According to Verbal Commits, HC became the 12th school to offer Jacob Hammond, a 6’6” forward from Canada who attends IMG Academy in FL.

The competition doesn't look to me to be at normal IMG levels unless he's just xferring in this year. Or they have 2 teams which some of these academies have. I'm sure he's a solid recruit if CP is offering.

He has been offered by at least 8 low and mid majors in the last 2 months with the vast majority of offers being from low majors.

I presume that DP saw him in a recent grass roots tournament. This was most likely against strong competition.

I would assume men’s hoops would have some official visits this weekend and in two weeks when the gridders play Yale at Fitton. I know you can now have 15 scholarship players but I don’t see HC going beyond the usual # of 13. That means the staff only has 1 schollie to work with this fall.

I would ask the school for permission to sign 2 in this cycle with the likelihood that one or more from this year’s roster will move on. It’s just the way it is right now and we have to be forward thinking and take advantage of this increase in men’s schollies.

The House settlement which increases roster sizes for many sports is tailored to FBS; e.g., football scholarships increase from 85 to 105. I have neither read nor heard of FCS now moving to 105 football scollies. The House settlement is focused on revenue sharing with the athletes. The presumption is that the revenue sharing will only occur for those universities where athletics revenue exceeds expenses. The Power Four are the only conferences where that is the case. (There may be one or two Big East basketball schools where revenue exceeds expenses, e.g., Marquette.) I am unaware of any FCS, school moving to the revenue sharing model BECAUSE THEY SIMPLY CANNOT AFFORD IT. To do so would only magnify their net loss.
