Ronnie Perry jr, Eddie Riley, Coach Blaney, Ernie Floyd, and Roger Breslin I see. Not sure who that is between Rabs and Breslin..

I recognize RP, Eddie Reilly and (I think) Roger Breslin. Who are the other alums in the picture?
Has poor Louth practiced at all?

Isn't that Ernie Floyd next to Rabs?
Maybe I missed an announcement, but the coolest part of this tweet is that there is an official 90 wide program for the hoops team

Yes, but a different name might have been more appropriate for the basketball team. Perhaps a tribute to td128’s hard work over many years? 💜✝️

A number of other former players were there as well. Most are mentoring current members of the team, and I have heard it is very well received by players and recruits.
I hear George loved being back in the gym and spending time with the team and his former players. My guess is he will make his way to the Blaney gym for a few practices and I expect he will be attending a few games.
Coach Paulsen is doing everything right. Very positive feelings about the direction. No predictions for the season yet, but this will be the best basketball produced by Holy Cross in many years.

Is it possibly Tim Payne, from 1996?
Didn't want to post his LinkedIn profile, but it kind of looks like him, and says he is living in the area.

I'm probably wrong - this guy looks a bit bigger

And never mind the alums, I have to start getting familiar with the faces of the current players!

Who are the Alums next to RP Jr.?
Dave, believe it or not with my bad eyes, I can name this year’s team on sight.
Looking at the picture, Avery Wills is not in the picture, if I am seeing correctly….

Eddie Reilly with the glasses and RJ are the only alums in that grouping The other two are assistant coaches

RJ Evans is both an alum and an assistant coach. 😊
Who is standing next to RP Jr. It is not Bryson Johnson, who I standing next to Khalil Singleton and Ted Rawlings on the right side of the photo.

Looks like Kevin Hamilton next to Ron Perry. You may be right When I saw him in June, I did not recognize him at first with the beard. He knew my name, and kindly told me his.

FWIW I have to be swept away by the resonance of the moment. George Blaney? Are you kidding me? Coach Blaney is an all time great as a man & a basketball player& coach.

Fine of Paulsen to invite George and some of his former players Coach Dave Paulsen seems to have a pitch perfect emotional quotient (EQ) for Holy Cross. Gestures like this are really important. It is such a welcome change.

Two points George loved being asked to come and spend time with the team and a few of his former players Another indication to all of us why Dave Paulsen is a perfect man and coach for Holy Cross

First picture: CGB, Bo, Caleb, Declan R, Jaden K, Joe N, Willy B, Louth M. Second picture: Louth M, Jade T, Joe O, Ben C, Khalil S, Declan M, Deandre W. Behind Declan M is Coaches Johnson and Rawlings. Alum Ernie Floyd is next to Deandre W. Crucis I count 15 players in the photo. I could be wrong but I think it’s Deandre Williams and Kahlil Singleton behind Capron and McIntyre and AJ Wills and Rabs on either side of Ernie Floyd.

I count 14 players, I don’t see Wills. There were 14 at the practice I saw…I’d bet the ink isn’t dry on Wills paperwork, so he can’t participate yet..

Behind Ben C is Joe O to his right and Kahlil S to his left. Deandre W is in the front row next to Ernie Floyd if my facial recognition software is performing correctly.😂
There are 14 players in the picture, which aligns to the current roster, without Avery Wills.

To give credit where it is due.
Props to PVR and ADKH for green lighting the launch and establishment of 90-Wide Mentoring programs across ALL HC Athletics programs. This is an ongoing process. The Ciocca Office for Ethics and Entrepreneurial Studies has launched a 90-Wide effort as well. Props to Rob Murner head of the Ciocca Office for understanding and appreciating the ‘power of the 90W program’.
The use of the 90-Wide name? Singular name to establish the BRAND and elevate the entire effort to be ‘best in class’.
Props to Aaron Dashiell in HC Athletics administration for leading the 90W charge on campus. I have been informed that over 500 Crusaders have already committed to serving as 90W mentors.
Props to Ronnie Perry Jr. for leading the HC MBB 90W effort.
The synergies across ALL the individual 90W Mentoring efforts are screamingly obvious. We are already working on promoting those synergies.
I’d be remiss in not also paying huge props to Coach Chesney, Coach James, Coach Dimichele and ALL the members of the HCFB staff for embracing and promoting the 90W both on the recruiting trails AND within HCFB on campus.
The 90-Wide Mission remains unchanged: A commitment to excellence in helping our Crusaders win on and off the field, court, ice and all other fields of play.
Amazing what can happen when leadership is displayed.
LET’S WIN!! ✝️👊🏻🏈🏀⚽️⚾️🏑🥍🏒🚣🏼👊🏾✝️
