not by himself. hes like a tyler ennis, but craftier.

So bye-bye fast break? Lol...

Green's a better shooter and more explosive, smaller than Ennis though.

He's pretty quick, but definitely a pass first consummate point guard type.

 

[HoustonCuse]

ok stupid question but how good do you think Green is - a national title kind of player?

He's an elite talent. The concern I have about him is size for the zone, but for a player like this you take that hit. Additionally, he is from Philly and the only thing good about Pennsylvania is Philly guards. They are generally tough as nails and tenacious competitors. Also, he showed out so well over the last year and especially at EYBL that many top level players will be taking note of where he is playing college ball. So getting him could lead to some domino effect. I mean a kid who comes up for a chat and just happens to bring the #2 player in the class with him? That is a baller.

FWIW - buddy of mine who is pretty hooked up in the AAU/recruiting cycle thinks this is how the pg situation will play out and once Trae or Duval makes his choice, it will start the domino effect
Trae - UK
Duval - Maryland
Tremont - Duke
Q - Cuse

I asked him about the tremont to duke. I didn't think they were working on him that hard?

Green is better than Ennis, IMO. Better shooter, and more big time players know him and respect him. He'd bring other top players to SU with him.

I could easily see it play out that way.

Jake have you heard of when we should expect an announcement?

 

[Jake]

This will play out well into the season.

Ennis on fast break was like watching the video in reverse.

Ennis on fast break was like watching the video in reverse.

 

[asj410]

Because Ennis would often dribble while running backwards down the court. Those silly Canadians.

 

[jordoo]

Yeah, I hear podcast and I think Dean Francis, but sadly nothing since July 6th (my birthday ironically).

I would think he will do one before the season starts to review where we are with things. A lot has changed since his last one.

That's for sure, can't wait to hear his thoughts and what he has been hearing.

*leaves thread, takes note to not re-enter until January*

He tweeted a couple of weeks ago that he was waiting to do the podcast until the Andrew White situation was resolved. Now that that has happened, I expect one to drop relatively shortly.

Are you telling me that Andrew White III actually exists and has committed to SU? I thought he was a fictional character that was used to get us message board addicts through the summer months.

Seriously that is good news though and I look forward to Francis' pods! Can't wait.

Mr. Rick Jackson sends his regards.

Don't even need to go back that far - Rak says hi, too.

Hi Rak!

Fwiw, 2nd hand info from a former player; he believes Green is a heavy SU lean. That was from today.

Hope that is true, because landing Green would be a domino that causes a lot of other things to go in our favor in the class of 2017.

I take him coming up against last weekend as a very good sign, given the amount of attention that he's garnered from Duke / UK this summer. Fingers crossed.

Is the former player, Jim Boeheim?

I can confirm this.

We need to do the math TOGETHER because I'm not sure how Duke is playing into this.
