Maybe he's waiting until at least tomorrow so Carlos can have his day.

I also have significant Bo Stick skills.

Mark just confirmed 9 $100 donations to men’s basketball received so far. I told him that this group has followed through 100% on pledges so he can absolutely expect more!

Like most kids I assume he wants to work with Tipton edits and do his thing with his announcement.

 

[UpstateSM]

get the best paint defender possible...still a possible weakness, imo

plus, it oughtta be easy to get a big body without much in the way of offense to accept an end of the bench role

We already have a center who can block shots and do nothing else. The days of having four centers on the roster when most of them aren't good at basketball need to be over.

 

[AlaskaSU]

Wow, this is great. We finally got Dakota and we snag Jaquan to boot orange nation is on a roll. Throw in AO. Going to be an assistant coach with Gerry at Siena and you can call it winning the triple crown .

Siena is all orange and Preston gets a promo.

 

[RyanCuse44]

Fran could make a call to Lance Ware as our reserve PF/C

 

[RyanCuse44]

Is it only that one tweet "confirming" Leffew? or is there anything else that would suggest this is a done deal?

Mike McAllister has 100% Crystal Ball to SU which he did shortly after the Carlos commit.

 

[RyanCuse44]

The insiders here have suggested as such.

Plus I think it's on the pay side too .

 

[AlaskaSU]

leffew bell moore are all shooters...plus freeman is looking like a good shooter at the PF...cuffe can knock em down...starling has it in him


i think the team can use a paint defender in case naheem doesnt get back and davis doesnt match up well with taller PFs

Height is not all that matters. Is he a wide body?

i think a big PF is needed

davis is only 6.7...there's a good chance thats not going to cover a guy like Brandon Huntley hatfield at 6'10 very well

im not saying get another center

im saying get another Maliq...a PF that can guard the post

because imo after Freeman...which forwards can actually cover someone in the post?

bell cant. westry cant.

who can?

mcleod and patterson are also huge question marks at this point too

i would just grab a big body...

someone 6'10 or so who can play forward and maybe center a la maliq

With Dakota, we're in the Badlands now.

Yep , and I believe in the Promise Land

 

[Nicknack]

I'm just a bit surprised that Leffew didn't do the whole announcement thing broadcasted online where he is wearing a villanova jersey and then takes it off to reveal Cuse. Maybe he finally decided to go subtle?? In any event, very glad that Red got his guy!

 

[AlaskaSU]

This is all over the place.

1) Villanova "stayed in the family" and their team is in shambles. Any success going forward we have is on RED. Period. Not the family.

2) For the JB HATERS, We've won 0 games this year and haven't gone to the tourney in 3 years. Relax. I'm happy with the pick ups too, but these ITYS posts are insane.

Our reputation is not what it was but it is still better than most. I assume that Red's sales pitch includes our history and coaching stability. A walk through Melo Center is all about our history.
This is a win for us. Future is not guaranteed, enjoy the current news.

I agree about our reputation. We really need another natty, that would help.

Absolutely. Never suggested otherwise.

Danny Hurley speaks about Calhoun and UConn history all the time even though he didn't go there and wasn't in the "FAMILY".

We should use the history and, to me, I love that Red is Syracuse through and through. That said, ultimately, his success shouldn't be defined by it.

Was this supposed to be on the football recruiting side?

You win the fan forum for the year

Consigliere, I just donated $100 to men's basketball but I am sure I botched up the money going to Leffew. Could you tell Mark that my $100 is for Leffew? Thanks if you can.

 

[IthacaMatt]

Choppa and Bell on the floor together could be lethal.

JJ and Cuffe also both shot around 34% last year. That's a lot of guys who can make shots, plus Donnie Freeman is going to take a few.

I don't think we're using all 13 'ships this year. I think we want to hold the extra one open.
Another PF would be a "nice to have", but it's going to squeeze the 6 guards. Two of them might not play if we add yet another F. I think if Leffew joins, he and Westry have to be the SF depth, or else we are going to have a couple unhappy guys.
