    Should have recruited Boopie Miller last Spring...

    Postgame Thoughts... Bryant

    Haven't watched the entire game yet, but saw the final play. Watch which players move to the basket on both squad...every player that was physically standing except for one.

    Class of 2023 PF/C Drew Fielder (CA) Offered

    Fielder's dismantling of Estrella in that first clip will only be comforting if he's (the right) Orange.

    Class of 2020 C Quincy Ballard (NY) Transferring from FSU to Wichita St

    Ballard committed a month after the pandemic began and attended prep school. Don't really see what other options there could have been, considering the circumstances.

    Class of 2022 PG Judah Mintz (DC / Oak Hill) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

    Even if Judah commits to Cuse, that's awful journalism by syracuse.com. That's a fake Twitter account based on the actual Verbal Commits. What makes it especially bad is that per Verbal Commits real Twitter, that organization is based in Syracuse.

    Class of 2020 C Quincy Ballard (NY) Transferring from FSU to Wichita St

    Was worth a shot and it's not like Chino didn't have several other high-major offers (several ACC schools and Texas). A lot of coaches saw potential there.

    2022 Portal

    For the hell of it, I just did a sweep and it's pretty slim pickings (many have moved on from college ball or have not played up to rating). One stuck out and it would be a major long shot (he toed the waters at going pro last year). Jeenathan Williams of Buffalo (Rochester native). He's...

    ACC Games for Dec 17-18

    Louisville really had no shot in this one. Game was in Bowling Green, KY (city was just leveled by tornadoes).

    Class of 2022 247 summary

    Moyer took a redshirt for 2016-2017 due to injury. He came in with Battle and Thompson. https://www.syracuse.com/orangebasketball/2016/11/matthew_moyer_on_redshirt_decision_i_didnt_want_to_waste_a_year.html

    Moyer was in the class prior with Battle and Thompson.

    Class of 2022 PG JJ Starling (Baldwinsville / La Lumiere) Offered

    Question? Since Academics have been pointed to as a priority to JJ and his family...any chance he is looking to start college in January? We'd definitely have no room at the inn.

    Roy Williams Retiring / UNC hires Hubert Davis

    Slow play. Still four teams left to play/raid, remember.

    Symir Torrence Transferring from Marquette to Syracuse

    If you're referring to Symir (not being offered), he was offered.

    Kadary Richmond in the transfer portal

    Griff recruited Kadary (Brooklyn guys). If the account is true, imagine being Kadary and being a second choice TWICE for this program (only being offered after Jackson declined and now with not being given playing time he's earned).

    Day 3 Watch

    The one thing overlooked in the joy of UK having an awful season is that Lex Luthor was able to scout from his couch. SCARY.

    Georgetown's Qudus Wahab transferring to Maryland

    It's scary to think it...does Hurley end up getting both in the end?

    Class of 2022 PG Dior Johnson (NY / CA) Decommitted from Syracuse

    Is the Starling bridge (totally) burned?

    Class of 2020 C Frank Anselem (GA) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

    Yes. I believe the injury hurt his stock (tibial plateau fracture) - can only think he believes returning and playing out the season can help restore it. He will also only be 20 by the time next year's draft occurs.

    Class of 2020 C Frank Anselem (GA) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

    I've lived in Bowling Green for over a decade and at one point had WKU season tickets that supplemented my Cuse fandom. Bowling Green is a beautiful town and it's only an hour from Nashville and about two (with a time zone jump) to Louisville. WKU has great facilities and the fan base is...

    Class of 2020 C Frank Anselem (GA) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

    WKU will have a lot of guard talent next season (Hollingsworth will be a senior and he's averaged between 13 and 16 PPG in his career - should be front runner for C-USA Player of the Year) but lacks in the big men department. I think he would get a lot of run in the first season and have a lot...

    Class of 2020 G Kadary Richmond (NY/Brewster Academy) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

    I believe you're referring to VJ King who played at Louisville.

    Class of 2020 G Kadary Richmond (NY/Brewster Academy) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

    After some quick research looks like he graduated high school in the spring and this will be a post-grad. Richmond reclassed to '19 but jumped back to '20. Smart move as he's picked up a bunch of offers since doing so.
  24. AWMKY

    Class of 2020 SF Andre Jackson (NY) Offered

    Not going to pretend to know or care about UCONN's style of play (block it out every season). But after looking at their roster and the number of players with multiple years of eligibility remaining, not sure where early PT comes in (unless Hurley is openly telling recruits they can beat out the...

    Class of 2017 C/PF Moustapha Diagne (NJ) to Western Kentucky

    Disagree. While his playing career hasn't panned out, the kid has been a big part of his community (see link below). Many don't give back and he has. https://espnky.com/moustapha-diagne-named-spirit-of-service-award-recipient/

    Class of 2018 SF Frankie Policelli (New Hartford, NY)

    You're assuming that all of the transfers are leaving because they're not seeing the floor. That may be the case here and it may not. Life happens, things change. Also, it's not like these kids aren't sold a bill of goods by coaches that they may not measure up to built on the evaluation of a...

    Class of 2019 C Jesse Edwards (NL/IMG) SIGNED WITH SYRACUSE

    Is he active for the IMG game airing right now on ESPN?
  28. AWMKY

    So, we actually turned our noses up at Tremont Waters?

    One - it was a joke. Two - just did some research. Brunson's father was acquitted of charges. Three - why was he never on staff at Villanova?

    Class of 2019 C Jesse Edwards (NL/IMG) SIGNED WITH SYRACUSE

    Losing OO and Mitchell is more of a case of our drop in our perception of a powerhouse (which is ultimately on JB). We offered both guys at the eleventh hour - thats the problem. If we get Edwards, hopefully he is a diamond (and I hope he is).

    Class of 2019 C Jesse Edwards (NL/IMG) SIGNED WITH SYRACUSE

    While I would like to agree with you on all points (we do have the attendance), living outside of the bubble disrupts several of our advantages. If you watch Cuse via broadcast, a 30,000+ crowd sounds muted. While JB was a powerhouse nationally for a LONG time, currently he's not. Top 10 brand...

    I'd gladly take the Daddage for some National Championshipsages.

    Class of 2019 C Tre Mitchell (CT) to UMass

    We recruited this guy for fifteen minutes. Everyone here claiming bags needs to get it together.

    Frank

    Out of market fan (by way of relocating due to employment) and have watched all games via broadcast up until today and I was consistently on Frank's performance as the reason for our regression. After watching his play today at Littlejohn (made a trek to the game), I see a player who has lost a...

    Hughes

    Was at the game. He looks real shook. Gotta find the confidence again.

    Give me 5 Jerome's to coach, and I'm good

    Five Hunters all day. He can guard every position and is advanced offensively. If you go back and look at their loss to UMBC (Hunter was injured) in the tournament last year, they didn't have the speed to keep up with UMBC 1-5. Hunter hides UVA's flaws.
  36. AWMKY

    Frank was so bad

    It amazes me how Brissett doesn't take as much blame as Howard on this board. Mr. 3-12 (he was 3-13 tonight) was alive and well this evening. We need more from him.

    Class of 2019 CG Joe Girard III (NY) SIGNED WITH SYRACUSE

    Ennis was drafted four spots outside the lottery.

    Class of 2019 PF Isaiah Stewart (NY/LaLumiereIN) to Washington

    I feel like our recruiting business is pretty tight-lipped for the most part but does anyone know the last time JB went all in on a meeting (that came out and was out of the ordinary)? I may be wrong, but the last time that got some buzz was when he went to a tourney in the midwest to see...

    Class of 2019 PF Isaiah Stewart (NY/LaLumiereIN) to Washington

    "I really decided that I wanted to go to Washington two weeks ago," Stewart said. "I was bouncing around from school to school. I was strong with Duke at one point and Michigan State at one point." No mention of Syracuse. "Major factor," he said about Hopkins. "I’m a relationship guy. At the...

    Class of 2019 PG Symir Torrence (NY/Vermont Academy) Transferring from Marquette

    Five-Six guards minimum on roster next season (Battle leaves, Goodine and Girard in, Washington decision). No room at the inn currently. I'd say both parties are solid.

    What’s Next?

    There are rumblings that Marek may leave?
  42. AWMKY

    Class of 2019 PF Isaiah Stewart (NY/LaLumiereIN) to Washington

    I don't believe the NCAA screwed us on Diagne. He's had issues qualifying at every stop. He's also getting no playing time for a very average WKU squad this year. One could argue the outcome worked out for us favorably.
  43. AWMKY

    So, if Mike Hopkins phone rings does he answer or send to VM?

    Let me preface this with that I believe Hop is going to be a long term success at Washington. However, their season is looking at a lot like ours right now (they're 8-4 and have lost to all top ranked opponents - we thankfully have the win over OSU). Hop currently has a four-star SG (just...

    Quade Green to Washington

    This is dependent on landing Stewart. Currently Hop has a Top 100 SG and a three--star signed (in addition to bringing in Green mid-season).
  45. AWMKY

    Quade Green to Washington

    Which class are you referring to? Green's original class or the '19 class?
  46. AWMKY

    Unacceptable.

    Also one more observation...at the under 13 and the timeout at just over one minute to go in the cut shots it showed ODU's bench completely locked in to their head coach. In both shots for Cuse, side conversations going on between Cuse players and coaches.
  47. AWMKY

    Unacceptable.

    Finally getting a chance to watch this game. It's becoming increasingly tiring to have to watch Dolezaj used at the center position because Chukwu and Sidibe cannot handle their position. Thought we looked best at the end of the first half with Hughes and Dolezaj on the wings.

    Number state otherwise. High TO rate but was shooting at a high clip.
