Class of 2024 PF Donnie Freeman (MD / IMG) COMMITTED & SIGNED TO SYRACUSE (5/11/23)

[hoopsupstate]

Do I dare asked if Moore is still unranked?

Not in ESPN’s top 100. 247 Sports came out today with Moore at 53.

I want a McDonald's invite.

Red's very first* recruit is a 5 star. Not bad, Red, not bad.

*Moore committed while Boeheim was still coaching. Great job keeping him, but I consider Freeman to be Red's first recruit.

How about Wednesday lunch, on 7th North?

Absolutely, we were in on Freeman early, but then definitely lost favor. It seemed that we were out of the running until Red was hired, then bam.

I shudder to think what OIG will do for a happy meal.

More of a McDouble kinda guy, but usually I just order through the drive thru and pay.

Usually.

He is, and I'm totally gonna ask Biancardi about it

The wild thing is he’s rated closer to a 3 star than being ranked in the top 100(graded an 80 overall). Over the past few years he’s lower than Taylor, Bell, Copeland, Girard, and the same ranking as JBA. I think the others were all properly rated but its bizarre to me how badly Moore is mis-ranked.

Yeah, I totally agree. It's one thing if all of the other primary recruiting services had him outside the top 100, but as folks note here, Elijah is inside the top 60 and inching toward the top 50. That's a wide, wide disparity, IMHO.

Wonder how he will stack up to Bethea; they will likely be head to head at some point.

I see a young Jeremi Grant

Good comp. He has more skills then jerami did out of HS, but a tad less natural athleticism.

Then Red hired this guy, we got back in it, and then bam -

That is awesome, I can't wait to watch this game. It's funny, they have him listed at 6'-7".

BURGER BOOOYYYYY

We should have two McDonald's All Americans starting next year, no excuses not to make the tournament easily next year. No sweating it out.
