very multiple.

I thought cuffing season was over...apparently not

Guard U. I’m so excited for this brand of basketball. He has a clear cut vision and identity of what Cuse bball is going to be. This is why I was so excited for Red to take over bc of the radical shift with how this team will play.
And the other thing, look at how all these kids say “connection with Red”, the kids love the HEAD COACH and hear from the HEAD COACH. Red knows how good this opportunity is and he is putting some serious players together. I love it

So far, Autry has outperformed expectations on the recruiting front. Love it. In game coaching will be a test but can't help to love everything he's done thus far.

"I feel our backcourt is going to be real scary.’’ - Cuffe

“Judah’s my boy, too,’’ Cuffe said. “I’ve known him since I was little. If he comes back that only adds more value to us and makes us that much better.’’ - Cuffe

It's neither here nor there but I wonder how frustrated Red had been.

Can you imagine having to go along with JBs recent philosophies on basketball? Why have more than 8 recruited players on a roster, what could go wrong with that?

I don't think so... He looks a lot bigger in this video than in his high school highlights. Clearly did some lifting in his two years off. I was hoping it would show he hasn't lost his bounce, but no way to tell from that "workout." He doesn't have any major flaws in his shooting stroke, at least.

With Westry, Carey, Patterson and now Cuffe, we have a full four player freshman class. In eligibility, that is.

Yeah, good call on him looking bigger. It doesn't appear to be a super strenuous workout. So, maybe he isn't a full go yet. But, it is good to see him moving that well.

This could be with an eye on 2024. Give a development year with some minutes, slot him in as a starter next season if JJ, Judah, and Chance go NBA.

i feel like after that knee injury, might take him a year to reach full speed

The most multiple.

Still talking about arousal?

 

[TheHaze315]

This program needed more talent and athleticism in the worst way and that’s what Red has given us this offseason, from the portal to landing Donnie in ‘24, I’m not sure we could’ve asked for more. If he can coach is still tbd, but Red has a plan for this program and this team and he’s executed it masterfully so far. Excited for hoops for the first time in a long time.

 

[OHIORANGES]

We are back!
Syracuse Orange Baby!

I wanted to say Syracuse Orangemen!
But didn’t

 

[Cheriehoop]

A hidden gem with such a deep roster, is the competitiveness and intensity that should exist in every practice. These kids want to play and they will have plenty of competition for every spot to earn their playing time. They will have to improve, stay focused to improve both offensively and defensively.

 

[MSOrange]

Who knows how good Kyle can be? Hard to tell when he hasn't played. But I am excited that we'll have options. If we're going to get someone's sloppy seconds, you could do worse than KU.

 

[M2MPrinciples]

Some of you are talking reckless with these Stevie comps. Let the kid play some meaningful basketball first.

 

[Charbroil]

I still have a lot of questions about this year’s team and I’m probably more pessimistic than most that they will be tournament quality.

But overall I think Red is handling this first offseason well given the unexpected departure of Jesse and the likely departure of Judah. He’s injecting some enthusiasm into the program for sure.

Crushing the recruiting...

 

[jordville]

And check some of the top comments...

 

[kidorange]

I said it after Westry commit and I'll say it again. Tons of eligibility with guards that have already transferred once. Combined with our large class from last year, we have a solid core for the future. A ton of guys capable of stepping up. Seems like we're building the way most of the recent NC winners were built.

 

[jordville]

We're ready... and can't wait!

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

Hell of an athlete before the injury. This is the type of guy teams who play pressure defense have to have. Someone who plays 8-10 minutes and just makes plays with their athleticism. Love depth addition here.

 

[CardiacCuse]

The dude levitates!

couple of those dunks gave me verry strong Waiters vibes

wow...he's got bunnies!

but the highlights were from 19-20? 4 years ago???

EDIT - just read up and see he had knee injuries - read the kansas thread...some are high in him but a lot of doubters too...they said St Johns and Pitino passed ...which if true is interesting

 

[bozophobe]

Breaking - Cuffe has rescinded his commitment to Syracuse University. Too many puns on his name.

Okay, only kidding. But don't sour the milk!

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Yeah they worded it 10x better than me (I totally didn’t just rip the bong and had just gotten done milking a head of goats right before the news and my mini write up) lol

This is amazing.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

We are gonna see MONSTER DUNKS
