Yes. I said that.

It was a huge turning point, IMO, whether there was 30 seconds or 3 minutes left. I can't recall whether or not Divincenzo would have been shooting free throws there, but the refs took the ball out of the Knicks hands while they were holding a lead and gave the Sixers a possession they didn't...

Interesting that he's listed in the staff directory, but there's nothing out there officially: https://www.siena.edu/faculty-and-staff/person/arinze-onuaku/

The overturned call on Lowry was absolutely in the waning minutes and it was an atrocious call. And of course, Philly came down and scored on the possession immediately after the overturn, so it was a massive blown call. How in god's name could the refs look at this in replay and decide to...

This might be the most underrated aspect of having seats. Even the backs on the benches didn't help prevent this. Nothing worse than the back of your shirt getting wet from a spilled Bud Light three rows back.

Benches can have backs on them (as the ones on the first level did). That doesn't make them a seat.

What did I just watch?

Playoff Randle being replaced by playoff Brunson.

Oof. I mean, again, this is a better option than benches but man these things look cheap as hell and I question how much wear and tear they will be able to endure.

Interesting. A row of chairs without armrests is just a fancy bench.

I know he has had injury issues the second half of the season, but man, Haliburton looked like a shell of himself out there. Many offensive possessions it looked like he wanted to be nowhere near the ball. It was strange.

Seems like it.

And also apparently an NIL collective partner:

Sure for the AD. Fundraisers’ job performance reports aren’t generally tied to team performance, however. If I were a gift officer working for an organization that had no problem passing one of my donors off to another organization, you’d better believe that I’d be arguing for a major shift in...

I will say that while there are federal data privacy laws, it does vary pretty considerably from state to state as far as what an organization is and isn’t allowed to do with constituent data they have collected. California, for instance, has incredibly strict data privacy laws and the fines for...

Have to agree here. People can spend their own money however they please, and I would never judge anyone for donating to an NIL collective - and selfishly, as an SU fan, I’m glad there are people who do - but I would never. I have a finite amount of money that I can allocate each year to...

Possibly? I know SU has my email address though, since I get emails all the time.

Idk where the emails came from. I didn’t get an email from any collective. And it really shouldn’t come as a surprise that fundraising folks up at SU might not want to willingly hand over their donor info to an outside organization when your job is dependent on hitting goals and metrics related...

Legit question (and maybe it’s been answered in here somewhere already): how would NIL collectives get contact info for folks here in the first place? I can almost assure you that the university isn’t sharing that info with them (though maybe that changes some with the rule changes regarding...

Yeah I feel like they aren't being slept on, it's just that no one is talking about them because most have already penciled them in as heading to the finals.

Yeah, I'd still rather have the option than not, but it's definitely not as valuable as it used to be, especially with how early it has to be exercised. I still don't love the idea of trading out of the first round, regardless, unless you're trading for a player or you're trading a future first...

Donation Endows Men's Basketball Head Coach Position As announced at Campus Conversations yesterday, a $1 million gift has established the Wright, III '85 and Cathy Lassiter Endowed Head Men's Basketball Coach. The gift is the first seven-figure athletic gift in College history and the first...

This actually goes into detail on it, and actually argues that they aren't as valuable as they used to be since the value of the option was restructured in 2018, so idk: https://www.pff.com/news/draft-nfl-contracts-primer-how-much-cap-space-teams-need-fifth-year-option-deep-dive-and-more

I don't like trading out of the first round, because you give up that 5th year option. I think you should only be trading that first round pick for either a higher first round pick or a player.

I don't know who's a bigger idiot here - Porter for throwing his NBA career or the guy he was feeding info to. How dumb do you have to be to not think that an $80k bet on a Jontay freaking Porter prop might set off a few red flags?

Everyone in college is 1 and done now - just not to the NBA but to whomever makes them the best offer.

My god, no wonder Lebron bounced outta town without signing with the Knicks. Cringe level 100.

Soup and hot coffee.

Not since 2006 and I don't think there were many people mad about that.

Not to be that guy, but technically Clarence is a good old-fashioned grad transfer, no?

I haven't read the whole thread, but are there actually people that have suggested he could play the 3? That's...a take.

It's not an NCAA rule though, right? It's a student visa issue, I'm pretty sure, which has pretty strict limits on the ability to earn money while in the U.S. (although I could and have been wrong many many times before).

I stayed at the Delano the weekend of the ND-BYU game at Allegiant. Great location for the game and it’s kinda nice to stay at hotel without a casino while also having access to the entire Mandalay property. I didn’t think it was too difficult getting to the rest of the strip with the monorail...

Dude has been on an absolute tear lately. Knicks have a legitimate shot at the 2 seed with games against the Nets and Bulls while Milwaukee has to play at OKC and at Orlando.

It's ok, but it's certainly no Tusk.

This kid is literally playing in the NBA and we're still out here questioning whether or not he belonged at a program like Syracuse. And we're getting mad because there is a solitary thread on a Syracuse message board dedicated to discussing an alum who is currently playing in the NBA. Ok.

I tried to buy the hoodie but the only size available is XS so maybe I’ll buy that and get a Time Machine back to when I was 7 years old and it will fit me. Also, it’s a really exclusive club for the OVO NCAA apparel. Us, UCLA, Kentucky, Kansas and UNC. The Cuse brand still carries weight. Now...

Rochester November 2nd

Yeah and half the time you're connecting through a city that isn't much closer to Vegas anyway, so it's still a 4+ hour flight to Vegas even after your connection.

If you fly the weekend before, it's $273 round trip, so definitely way jacked up for that weekend.

Worst case scenario in 5-10 years the Dome is a post-apocalyptic Mad Max style event center. The wifi and sound system will still be terrible though.

I could be wrong but I assume it's because the upstairs will be an expansion of the concourse which will be above the outdoor walkway & entryway for the first level.

Yeah it could blow up in their face for sure. On the flip side, I'm guessing they never had any intention of keeping him beyond next season and they are hoping that they get an extra motivated contract year Diggs for one year.

I don't know. In 24 years prior to the championship (1978 to 2002), Boeheim landed 12 McDonald's All-American recruits out of high school. In 13 years after the title (2003 to 2015), he landed 8. Doesn't seem like a drop off to me. The real recruiting drop off happened after the 2016 class...

That was a rumor some years ago. Perhaps just a board rumor that grew out of nothing, though. The framework document with a new "campus building opportunity" in that exact spot would probably be the most actual smoke surrounding that rumor, I guess.

Interestingly though, the 2023 refresh document labels this "2017 Campus Framework"

I'd venture that's the previously discussed hotel and/or dorm structure. It is notable that it did not appear in the 2017 version (below) but does appear in the refreshed 2023 version.
