JB's presser remarks on recruiting

[Cuse House]

He reiterates what some have been saying, we are fine and Cuse basketball will continue to compete at the highest level. It sounds as if however he is remarking directly at those who question going after one guy. Does not sound like he will change that approach if he really likes a player.

Easy to say when ur PG is playing like Howard

 

[OrlandoCuse]

I'll take Howard as a junior over any one and done PG in the country.

How long before a 6'5" legitimate PG begins to hit people's draft boards?

 

[Cuse House]

He is a rather unknown guy nationally. Wasn't a big factor for us last year so it would take some games like at Wiscy and then into ACC games for him to start turning heads. Definitely possible, but he will have to sustain these efforts deeper into the season.

if he has a big March w/ SU highly ranked...

 

[SoBeCuse]

Boeheim's been on this board or listening to the pods, ha.

Does he really look like a pro?

He looks a lot like MCW to me, especially if he continues to shoot reasonably well.

Jim Boeheim talks recruiting following Quade Green: 'There's no disasters that have happened'

 

[CuseAJM]

He looks a lot like MCW to me, especially if he continues to shoot reasonably well.

MCW's downside was his lack of shooting ability and he led the NCAA in turnovers. Although it's early, Frank is playing better than MCW did.

If he continues to shoot reasonably well, then he'd look NOTHING like MCW. ; )

 

[Louie and Bouie]

Love JB tackling this issue head on for the naysayers. The program is bigger than one recruit.

Frank definitely looks like MCW with a jump shot. If we weren't loaded at every position, I'd be worried about him showing out and going pro.

...still kind of am.

.....because we're Syracuse (the team that sends 4 star recruits to the NBA early with absurd regularity)

Lost - Boo Harvey Replacement - Sherman Douglas
Lost - Julius Hodge Replacement - Hakim Warrick
Lost - Michael Lloyd and Kenny Anderson - Replacement - Z Sims

I am sure there are others.

you kid right?

I understand that folks want to get excited about the present and forget about the past a bit, but MCW legitimately led the entire country in assists, steals & minutes as well.

 

[PhatOrange]

you kid right?

You think he does? I see a kid who looks like he's learning to be a point guard and he's done well against 3 scrub teams. Let's see how he does in the ACC before you guys all have him drafted

Marbury -- Sims
Anderson -- a year later turned into Autry but that tremendously hurt that 89-90 squad. I can't begin to think what would have happened with Kenny Anderon on that team - ugh.

that's the real headline . . . supposed dinosaur is more deeply embedded in social & communication networks than previously thought

Thank you. I love frank and his potential but MCW was a really, really good player despite his lack of shooting. Frank's not st that level yet.

Wasn't Marburg actually David Patrick? That wasn't awesome.
