Having Godwin here after Baker was basically a 4 year starter and then having Dickens would be a big plus. Add in the recruitment of Wade from Richmond and possibly Jarvis ( from Staunton is it?) it tells me that our coaching staff is finally making some inroads around the Commonwealth. That is huge in my thinking.

Did Godwin and Dickens play against each other? Im sure they did.

Not in HS, Godwin went to Hampton and Dickens was at Bethel, arch rivals. Dickens played in HS with Cam Bacote and is close to the Bacote family. Also add Aaron to the above list, another hometown guy, which makes them a fan favorite. Godwin and Dickens played on Boo's EYBL team in the spring and summer of 2016.

Dickens had close to 30 offers out of HS including VaTech and UVa.

Here's a pic of Dickens and Godwin.

Thank DaBig for adding Aaron to my list. I don't know how I could leave him off. One of my favorite Monarchs.

I hope we get Dajour. He will certainly fill a need next year and have a chance to be a big contributor. He can certainly draw enough attention to open up things for others.

He would have to sit a year

Correct...meant year after next. I really needs another year to get stronger. He could be a force if he puts in the work.

Well, the weekend has come and gone. Has anybody heard anything about how the visit went?

Be confident that he is exploring other options but it can't hurt that there are players on the team that he has played with before and coaches he knows pretty well. I hope he commits and I hope he develops mentally and physically. He could be a huge part of our program for 3 years.

Getting closer to it being official for Dajour D.

Since this is after the spring signing period, it is not 'official' until he enrolls in classes.


RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018 - ODU True Blue - 07-02-2018 01:52 PM

Ed may be wrong. He will have 3 years of eligibility if he cannot play this year. If he can play this year he should have 4 years of eligibility.


RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018 - DaBigBlue - 07-02-2018 01:56 PM

Great news Dickens is a solid addition to the Monarchs.


RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018 - odu09 - 07-02-2018 02:01 PM

This is very welcome news. I wish him luck getting the waiver to play next season. Welcome, Dajour!


RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018 - ODUBB35 - 07-02-2018 02:06 PM

Superb. Here's hoping he can play this season. We definitely need him.


RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018 - DaBigBlue - 07-02-2018 02:09 PM

Good day to be a Monarch.


RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018 - JJMonarch - 07-02-2018 02:10 PM

Fantastic news. Welcome aboard Mr. Dickens. If he can play this fall he could be the missing piece to the puzzle. Also, his friend Godwin is looking like a beast this summer.

Didnt a infamous poster say we wouldnt know until mid june what our team was going to be?

............oh wait.........

Maybe he meant early July?

People whined all summer because they have zero patience and turns out; Jones got 2 big men.


RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018 - Mr.BigBlue - 07-02-2018 02:46 PM

Great get...has work to do but should be a very good player in CUSA. I hope he gets an extra year and can play next year. JJ has certainly been getting it done lately. Nice seeing BWSL players coming or staying home.


RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018 - monarx - 07-02-2018 03:00 PM

YES!!!!!!!


RE: Men's Basketball Recruiting: 2018 - ODU AGGIE - 07-02-2018 03:05 PM

Outstanding! Happy for Dickens, happy for the Monarchs, and happy for Monarchs fans everywhere! Great job, Coach Jones et. al.

That's great to hear. Is there any place to read on that or view anything for those of us not plugged in? In reference to Godwin.
