I'm not sure about the current recruits, but I hear Jerami Grant is up to 8'6.

And yep, I believe this year the Cuse-UVa series is home and away. I think it's home and away the following year as well, and then just a home game in 3 years.

I was glad to see this. Carleton is no gimme - about as tough a exhibition game as you'd want. Good scheduling - one easier exhibition game, one tougher.

No, Jersey Mike's would be like Notre Dame or Ohio State. Rutgers is like a three day old tuna sandwich from a gas station. That was first accidentally dropped on the bathroom floor.

It'll be close. I think we'll both be right around 5th in the ACC. Here's the big question in my mind - would you rather have a proven, solid 3 star back-up guard like Clark starting at the point, or have 2 unproven 4 star recruits fighting it out for minutes at the point like Carey and Goodine?

So we're set in the backcourt with triche, Devo and gillon. All 3 should see serious minutes. We're set at center and power forward with mookie, mccullough, and warrick splitting time between those 2 spots. Seems like we can really use a small forward who can drill the 3. What do you guys...

That all sounds reasonable. Just earlier today I said uva was at least a top 15 team. Gun to my head, I'd say they're top 10-12.

My quick take on our depth chart for players with best chance for pt: PG: 4* Jalen Carey; 4* Brycen Goodine SG: Buddy Boeheim; top NY state HS scoring champ all-time Joe Girard SF: Eli Hughes F: Quincy Guerrier; Robert Braswell (2 time SC state high jump champion - 6'9 3 point shooter but a...

Like Brissett before him, Guerrier was the national player of the year in Canada. Similar in some respects to Brissett - but I expect Guerrier to be a better long range shooter but not as good on the boards. Plus, anytime you're talking about a true freshman, you never know how much time it'll...

Yep, exactly. Bennett got a little lucky - the first two times he saw Jerome play, he was actually there to watch someone else. After the first time he saw Jerome play, Bennett said he was impressed, but then forgot about him. The second time Bennett saw him again a year later, it was also by...

I would rank it in this order - 1. Sidibe (if healthy obviously) crazy upside, just look at those handful of games where he could actually, god forbid, jump. Pitt, I'm looking at you! 2. Oshae - i think 1 of these 2 will get most improved player in acc. Once he either improves 3 pt efficiency...

At this point nothing would surprise me. We know boeheim isn't going to play more than 8 once his rotation gets set (if that). And it seems frank, tyus, jalen are the backcourt, ob, marek and hughes the forwards, plus the 2 centers. So it'll probably just come down to whether it looks like...

Exactly. Our depth gives us so many options. Assuming frank, battle, brisset, dol, and chukwu start, carey will get real pt spelling both guards, and hughes will get real pt spelling battle and brisset and dolejaz, with either brisset or dolejaz playing PF on offense when hughes is in at...

What can we expect from Robert Braswell next year? I'm pretty excited about this pick up! Sounds like we might have found a real under the radar gem in this kid. But I don't know too much about him, other than he played in Germany where he developed guard skills and he didn't really play on the...

You can rule out center. When has she ever blocked anyone taking it strong to the hole?

January 28th Omar Cook Gregg Popovich Mark Madsen Andre Iguodala Tony Delk First off the bench: Either Daunte Culpepper or Barbi Benton, depending on the matchup.

Any word on how it went this weekend?

Arizona and Louisville both great calls. An interesting comparison might be to UVa - both are best known for its distinctive and highly effective defensive system run by its elite coach. The first thing people think of when they think of UVA is tony bennett and his pack line defense - a system...

I'd want the ball in gillons hands with robey down low, white and lydon out on the wings, and a center setting a high screen for gillon to play off of, read the defense accordingly. look first for an easy bucket for robey down low, then for either white or lydon if then can get an open look, or...

Michigan in the bits I've seen of them have looked really good. if south carolina can even just stay with michigan and keep it close, then we'll know sc is legit and we'll have to bring our A game to beat them. That being said, i predict michigan beats SC by 3 and we beat them by 10.

I heard similar things about alcohol and excessive partying playing a role in his first suspension, but have heard nothing specific about his dismissal .

It definitely hurts but uva will still b a top 10-ish team. reuters looked good off the bench, so he'll just get more minutes now , plus i think 1 of the 2 four star freshmen they're redshirting might b a big, so they might just pull that redshirt and play him this year. but if not, and they...

I actually live in Charlottesville and have been a season ticket holder for the past 5 seasons, and my take is that Syracuse is being a little underrated and that UVa is being rated about right. I think we will win this year because we're playing UVa at the Dome, but if we were at the John, then...

B Battle. he had a sick dunk! boeheim called it after that . didnt even let thompson go.

21.

your best bet is to just keep checking stubhub a couple times a week. but the key is, like someone else mentioned, find out when the day single game tickets are made available, then check that day and everyday after that on stubhub, and you'll find a reasonably priced ticket.

I completely agree with everything you said. My money is lydon as 6th man leading the team in minutes played.

I think gillon and battle emerge as the key leaders on this team.

That would be awesone if gillon could go back to those shooting numbers, but wasn't he primarily a sg when he shot 39% and playing off the ball, and then his numbers dipped a little when he became a pg with more ball handling responsibilities? Hope I'm wrong about that. Would love to have 3...

Exactly, very good problem to have! And I agree, Lydon I don't think (or hope) will play any minutes at C out of necessity, except maybe when extreme foul trouble issues arise, and I think most games he will not play a single minute at C, but I think there will be games where he'll play a bunch...

Hey Brooky, Rob from rivals here. I think this is pretty dead on accurate. The only tweaking I might do is to go with Lydon getting a few more minutes at SF from White and at C in certain situations against certain teams to take advantage of mismatches. I don't see Lydon getting less than 34 or...

Yep, their style of play is maddening. Living here in Charlottesville, though, that made it so much sweeter watching that beatdown against UVa last April after having to listen to everyone saying how bad they were going to beat up on the Cuse! The fans at least were totally looking past us...

I hope they do take a step back, but as high as I am on our team this year, UVa looks like they've reloaded very well and will be a tough game. They return Perrantes, who is as good as any PG in the country, and bring in Austin Nichols, who would be in the NBA right now in all likelihood if he...

I hope you're right. Its not unrealistic to think howard will be much improved this year, but I'm still guessing that gillon starts and howard gets significant minutes off the bench. It was good to hear devendorf et al positive reviews of his game this summer. They got it exactly right with...

Hetes a few variations Starting lineup: Gillon, white, lydon, Roberson, coleman Fast break/pressing lineup: Gillon, battle, white, roberson, lydon Big lineup: Howard, white, lydon, Roberson, chukwu Best overall lineup balancing offense and defense : Gillon, battle, lydon, Roberson, chukwu

I hear duners is terrific. I need to get over there!

I actually live in cville. All great restaurants you mentioned. While you're still hear, make sure to try ivy inn and maya, my 2 favorites. Maya has twelve dollar tuesdays which gets you an entree and side - best deal in town. Also oakhart social has great small plates.

Such good news. Agreed we should have a full 8 man rotation. PG Battle/Howard SG Richardson SF Lydon PF Roberson/Moyer C Coleman/Chukwu That's some serious size, especially when Chukwu is in the game!

I just checked all access for the game tonight and they had a link for audio and nothing else. does that mean they won't be showing the game tonight? Edit: Nevermind. I just confirmed with all access that they will NOT be showing the game tonight. damn.

I really hope you're right about McCullough. But from what I've seen and read, Okafor is the real deal. Absolutely dominant. If he were playing in college this year, he'd be the best center in the game by a lot. And he's still got a year to continue developing before he gets here. I think it's...

I don't get ESPN3 but I did pay for the OAA for the month of November. Problem is I'm going to the UVA-VCU at 7 tonight. Will I be able to watch a replay of the Syracuse-Fordham game after it's over thru OAA?

I'm also down in Virginia. I've had good luck getting a lot of the games on the local sports cable channels, like the local Comcast sports network and MASN. But be advised there will still be a bunch of non conference games that you won't be able to get down here - for those I just get the one...

What did Waters have to say about Patterson? Was he impressive just on defense or is his ball handling or shooting a little more developed than we've been expecting? By all accounts he's going to be a very effective high energy guy on defense at the top of the zone. Would love it if other...

If Gerry didn't know how to swear before that one "not ten bleeping games" press conference, Gerry certainly knew how to after that!

Here's my list of things I'm currently doing that I'm trying to check off my list: - visit all 50 states (getting close, got the 2 tough ones done, just need to do a Dakotas to Oregon road trip. And to visit Maine. How'd I miss that one?) - visit every MLB stadium. got maybe a third done. the...
