    Class of 2025 G Asher Elson (NY) Offered

    You never want to go crazy over a few highlight clips put together for social media hype etc etc, so I’ll be sure to keep my praise subdued and cautious— so from those clips of Asher Elson, he looks to be THE.GREATEST.BASKETBALL.PROSPECT.OF.ALLTIME. (I do find him to be an incredibly...

    Maliq Brown in the portal

    I’d reread your initial post. It’s confusing. I’m very sure I know what you meant but there are some incorrect names in spots and that muddies everything up.

    Why Ian Eagle ‘waved the white flag’ on late nights with Bill Raftery

    With all the drinking with Raf comments, I’ll tell a quick ~true Story: My dad used to drink with Raftery a bit and (according to his friends) once got into a bar “fight” with him in West Orange, NJ. (my brothers and I are very confident it was nothing more than a couple shoves that, as most...

    Class of 2024 PF Donnie Freeman (MD / IMG) COMMITTED & SIGNED TO SYRACUSE (5/11/23)

    Not disagreeing, just adding Carmelo’s heft/size and physicality on offense were otherworldly with his skill level.

    Maliq Brown in the portal

    Anyone on this thread who has downplayed, in any way, how good of a basketball player Maliq Brown is, really makes me shake my head. Unreal.

    Jim Boeheim Day

    "The Hero That Never Left" works in so many ways. And oh my god he (jokingly) called out Bell for his lack of defense

    NET and KenPom Tracker 23-24 (SU = 84 3/9/24)

    Thanks jncuse for, as always, explaining (not defending) how the KP system works. I think most people here have a general understanding of it, but your posts have always greatly increased, at least, my understanding of the how/why.

    Would love to see Red bring in an established ex HC next season

    Sorry, I am in no way sold on Autry as the long-term answer but this is absolutely ridiculous

    How 'Bout Some Justin Taylor Love?

    I’m a huge Taylor fan but I kindly disagree. On a team with the playmaking abilities of both JJ and Judah, Taylor should not in any way be the focal point of the offense. He could be (and I am hopeful he is) a GREAT complementary/shooter/dirty work piece, but the offense absolutely should not...

    How 'Bout Some Justin Taylor Love?

    This is not an anti-Bell (who has shown absolute improvement) post, but Taylor is the clearly better overall player to me. Huge fan.

    Benny suspended. Maliq still hurt.

    Didn't sound like anything too serious. Like people have been speculating, immaturity. Hopefully he learns from it.

    Benny suspended. Maliq still hurt.

    Heard over the weekend from someone who knows things that Benny will "be back by Colgate" Haven't been told anything different since.

    Forgive my ignorance, but is there a consensus/theory on who Cuse181 is a dupe of? Seems like he is one whenever I come across him..

    When’s the last season you were this excited for a team?

    2016-2017 Coming off the Final Four. After the Andrew White insanity. I remember there basically being the (sensible) guarded and cautious camp and the Final Four or bust camp. I was firmly in the latter. The difference here obviously is there’s nothing remotely resembling Final Four...

    Fwiw, I’ve heard to expect a 5pm announcement

    JB enjoying retirement

    Thanks OP. Seeing that got me more emotional than I was anticipating—I was very much on the “it’s (been) time to rip the band-aid off” mindset, but seeing that made me fully appreciate that—he’s really retired…Wow All the best coach, and thank you for everything.

    Hunter Dickinson

    Was reading some of the KU message board after this and the talk is Udeh and his “people” are upset and some are expecting him to hit the portal — especially since Hunter could potentially stay two years (amazing since it feels like he’s been around for a decade).

    Benny would be our biggest portal pick up

    It’s ridiculous. I had a LOT of issues with Benny’s game this season but his 39.6% 3 point percentage (on an obviously limited number of attempts) is NOT one of them
  33. Digger

    Benny would be our biggest portal pick up

    Under 40% for a forward (including non-high 3 point volume shooters) is not “terrible”. A 39.6 3-point percentage for Benny is, at a minimum, encouraging. To suggest anything else (including it being ‘terrible’) is silly. There’s a way to temper enthusiasm without going equally too far in the...

    Just have to add myself to the list

    I'm not unique here considering myself a diehard Syracuse fan. Every game has been basically appointment viewing/DVR watching for two decades. For the first time in the past 20 years I got home and realized I just completely forgot we played a game tonight (vs my most hated rival, to boot). I...

    Class of 2023 SF Marcus Adams (CA) Offered

    Agree completely. His skill-set and athleticism at 6’8 looks like a 5 star talent to me, the * in my post was just playing into the ongoing ‘Cuse commit ranking drop’ joke
