So all Dambrot has to do is not finish last (that is, finish above
Fordham) in a weak A-10 and that’s considered success? By the way,
Duquesne has dropped 7 of 8, including a 23 point drubbing at home...to Fordham. The Dukes are one game out of 12th place and two games out of last place, and they still have to play Davidson,
SLU, and
UMass. Duquesne is # 230 in the RPI.
Regarding depth, their roster this season is obviously not stellar, but they have at least 8 guys who play significant minutes in nearly every game—including 3 seniors and 1 junior.
Dambrot is a big improvement over Ferry, but let’s not name him Coach of the Year just yet. The tooth fairy would be an improvement over Ferry...
