Faines is shown as a walk on on Verbal Commits. Has he been awarded a scholly?

What makes you think he now has a scholarship?

Waitress' scholly summary says so.

Edit: For now I can't find anything to confirm he has a scholly. Until there is something more I will assume he's not on scholarship. If anyone hears otherwise please let me/us know.

It's an Illinois thing.

Since it's not the sort of thing more easily verified, I'll await something more confirmatory.

If Faines is given a scholarship, Bob will announce it at the luncheon, I'd expect. He didn't mention it in the talk tonight, but I don't know if we should read anything into that.

He did tell us to pass on to members of this board not to post discouraging words about our players. Davidson students tend to be self-critical as it is, so it doesn't take much negativity to get into their heads. I see almost none of that here as it is, but apparently a little goes a long way.

Funny to think about the fact that our source on recruiting is a guy named Waitress. 8)

My working title for the tell-all book about DCats is "A Man Named Waitress".

Good thing we don't have a tournament in Asheville, NC, any more.

I may be mistaken, but, I believe that Rip Economou is in the 2018 class.

You are correct - 2018

I'm in a generous mood, handing out schollies and promoting kids ahead of their class. Any other trifling matters?

Waitress on probation?
