Popular Post Stuhoo Posted July 19, 2017 Author Popular Post Posted July 19, 2017 Well... a little quick research: the entire staff of Highrise Basketball has Queens connections. Queens is the home of...Moses Brown.Gladstone was also the New England prep school coach of the year, and regularly interacted with...David Duke.

WayneFleekHoosier Posted July 19, 2017 Posted July 19, 2017 Fascinating development. What is the position of Grad Assistant anyway? Have we had them in the past? Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners Quote

Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners I think Kory Barnett was a grad assistant before going to UCLA and I believe Elston had that role for a year after trying his luck playing overseas.

Stuhoo Posted July 19, 2017 Author Posted July 19, 2017 He runs all kinds of Northeast skills academies, is a very successful prep school coach, and runs an AAU team, but I can't yet find a real connection to any recruit we're after. ALASKA HOOSIER, lillurk and rebelhoosier848891 3 Quote
rebelhoosier848891 Posted July 19, 2017 Posted July 19, 2017 Gladstone looks like he was a good high school coach the last few years at St. Luke in Connecticut too--New England champion the last two years. Also a college strength and conditioning coach on his resume'. Perhaps he can help us with some future connections ...I do like a few tough NewYork/New England kids on the roster---still wish Holt would have made better decisions at IU--liked him a lot. Anyway--Archie is definitely moving on the recruiting trail. This will be interesting to watch ...Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners lillurk and GloryDays 2 Quote

He also has experience coaching with several AAU programs and basketball camps in the tri-state region.The Queens native, played Big East basketball at DePaul University under head coach Jerry Wainwright with his career cut short due to injury.

WayneFleekHoosier Posted July 19, 2017 Posted July 19, 2017 He also has some skills videos on YouTube. This almost seems like a stepdown for him or lateral move. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners HooHooHoo22 1 Quote

Popular Post BTOWN Posted July 19, 2017 Popular Post Posted July 19, 2017 Just did some quick research and found this article Looks like Moses Brown, Cole Anthony, and a number of former recruits you'd recognize were coached by Gladstone in a charity event a couple months ago. Pretty strategic move by Arch, I'd say. That's a hotbed of talent and at the very least, Gladstone can relate to them. LIHoosier, lillurk, thebigweave and 11 others 14 Quote
