That it doeswhen we go small - which i expect we'll see a lot of - (battle at the 3, brissett at the 4, boo in the middle) it'll look like a classic villanova squad: 4 guys who can handle & shoot with one true big holding down the inside

I've always like this method but it's never been Jim's madnesswhen we go small - which i expect we'll see a lot of - (battle at the 3, brissett at the 4, boo in the middle) it'll look like a classic villanova squad: 4 guys who can handle & shoot with one true big holding down the inside
Thanks for sharing!
Question...what’s your opinion of the team speed out there? Hard to tell I guess in this scrimmage format I suppose. I’m worried about lack of footspeed at the guard position. Yeah, there is some length and all that but they need to move their feet at both ends.
Very encouraging about Bourama. I’ve been pretty high on him. No surprise to me re: Chukwu.
Any player comparison for Oshae? Could be anybody anywhere. Thanks again.
Both teams score in the 60's during a scrimmage? That alone is troubling...
Next year is a loooong time from now. But yes, that is the mature attitude. I will endeavor to try NOT to live in the moment.Thorpe didn't play. With him, battle, Oshae and Howard, that is 5 players. Bourama is only going to get better. But the big thing is that we probably won't be all that good this year. Get experience and get ready for next year.
If anybody's worried after what they saw they should just relax
I saw a lot of guys who could shoot,handle
guys would pass rebound and play defense
I'm encouraged
Guard’s will be the strength of the team IMO. I’m more worried about the 5 and if we have enough shooting.
Not sure who to compare Oshae to. Jerami Grant athletically, but he can shoot.
This is unprecedented resignation from the fan base. We should never be in a position where we just want to cancel the season, and it’s one thing if someone like myself cries doom and gloom, but this is what some die hards are saying... and we haven’t even lost a game yet. Scary stuff.Next year is a loooong time from now.
Nobody wants to "cancel the season". Many, myself included, are viewing it as a "bridge year" or "development year" in anticipation of much stronger team next year. I'm going to really enjoy watching the growth & development of our youngsters through highs & lows, wins & losses. The experience that our 5 Frosh (Moyer included) will get this year is really going to pay dividends.This is unprecedented resignation from the fan base.

The wait-till-next-year band is nothing new... but it doesn’t usually start warming up until January. Maybe it’s the end of days.
let me, for one, make myself more explicit: next season is setting up to be fantastic. but i think this year - barring injuries - we will be better than anticipated. 20 reg. season wins/top half conference finish is the floor of my expectations.This is unprecedented resignation from the fan base.

Thank god for Dino. Usually we’ve already forgotten the gridiron and pinned our hopes and dreams on the hardwood. Now it’s the opposite. Dogs and cats living together. Cue bill Murray.
If anyone can take this group of known unknowns and turn them into a team, it’s Boeheim. Am I concerned about this team, this year? Yes. Will I go to every single game and cheer on the guys lustily? Yes. Do I have lowered expectations? Yes. Will I happily watch the development of the team? Yes.This is unprecedented resignation from the fan base.

If I had to guess I would say the rotation gets down to 6.5

You will see a walk-on playing (McNabb notwithstanding) meaningful minutes when:The walk on Bayer was GOOD and looked confident. Maybe Boeheim will play him? Maybe????
6. We reach the 6th OT & have run out of scholarship guards.You will see a walk-on playing (McNabb notwithstanding) meaningful minutes when:
- We are leading by 30 with under two minutes to play
- We are trailing by 30 with under two minutes to play
- We are in massive foul trouble
- We have had players suspended for eligibility or disciplinary reasons
- JB decides to show everyone he can win even playing walk-ons
7. Bjorn Calderon thinks he can beat Kevin Reese 1-on-1 and demands to see these walk-ons in action before he can make another outlandish claim.6. We reach the 6th OT & have run out of scholarship guards.
So Buddy won't play next year?You will see a walk-on playing (McNabb notwithstanding) meaningful minutes when:
- We are leading by 30 with under two minutes to play
- We are trailing by 30 with under two minutes to play
- We are in massive foul trouble
