    Darius Bazley - Players Tribune

    I have a couple SU grads that also got their masters from other big name universities. One is north of $7K a month (projected as $84K /year) and one below. They are also >25 years old. So, if he does his sentence in the G league and gets drafted, he will be doing just fine for an 18 - 19 year...

    Dean Francis new podcast out there...

    Dude, I didn't lecture you. I think if you re-read my entire response, you'll see we are in agreement. I was responding to a previous post. Again. I said, once it's out there......the limits of where info gets spread are gone.

    Dean Francis new podcast out there...

    Again, I said I didn't know if he was. But the word discussing as opposed to sharing may be appropriate. And, unless YOU have direct discussions with someone, someone is sharing info that may or may not be intended for public consumption. ......My point is less about his sources and more...

    Dean Francis new podcast out there...

    I loved Dean's stuff. But I have to admit, I paid for a bunch of different recruiting services over the years. Often times Dean seemed to be "breaking news" to this board that I had seen earlier elsewhere. Was he sharing content??? He may have had totally different sources...maybe not. Did...

    Duke’s defense

    How about their real 1st heavy FULL court press coming out of OUR time out??? = Half court violation/turnover. Not bashing Coach B. but complimenting Coach K. I saw that as a double whammy. Stole our timeout and caused the turnover.

    Front the inbounds man!

    And hindsight is 20/20.....But foresight can be 20/15. Wow, I just made that up. Eye doctor once told me that a few particular nationalities can and do have better than 20/20 vision. I know stay on topic...lol

    I'm Hating Duke more and more

    That's why I put #2 rival (behind Carolina). This is how it starts (joining ACC). Then festers...a knock out in the tourney (when they are a heavy favorite now to win it all). We would certainly be hated for a long time. Rivalry picks up steam!!! Wishful thinking...but hey...

    2 MSU flaws

    1) They did not have a or use a penetrating guard to "work" the zone. 2) Their strategy of throw it up there and kill SU on the boards worked to a certain extent. However, it played into our need to shorten the game. Many rebounds of theirs turned into a reset and use of the shot clock. Use...

    This is our chance to firmly place SU as Duke's #2 rival.

    Front the inbounds man!

    How about not letting the other team roll the ball to half court (game clock doesn't start)? I thought I was going to put a bottle through the bar on that very play to end the half against TCU. They scored with .8 seconds left on the clock.

    Recruiting for the Zone and Early Departures

    2009 -10 is 7-8 years ago.. Just sayin'... I'm hoping that your reference wasn't a tourney with his kids in it or desperation at the end of the year (NYS States) or backyard tourney. we can somewhat agree on the succession. However, I do believe JB altered his plans; which caused Hop's...

    Recruiting for the Zone and Early Departures

    Someone was MIA long before the sanctions were implemented. And your second point, who altered the succession plan?? I let you answer that . Please expand on how that impacted the program. LASTLY, AAU and high school game visits are two distinct recruiting venues. The latter being a...

    Recruiting for the Zone and Early Departures

    How many times have you read OR SEEN cALIPARI AT A RECRUIT'S GAME??? A+ for effort in my book. Again, this has been sliding for some time. Before probation, Francis indicated the top guy has been MIA. It has been showing on the rosters for a few years now. Did NCAA thingy scare off a few...

    Recruiting for the Zone and Early Departures

    We can play the "what ifs" and we recruited to the best of our knowledge and ability (without paying as you suggest) assumptions. But the proof ultimately comes down to what's on the floor. And...as I'm sure you know, our beloved recruiting guru Francis, has said the top guy hadn't been to a...

    Recruiting for the Zone and Early Departures

    I think it's how "hard" we recruit those players. Not going after the top guys for a few years takes us out of the conversation for the following year's next top players. We need to be out there and aggressive on the recruiting trail THat includes the top guy...if we want to land the top...

    The Black Hole Years

    I'll stand corrected on Capel then. Still point is we have not been anywhere close to recruiting at Duke's level for a loooooooong time. AND...we couldn't afford to sleep on a recruiting season.....Our team shows that now.

    The Black Hole Years

    That was Duke. Duke can recruit with it's brand name. Successs tends to do that for you. Where were their (Duke's) assistant coaches??? Mike wasn't home. Gerry was left to close the Quade deal. How'd that work out. TON OF OTHER regional misses. Plus the one that kills me... Two of...

    Cheating is cheating

    I don't agree with paying the players. In addition to free tuition and room/board, I believe they do receive a stipend. My kids held jobs during college - no stipends for kids that graduated with the highest honors. How about the kids working on professor's research projects or non-revenue...

    Who flagged Anthony Davis???

    Remember back when we flirted with the Anthony Davis recruitment? We supposedly liked him before he grew a bunch his senior year of hs. Another coach reported that his "camp" was asking for big dollars. I don't want to be sued for slander, so I won't throw out the number. Who was the other...

    Class of 2018 SG Tyler Bertram (Cooperstown / VT)

    I think it's the 2g position backlog that will likely keep him away. JG3 is hopefully more of pg. I'll defer to your "live" assessments though on skill/potential.

    We ALL know that. We ALL know Mr. Stewart from Rochester has a similar pre-existing relationship. Been to Indiana lately??? Have your head coach NEGLECT to keep on the recruiting heat and watch things slip away...... It happens.. DON'T let it. My point, lazy recruiting can come back...
