Clayton, Riley, Dietz, Preston, Gamm is my guess on the starting lineup for the first game...

There could still be a few additions to the team that will definitely change that

Hate waiting for this news to finally drop... I do not think Clayton will start the first game.  For now, pending this news, I would guess the first game lineup is Lewis, Hackert, Dietz, Granger, and Gamm, depending on matchups and how confident the coaches are that this lineup can defend.

I would be sort of surprised if any Freshmen started any game for Hope next season.  That wouldn't necessarily be a great sign.

I think Hope has a lot of guys returning with the 'potential' tag and that includes some of the incoming Freshmen.  Unfortunately (or fortunate) they have a returning roster of many equals and not much set in stone beyond Granger and Lewis.  This summer feels pretty big for some guys and a roster that feels pretty wide open.

FDF, thanks for compiling the list of recruits for us!

Haven't seen it on social media yet, but an interesting commitment should be known soon ... one of the two MIAA schools without a coach will get one of the most widely recruited MIAA/WHAC recruits in Michigan, breaking the heart of another MIAA school.

Translation (pure guess--I know nothing): a Christian school player (Hudsonville Unity?) will go with his classmates to Calvin, breaking hearts at Hope. (I'm doubting Alma has that kind of school loyalty.)

I don't think that is who SBell is referring too.

Never heard of him. Not a name I've heard that's been at Hope for a visit.

And when will people get it you don't sign a letter of intent for a D3. Ceremonial paper, sure, but it's not an LOI nor are you really committing since unless you were highly recruited there is prob an equal shot at JV vs Varsity as a Frosh unless there was a ton of roster churn.

Ooooo, new fantasy league? Predict Hope's first game roster? I'll play!

To keep things different, I'll go Lewis, Dietz, Thomas, Granger, Gamm.
Let's go Dutchmen!

I'll play - I'm going D. I know, atypical for Hope but we can dream, right?

Bench will roll deep this year with Dietz, Davis, George, Thomas, Dykhouse, Hackert, Zandstra, Vree all getting appreciable minutes, and a "hot" guard approach to manage the 6-7 who are bottlenecked there.
