybe should temper your expectations a bit. Nothing personal & also applies to ISU but Evansville won't be home for any "Butler level" recruits and no IU, PU or any other P5 level. What was your purpose to come on this site. You have no idea what kind of players he will get. Can definitely get Butler type players. I am huge Aces fan, but I think you need some perspective.

No they were not. Still waiting with baited breath for news of all those recruits from P5 flocking to Evansville?

DeAndre was "recruited" by Kentucky after he transferred from here and Cunliffe played at Kansas, so they were unquestionably good enough to play at Butler.
There is probably a little truth to both sides and the answer is in the middle. Agreed that Evansville won't get many of these guys and may need to "temper expectations" some but to say that "Evansville won't be home for any "Butler level" recruits" is obviously incorrect. This year may be a little lean because we are late in the year, but Coach Ragland is known as a people person and a recruiter so I think we will see some recruits like this, but obviously not the norm probably. Time will tell.

To state that players recruited by Kansas and Kentucky are not good enough to play at Butler is laughable. Troll somewhere else, after that nonsensical statement you will never be taken seriously here again.
