    Judah On GTown's Portal Wishlist?

    Agreed. I doubt we will find a better scoring point guard than Judah, but an actual point guard that can cleanly run an offense, we can definitely do better than Judah.

    Josh Hart calls Tyler Lydon trash

    This is accurate. But, we'll always have that block against Gonzaga

    Syracuse MBB finally releases a statement

    Time is precious, especially in the portal era. Being able to jump into the transfer stuff way earlier than most teams, the better. Plus, the NIT to me as always felt like a test for new college rules (quarters vs. halves, shortened shot clock, extended three point line). No point playing in a...

    So Who Is The First Portaler?

    Taylor or Carey

    Program changing win

    Great comp for Va Tech. For Clemson, nobody mentions the losing streak that followed lol

    Yes im doing this

    Agreed. For me, this year felt like a trial run for Red as far as how he coaches and adjusts. The tournament would be great as that is the standard, but what we've seen from him has me so excited for the future of Syracuse basketball when he gets the guys he wants. Let's try and win games. The...

    2024 Schedule

    My seats are affected by the student section being moved (I was in 327/328 the last two seasons). Personally doesn't bother me as I've wanted to make a switch to the lower bowl anyway. Plus, I feel like most student sections are in the end zones at other schools. Really excited to see what the...

    Duke Thoughts...

    Any team that shoots 75% from the field and 100% from three in the second half is going to steamroll their opponent

    Observations

    FWIW - the top transfer was Hunter Dickinson, but Starling was the top guy at the time he committed to Cuse

    Class of 2024 ATH K.J. Bolden (GA) Committed to Georgia

    Fran's lost his recruiting touch. The game has gone by him. Time to bring in a young and hungry recruiter like Dan Mullen

    How do we get a visit from Golden but not from Dale Greene? Hair alone deserves an offer

    Coach Brown Intro Press Conference: Monday 10 AM | ACC Network

    I think it was said that Brown is not coaching the bowl game, so probably Nunz again

    2023-24 Portal

    So many names to keep up with but would love to see a thread of portal options where Syracuse is interested/in the running. The Fran Brown presser has me so hyped

    Benny

    My opinion is that it's all mental with Benny. When he gets going, he's phenomenal. All it takes is a few missed shots, turnovers, or not getting the ball when he wants it (i.e. last night in the 2nd half) and it completely takes him out mentally. I feel bad for him because the talent is...

    JJ Starling

    My guess is after the surgery, the staff has tried to reconstruct his shot. I haven't seen shoot around, but what I hear is that he's a little better during warmups when he has the time and patience. My guess is that once he's in game, he goes back to what's comfortable for him or he's trying to...

    Fran Brown

    And the fact Colorado can't play defense was also his fault lol

    Fran Brown

    Wouldn't mind Sean Lewis back in the OC role if he's open to it
  20. Jeremy L.

    Fran Brown

    Interesting. I'd rather have Chesney who has a proven record as a HC. JW cannot get distracted by the Georgia logo next to his name

    Benny

    One of them finished second in the league MVP voting (and should have won it), another led the league in three-point percentage, and another finished top 3 in 6POTY
  22. Jeremy L.

    Benny

    Yup. I'm pretty certain one of our players has done it the day of the game, mainly to get rest and relaxation before our games. Obviously not an hour before tip, but definitely on a game day lol
  23. Jeremy L.

    Benny

    I think we'd all like to know what's going on. At the end of the day, it isn't our business and it isn't their job to share it.
  24. Jeremy L.

    Benny

    Working on the pro side, I know for a fact half of our team takes part in 420 activities. If it's not impacting their play, let them do their thing

    ESPN + is a joke

    Spot on. Go on the ESPN+ app on any given college football Saturday and you can find basically any team on that app. They put the value in on the live events with guys like Chris Fowler, Kirk, etc. on the major network. But they know they'll get people to watch the poorly produced streams...

    ESPN + is a joke

    Correct! Outside of the freelancers running cam ops and the full-time directors, EP's, etc., this was all ESPN.

    ESPN + is a joke

    As somebody who works in professional basketball in the media field and is a major part in the television broadcast, this actually isn't the case. There is a dedicated crew for in-arena (what you see on the centerhung aka videoboard/jumbotron). These are hired out by the arena, so these would...

    Women’s F4/Caitlin Clark

    I work for one of the WNBA teams and I've grown such an appreciation for the women's game since my time here. Fundamentally, I think it's so much better than the NBA and it's players like KP that really show that.

    Fire and Sickness

    Here's the jersey that arrived today. Only complaint is that the color of the lettering/numbers are a lighter shade of orange. Other than that, zero complaints.

    Syracuse found something

    When Symir ran the show it was clear how different the team was with a facilitating point guard. Once Joe tried running the show again, hell broke loose.

    Fire and Sickness

    Still waiting on that one, but that was the last to be shipped out. Hopefully that's in the next couple of weeks.

    Fire and Sickness

    Should have clarified. I know they aren't actual legit "dunks" lol. But got them a few days ago. Obviously aren't 100% but would rather have these than the $800 on StockX

    A simple stat that speaks volumes

    Anytime I've ever mentioned Rick Pitino taking over (not from everybody here), I always seem to see negative feedback. Rick would do a complete 180 with Syracuse.
  36. Jeremy L.

    And I thought Buddy...

    He's a great spot up shooter but he has a way to go before settling on an NBA roster. He'd be a great overseas player but unless if he can tighten his handle and play respectable defense, there won't be a spot for him on an NBA bench.

    I'm changing my view on next season

    Digging a little deeper - that 2014 team average just under 15 3p/g attempted (311 in the country) and a total of 505 that season (included postseason). This year, we're averaging 23 3p attempts/game and that's 127th in the country.

    I'm changing my view on next season

    Bingo. Boeheim has said that the zone is forcing teams to make long shots. Unfortunately, teams can make three pointers at a rate nobody has ever seen before. For kicks and giggles, I pulled up the Villanova game from 2014 (Cuse won 78-62). Syracuse shot 7-13 from three point range that game...

    In game coaching is now terrible

    It’ll be the same thing with GMac or Red coaching. Go outside the family

    Jason Hart is the only Orange option I hope is considered

    I've been on the Rick Pitino train for a while now. If we're going with a tie to the Orange family, a coach with proven success, and can bring different flavor to the Hill, Rick would be the move IMO.

    They'd roll them off the floor and it wouldn't be close in my opinion.

    frustrated by modern game

    Every game here in Connecticut I've worked has been nothing but enjoyable. It's great basketball and the players are so talented. I really wish people would open their minds to taking it in for once rather than poo-pooing on it.

    frustrated by modern game

    I work for a team in the WNBA now and have found it very enjoyable. It gets a lot of hate for all of the wrong reasons (gender sadly, athleticism, no dunking, not very high scoring). I always tell people that hate women's basketball that if they go play pickup and they can't dunk and aren't...

    frustrated by modern game

    It's all about scoring and analytics now. I miss the days of a 62-54 win for the Cuse

    SU Targeting Robert Anae as New OC / Jason Beck as New QB Coach per Thamel and ESPN

    This would be a huge grab. An established OC with a legit offensive scheme? Sign me up.

    New Covid Protocols...

    You should absolutely go and have fun and support the team no matter how entertaining the product on the floor is. I just think it's silly that people are this upset over not being able to have food or beer at the game. It's 2 hours. If people want to food/booze bad enough, go to a bar downtown...

    New Covid Protocols...

    Point being, you should be going to the games to watch basketball. If you're that upset, don't go.
