4 would be double his career average. Anyone with a pulse should be able to get 2 rebounds a game.

I did see that also. With the speed and all the movement going on it is a tough thing for officials to see and call on the court. When we get called for moving pics it’s a high top of the key ball screen Which makes it a lot easier for the officials to see.

They definitely expend a lot more energy moving without the ball than we do. Not being in practice it’s hard to know but I would guess they have multiple reads depending on what the defense does.

They have recruited players that listen to the coach and buy into a team concept both sides of the floor.

I agree zone could give them trouble but I think they move the ball and would still screen away from the ball. I would run a motion set very similar to their m2m offense to get Cam Spencer to the foul line. From there if our center stays back he turns and shoots. If we come up they cut from...

I hate that UCONN has been the most dominant team the last 25 years. They definitely have at least 2 lucky championship runs but watching the way they run offense is a thing of beauty. Really would like to see us bring in an offensive guru to be an offensive coordinator. Their movement...

I guess we are behind the times with our scheduling. Years ago they would joke that Boeheim only played tomato cans in NY. When we would miss the tournament they would refer to our weak schedule and RPI. Now we play a tougher schedule while the Big12 beats up on the sisters of the blind to...

He's the 3rd or 4th best player on the team right now. Other than not being a great shooter he has played fine. If JJ had just 5 more made 3 pointers on the year he would be shooting 39% from 3 and it still wouldn't have made a difference in our win loss record. The problem with this years...

Its talent and system. We ask our guards to create offense. Joe can slide in there and play less minutes and have the ball in his hands less. They use him for his strong points as a catch and shoot player. When used properly his efficiency has improved drastically.

I think people were writing JJ off way to quickly but his shot did look off at first. Confidence is a huge thing for shooters. Hoping he remains confident and shoots when they give it to him. One thing that did stick out to me though was the difference between home and away. Hopefully its...

Eric was not only a great player but just an all around nice person. Very humble and friendly. Hadn't seen him since his diagnosis. Was really hoping the next time I saw him I would be able to congratulate him on kicking cancers A**

JJ has not shot well but he has been he has been strong driving to the basket. Looks to be getting hit but not getting a lot of calls. He’s been the best passer, and better rebounder than expected. The problem is lack of production out of the other positions and lack of shooting. Was really...

But there's plenty of 20 year old projects where you can lay pipe in Cuse that don't cost a thing. The projects in Miami would cause a normal man to go bankrupt

He was a freshman starting in the ACC on a bad team. He wasn't sloppy with the ball at 1.5 TO and if you watched ND games he was the one taking low percentage late in the shot clock shots. Very few freshman are lights out 3pt shooters as freshman. Two of the best shooters Cuse have had, Joe...

You must not have watched him play any games other than against Cuse or you need to get your eyes checked

Syracuse doesn't get tax dollars from the state to subsidize the athletic department like UCONN

Seems like a downgrade to me.

Probation hurt, the Bernie Fine situation hurt, Jim Boeheim‘s age and uncertainty hurt the program. The move to the ACC gives coach Autry the chance to make Cuse basketball relevant again. I realize the northeast has a lot of talented basketball players but what channel is the Big East even...

We don’t have baseball or hockey and I’m pretty sure Ian McIntyre and Gary Gait are white ‍♂️

Boeheim retires at the end of this year and the university opens up the checkbook. Maybe after another sub par year in the NBA you could get Billy Donovan to come back to college. Otherwise we are looking at being an ACC bottom tier team playing games in front of more empty seats than full ones.

Not allowed to use memes?

So I'm assuming Syracuse took a 1 year self imposed post season ban. How many scholarships did we lose and how many wins did Boeheim have to give up this time?

As a fan who lives in Raleigh I wish they balanced the schedule a little more with the NC teams. Went from a year they played 4 games in NC to a year they wont play any.

Really wish he would stay. 3 years left to play and a lot of upside. We can’t continue to recruit low 4 and 3 star players and expect to win unless we can get them to stay and develop.

No coincidence that I used to be Otto from time to time

Been saying it all year. I think Jesse at the 5 on D and 4 on O with Frank switching. we would be better on D and still have 3 guys chucking it up on O. At least when they miss we would have some guys to go get it. Only downside I see to this is foul trouble but maybe if Jesse didn’t have to...

What should have been us instead of Rutgers?

At this point JB staying may be what’s best for JB but not what’s best for SU. Can’t afford to let the program slip anymore. We aren’t getting the caliber of player we need to compete for an ACC championship let alone a national championship

Bye week tests positive for COVID and Cuse gets the W

I would have liked to see Rakeem Christmas’ baby grand dad play here

What's minimum at UK right now? Got to be more than that.

Is it possible we decided to look at Long in case Rhule left Baylor and Dino was a candidate. Does 2 things here. Shows a commitment to go after top assistant coaches to hopefully help win and keep Dino here or possibly his replacement if he did leave for Baylor.

Will probably go to at least 2/3 of Liberty, NCSU, and Duke Maryland is 50/50 Having 3 games within 90 minutes of Raleigh in the same year is cool but I would trade one of those for another year

1) 25-6 2) 13-5 3) 2-1 4) 4-1 5) Battle 17.1 6) Brissett 7.8 7) Battle 36.2 8) Cuse 79 Duke 74 9) 56

My first guess would have been UCONN but then you said top 15 program so not sure who the other team is.

Hoffmann's already sponsor our bitter recruiting rival The University of Syracuse

We won them because they were all home games

Sounds like they were able to restructure his deal

If that little ding is $1,000-$5,000 that trombone costs more than my car and should have insurance

Nance is turrible. In studio I don't know if those guys even watch the games. After the game one of them said syracuse plays 3 guards and one had to play the back of the zone. Duke just picked what side they were on and threw over them.

Does that mean the terrible charge call at the end of the Michigan game potentially cost us the National Championship?

He may not be a great shooter as a freshman but he is probably the best post passer we have had.

Not saying he will get drafted this year but Boeheim seems to think he is a better shooter than he has shown. Richardson didn't really shoot the ball that well while here .37 FG% and .353 3P%

They are killing us with the pressure and blitzes. Since we have no run game we need to find a way to hit the tight end over the middle and run a couple screens.

A hard salary cap is only a piece of what players make. Endorsement deals are worth a lot more if a player were in NY or LA.

Both Nike and Adidas schools involved but I had been hoping we would at least use Adidas as a negotiating tool to get a better deal even if we decide to stay with Nike

Addidas has been paying big $$$ for college teams. How much does this NCAA basketball scandal hurt our negotiating position for uniforms and apparel?

UNC is not unique in the way they attack the zone. In recent years both they and Louisville have had success against the zone because they had more talent than Syracuse. The team that always bothers me is Pitt. They have had a lot of success against the zone by putting someone at the high...

It feels like another game that we outplayed our opponent and lost due to big plays. On offense LSU had 4 plays that accounted for 193 yards and 3 TD. On Defense they had the interception that led to the 1yd TD. Those 5 plays were the difference. The few big plays that we have usually come...

Glad he said education and not laptop
