Waters: Syracuse basketball in 'good shape' for 2017 targets - The Juice Online (the juice; Cheng & Waters)

Here are the highlights from the show:

Wes Cheng: Should Syracuse fans be getting a little worried that the 2017 class doesn’t have a commitment yet?

Mike Waters: I understand the angst. In a lot of years, Syracuse has one, two, three commitments. Sometimes Syracuse has had its entire class wrapped up and they’re already targeting younger classes. But if you look at this 2017 class, really, the top 50 kids, very few have committed yet. And very few of the kids who committed are Syracuse targets. […] Guys like Quade Green, Hamidou Diallo, Lonnie Walker, Brandon Randolph, Nick Richards, Billy Preston, all of these guys are still on the board and they haven’t really zeroed it down yet. And if they have, they’ve zeroed it down to four or five schools, and Syracuse is in the four or five. Syracuse is in good shape for all of their prime targets.

WC: Syracuse basketball practice started last week. What was the one thing that jumped out to you?

MW: Of the returning players, their size. Guys like Tyler Lydon and Frank Howard and Paschal Chukwu, they’re bigger. They’re stronger. Now, they’re not football players out there. Not one is going to look at Tyler Lydon and say we have a tight end or a defensive end on our hands, but they’re gotten bigger and they’ve added weight. Franklin Howard is up over 200 pounds now, and when he got to Syracuse a year ago, he was 180. Tyler Lydon was at 205 a year ago to about 223, 226 now. He just looks different through the shoulders and the biceps. With Paschal, you have to get up close to him and remind yourself what he looked like a year ago. At 7’2″, he’s never going to be hefty. He’s a tall thin guy, and is always going to be tall and thin […] he looks stronger through the shoulders and the arms.

TNIAAM Roast Week: Matt McClusky (TNIAAM; McClusky)

Ahhh…where do I begin writing about Shawn Shaun Seamus Sean Kelly Keeley? That poor Irish immigrant who so valiantly fought but ultimately lost his life on the Titantic lo those many years ago.

<What’s that? Sean Keeley is the blogger guy? Ohhh…>

Actually, it seems like it was just yesterday when Sean was the king of the Syracuse bloggin’ world, writing post after post. Remember that one time Sean wrote about why Syracuse basketball fans needed to calm down? Or that other time he penned the piece about why Syracuse football fans needed to calm down?

Good times, Sean, good times...

It’s unfortunate that John executed that hostile takeover of TNIAAM a few years back. Instead of getting not-so-different takes on how the sky isn’t falling on this SU team or that SU team, we now get brow beat with 4,000-word diatribes on the offense of Dino Babers and Syracuse football. John’s hijacked the out of the site, spending space describing what play Babers loves to run the most when his team is down 20 points in the third quarter while the harvest moon is in full view on the eastern seaboard.


You know what play that is? A SCREEN PASS TO A F#%^ING WIDE RECEIVER IN THE FLAT!

<deep breath>

Truth is, the roast of roasts was already written by the supremely-more-talented-than-I, Hoya Suxa. And furthermore, I can’t really fake hatred for Sean when I actually owe him a lot. It’s funny, given the fact that I have never once actually seen Sean in real life. For a good while, my wife was fairly certain that Sean was an Arabian Prince who had somehow gotten me mixed up in a pyramid scheme.

Rothstein - 20 Impact Freshmen For 2016-17 (todaysu.com; Rothstein)

In no particular order:

Jayson Tatum, Duke: If there was a physical definition of what a small forward is supposed to look like it would be of Tatum. The Saint Louis native has great size for a wing at 6-8 and always seems to play playing the game downhill. He’ll be a menace this season in Durham.

Harry Giles, Duke: Despite injuries to both of his knees over the past few years, Giles remains the top NBA prospect in college basketball. Armed with elite size, length, and athleticism at 6-9, Giles runs the floor like a deer and is an elite finisher. If this kid is healthy he’s the best overall talent in the sport.

Frank Jackson, Duke: Jackson may not be getting the same amount of attention as Tatum and Giles, but that doesn’t mean he’s not an elite freshman. A native of Utah, the 6-4 guard can play either back court position and could wind up being the key to whether or not the Blue Devils can give Mike Krzyzewski his sixth national championship.
...
...
Kobi Simmons, Arizona: This Georgia native is taking his talents to the desert and will likely play multiple positions for the Wildcats as a freshman. Simmons has great size for a point guard at 6-6 and is blessed with an uncanny ability to display his talent. Now comes the hard part: leading a team and being an extension of Sean Miller on the floor.
...
...
Dennis Smith, NC State: A table-setting point guard at the highest level, Smith’s knack for creating opportunities for his teammates will be apparent during the first drill of the first practice. Despite coming off a torn ACL, Smith should be more than ready to attempt to lead NC State back to the NCAA Tournament.
...
...
Jonathan Isaac, Florida State: Leonard Hamilton has always loved to coach wiry players and he’s got another one in Isaac. The 6-10, 233-pound forward will start for Florida State at the four and should regularly be a mismatch for opposing defenses. This is a one-and-done caliber talent.

Tyus Battle, Syracuse: Jim Boeheim had a dynamic scoring freshman last season in Malachi Richardson and now he’s got another one in Battle. The 6-5 wing should be an instant starter for the Orange and can score the ball from deep as well as the mid-range area. This is a big time talent.

Alterique Gilbert, UConn: Kevin Ollie loves dynamic point guards and he’s got one in Gilbert. This McDonald’s All-American is lightning quick in the open floor and should form a potent perimeter combination next season alongside Jalen Adams.

SU holding open auditions to perform National Anthem (localsyr.com)

On Friday the Syracuse University athletics department is holding open auditions for anyone interested in performing the national anthem before home sporting events.

The tryouts will take place Friday, Oct. 7, from 4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Manley Field House.

The 'Oh Say, Can you Sing' auditions are for individuals or groups interested in possibly performing the National Anthem at SU home athletics events.

SU faculty, staff, and students, along with the general public, can participate in the auditions which can be vocal or instrumental and must be done in 90 seconds or less.

SU Athletics Marketing and Promotions Coordinator Kerri Jennings tells NewsChannel 9, "We've had a saxophonist, a trumpet player, we've had groups, we've had younger kids, teenagers and student athletes.”

Auditions will be held on a first-come, first-served basis, and those auditioning are asked to be ready when they arrive at Manley Field House.

‘Oh Say, Can You Sing’ is now in it’s fourth year and has turned up many worthy performers. The school is spreading them out beyond the traditional athletic events like men’s and women’s basketball along with men’s lacrosse.

Jennings says, "Now we're scheduling for women's lacrosse as well as sports outside of the Dome, like men's soccer, so we're giving a live rendition at these sports where before it was just a recording."

Anyone who cannot attend the live audition on Oct. 7 are invited to email a video recording no later than Tuesday, Oct. 11.

Here is our portion of the CBSsports article about FF sleepers. Obviously this guy is skeptical and still doesn't seem to know our team all that well. I would think with our front line rebounding will be much better this year and we have 2 PG's.

Syracuse Orange: I initially thought the people ranking Syracuse after their run to the Final Four were crazy. They lost two fifth-year guards in Trevor Cooney and Michael Gbinije, who was criminally underrated last season, and watched the guy that sparked their Final Four run, Malachi Richardson, bolt for the NBA. They had two guards slated to be on their roster once Kaleb Joseph transferred.

But then Tyler Lydon decided to come back to school while the Orange dabbled in the transfer market, adding a pair of fifth-year grad transfers in John Gillon and Andrew White. Throw in a talented freshman like Tyus Battle and all 7-foot-2 of Providence transfer Paschal Chukwu, and suddenly things don’t look quite as bleak.

I’m still not convinced that the Orange actually have a point guard on this roster, but this may be the longest team that Jim Boeheim has ever had at his disposal. If Lydon takes a step forward, if Battle can be a significant contributor off the bat, if White can embrace playing a role, if this team can find a way to get a defensive rebound …

That’s a lot of ‘ifs’. I know. But Jim Boeheim is a Hall of Famer, and on paper, this group looks the kind of team he has success with.

"if this team can find a way to get a defensive rebound"? Does he remember Tyler Roberson?
