    Class of 2025 SG Kiyan Anthony (NY) COMMITTED & SIGNED TO SYRACUSE (11/15/24)

    I didn't get a chance to watch the game until I got home from work, but avoided social media and the board so that I could enjoy it "pseudo live". That was quite the show by Kiyan with those bombs in the 2nd quarter -- had no idea he had that kind of range. As another poster referenced, the...

    A first for me.

    It is still my favorite weekend of the year, particular the first two days with 16 games each day (and often all 4 regions in progress at the same time). The only thing I miss is the annual March Madness Vegas trip I used to do with the boys for 20+ years. That was absolute paradise for the...

    Quadir Copeland transferring to NC State

    Despite the turnovers, had a huge game -- 16 pts, 7 rebs, 5 ast, 2 stl, as his team shocked Clemson. At the end of Sunday's Selection Show when the studio hosts were giving their picks, the great Clark Kellogg picked Clemson to go to the Final Four and also to reach the Championship game. Oops!

    Cuse + 8.5 tonight

    This sounds too high to me. First off, FSU just beat SMU on Saturday. Secondly, as I mentioned in the FSU gameday thread early yesterday morning (when I predicted the win I might add), we are peaking at the right time. The streak of 5 consecutive games that I referenced where we have had...

    FSU Postgame

    Kyle Cuffe is the man!! And we were all killing JJ all game, but he hit 3 big shots down the stretch -- credit where credit is due. That game was not good for the heart, but I'll take it!

    2025 ACC Tournament [Charlotte]: Mar 11-15

    Oh yes -- what a heartbreaker at Barclay Center -- we had a 1-point lead with 3 minute to go -- Jimmy Jr. with the game of his life.

    BC Part II Post Game

    No sir. What you are forgetting is our miracle comeback in the 2nd OT. We were down 7 with under 2 minutes to play. Quite honestly, I thought we were cooked at that point. Additionally, at the end of the first overtime, when JJ missed the 2nd FT with 30 seconds left, BC got to hold for last...

    Yes, in essence he told Eddie to "hold my beer"!

    BC Part II Post Game

    We are headed to the Dance baby! With a 3-game lead over BC, plus the season sweep over them, I don't see us missing the ACC Tourney now (and we'll probably find a way to win another game or two).

    This is insane, 10-13 from three -- so happy for Buddy! That video was a very enjoyable watch -- I really do miss that sweet stroke of his.

    I did a commercial with Melo, Kiyan, and JB yesterday

    In fairness, Mike Waters reached out to Dasher, asking if he could reach out to me -- Mike wanted me to call him. But I knew he would want more specifics on the commercial and I didn't want to give that up prior to it's airing.

    This is great -- thanks for posting E! And it is good to know our friends over at the Post-Standard read our board (certainly it must be a treasure chest of information for them).

    Cuse +3.5 dome dogs to ND

    Great call Eric! I usually always appreciate it when 690West or someone else posts the spread (since I can't see it on DraftKings as a NYS resident). Although unfortunately, I never can take advantage which is very frustrating (I live too far from NJ now and don't have "a guy"...).

    Post Game Notre Dame

    With one of those assists being a spectacular behind-the-back pass to Davis. And despite not showing up in the box score, we would be remiss not to mention the energy and emotion he brought all game long -- it definitely rubbed off on his teammates.

    I did a commercial with Melo, Kiyan, and JB yesterday

    Yes, having a real speaking line is one way to get into SAG. The more conventional way is to get 3 waivers (for filling in for what would normally be a union role, perhaps based on the look and/or their need). In general, most productions are usually required to have a minimum of 25 union...

    I did a commercial with Melo, Kiyan, and JB yesterday

    As a few of you know, I have been doing the background acting on and off for a few years now. I subscribe to a service called "Casting Networks", which e-mails the new gigs being filmed in this area. So late last week, the e-mail post description just said "basketball fans needed for an AT&T...

    Kyle McCord to NFL Draft

    Yes, but Nassib was drafted in the 4th round, just 14 months after Eli won his 2nd Super Bowl (and SB MVP) in four years. Nassib was not drafted to replace Eli, who was still in the prime of his career (played 7 more seasons after Nassib was drafted).

    BC lost to that terrible Georgia Tech team by 21. Not sure how that is even possible, but that tells you all you need to know for this afternoon.

    Kyle McCord to NFL Draft

    Explain to me how the all-time season passing yardage record-holder in the history of the ACC can be classified as "sub-elite"? Also, the guy rarely loses -- career 22-4 as a starter. Since you said "another", it sounds like you are comparing him with DeVito, but the reality is that Tommy was...

    Kyle McCord to NFL Draft

    yeah, the Giants were the first thing I thought of as well. With Watson out for the season now, there is a good chance that Cam/Sanders will be both be off the board at #3. So thinking the GMen should wait until the 2nd round (3rd pick, 35th overall), and there is a decent chance that one of...

    Georgia Tech Postgame

    The problem is that his shooting has been atrocious over the last 4 games: FG -- 8-32 (25%) 3pt -- 3-19 (16%)

    Georgia Tech Postgame

    You beat me to it! Also (and perhaps more importantly), we are back on the bubble. I am referring of course to the ACC Tournament. Coming into today, we were out, but now tied with all the 1-win teams for the last couple spots. Three teams will not "dance" (albeit not the real Dance).

    ACC Tournament Hopes

    No, not only have we never made it to the Semi's, there has never been an ACC Tournament where we even won two games. Very sad considering the fantastic history in the Big East Tourney.

    Wildhack is on the Clock

    Wow, Marc Guley -- talk about a "blast from the past". Our family moved to Cazenovia in the mid-70's and Marc Guley was my gym teacher at Burton St Elementary (Cazenovia School System). Guley was a good instructor too in terms of the fundamentals (at least at that age) -- I learned how to...

    This doesn't make sense to me. Based strictly on the number of new posts here (post win) mentioning Gator, I would think that one would be the one over 50%.

    Illegal Formation Flag

    I was hoping there would be a thread on this -- I was so incensed by the whole sequence, namely the lateness of learning about the flag. On TV, they had already showed a couple replays of the TD and they said the PAT team was already setting up on the field. Additionally, on the broadcast, the...

    So here’s where I’m at..

    I appreciate the optimism. From your lips to God's ears. The only issue that you haven't taken into account is that despite the fact that November will be coming to a close in less than a week, our beloved Orange still do not have one single quality win. Or even if not true "quality", they...

    Post Brooklyn Beatdown

    JJ "crumbled" in 2nd half? He had 14 in the 1st half and 13 in the 2nd half. As for the game, I thought Red had a better night than Thursday -- much better usage of the bench (9 guys with double-figure minutes). I like what I see from Petar M -- he hustles and seems to know the game (it was...

    Class of 2025 SG Kiyan Anthony (NY) COMMITTED & SIGNED TO SYRACUSE (11/15/24)

    Thanks guys -- we got super running conditions yesterday which certainly helped the time. Fantastic day in the city -- the spectators are so loud, particularly in Brooklyn and Manhattan.

    Class of 2025 PG Luke Fennell (Australia) COMMITTED & SIGNED TO SYRACUSE (10/23/24)

    My Take

    You're so right about Meeks -- he seems to be the man on nearly every big play (with a few to Gadsden sprinkled in). It's ironic that his sudden explosion over the last 3 games (29 catches for 344 yards) has coincided with his fellow Georgia teammate Haynes being out.

    So About That Game Thread

    And this came a week after the FG debacle last week vs HC. If I was running the show he would be gone today. To literally hand UNLV 14 free points is a fireable offense just on its own.

    G Tech opens -1

    It appears that it is still +3, however, IMO the "impressive" win by GT over the previously perceived powerhouse FSU is completely devalued now. So in light of the wonderful FSU developments over the past 2 weeks, thinking now that SU +3 at home is pretty good value as I don't anticipate...

    NCAA Elite Eight Games for Sun March 31

    Yes, 5 straight wins in the ACCT, followed by 4 straight in the NCAA Tourney (including a 1-seed UNC and a 2-seed Marquette during that stretch, as well as 2 wins against Duke) -- just terrible! Curious, is he the worst in the country Cuse181?
