Rider's roster set
With the end of the spring signing period a day away, Rider finalized its 2009-10 roster today by adding 6-4 guard Jonathan Thompson. The Broncs' other scholarship will go to UNLV transfer DeShawn Mitchell, who faxed his letter of intent to Rider today.
The school will likely formally announce the signings tomorrow.
Tommy Dempsey told me the Broncs are happy to have a Thompson and a Johnson in this recruiting class, the Johnson being point guard Carl Johnson, who committed earlier this month after Matt Griffin decided to transfer.
Center Dara Nd-Ezuma -- a project from Nigeria via Life Center Academy in Burlington Twp. -- and shooting guard Jhamar Youngblood -- a transfer from Monmouth who sat out last year in accordance with NCAA rules -- fill out the Broncs' roster.
Mitchell, who the Broncs initially recruited out of Monmouth Academy, will sit out next year and be eligible in 2010-11.

how are these guys rated by scouting services? What other chools recruited them?
who's idea was it to release Williams from his letter of intent, his or Dempsey's?
nice Job by the Rider staff putting together a solid class. Sir Christian Williams chose to not come to Rider, and Griffin wants to start or play more minutes then he would have played at Rider, Matt is a great person and I wish him all the best. For the Siena posters that are making up things about dempsey look in the mirror and answer what happened to Wolfgang
Not a Siena guy, just a Rider grad who doesn't want to see our program turn into the type of program that pulls the rug out from under kids feet just before the signing period.
I was told that Sir CW wanted to play major minutes as a freshman or start, that was not going to happen at Rider next year and also that he wanted to stay closer to home. It was a mutual decision not Rider pulling his offer
