    Peter Carey in the portal

    Couple of years? He will be a graduate we dont have 4-5 years to wait and hope. He seems like a lower level kid,

    Expectations for next season.

    Seems like you need a core of guys to stay and recruit a few experienced players for success. Also think baseline recruiting needs to be kids that want to play for the front of the Jersey not the back. We keep losing key good players starters to the portal QG, KR, JE, JG, QC, BW (debatable)...

    We probably need to get Carey ready for some minutes

    Forgetting the 7’2” Patterson who is supposed to be a better version of Jesse. Assume he adds 20lbs and is ready to roll? I assume the staff knows what they have, have coming in, who is leaving etc….If we have Patterson, Brown, Freeman, McCloud the 5 & 4 should be covered? Bell/ Westry the 3...

    2024 - Portal Tracker

    Easier make them sit one year like it was w/ exception if coach is removed. That would stop most of the silliness

    New Assistant

    I would also assume this was expected after Red was named HC. Great for GMAC. Red needs an experienced guy who can recruit. Needs to happen ASAP with portal as want to keep current players (we want) and get new players

    Dont see us going into season with only 2 upper class RB’s and 2 Freshman Outside of WO’s

    I hate Clemson but...

    Three terrible hero shots at bad times almost cost them game. He has been better this year with shot selection

    I hate Clemson but...

    Thought Girard was not very good today, took 3 really bad threes and did not play a good floor game or defense. When he is on he is great, when off hard to watch those really bad threes. Still wish we had him.

    2024 Spring Practice

    Babers was a good coach snake bitten with injuries and opt outs during covid. Some of his in game Mgmt was debatable and things like not allowing coaches to speak were questionable. We made bowls, produced some good times and great players. Hope Brown expands on it

    So Who Is The First Portaler?

    I’ve heard he is loyal and loves CUSE

    Q-

    I dont see Q, Westry, Bell, JJ or Brown leaving.

    So Who Is The First Portaler?

    Not true teams that stick together and are older are always better. See Creighton for example

    I also trust the coaches have been doing pre work and already have guys lined up

    A lot of talent near, between Upstate cities, NJ, PA, Ohio, Canada all within a 5 hour drive

    I'm surprised there's no thread on Judah's outburst

    Looked pretty elite to me when he took the ball full court like he was shot out of a cannon at the end of the half. He seems to have elite speed, elite ability to control his body, elite handle and elite ability to get to the rim. Good chance he is 1st team all ACC and a draft pick. when he...

    Louisville Postgame Thoughts

    Really undisciplined, on par with Gtown and DePaul bad.

    Q-

    He is fine going left, he just can finish with the left hand, he should spend all summer on that. I have been very impressed with his progress this year

    Class of 2025 RB Isaiah West (PA) Verbal to Kentucky

    Like this guy also he is an athlete can be Marlow Wax type if he does not stick at RB.

    Red Season 1 Now a Bust

    Or better we needed a win against Gonzaga, Tenn, Clemson, FSU, Duke, NC1, Virginia, Wake. Seems more important to beat a better team than lose to a bad one (Gatech, BC).

    Chance Westry Transferring to Syracuse

    Assuming he is practicing and near full speed, can he play X games or <30% of games and not blow his redshirt? Would be good to get another defender in game if we need to press, etc…
  23. O

    Our crying need. A true center!

    Williams will play needs to add 20lbs

    Judah On GTown's Portal Wishlist?

    It’s two things, defense and knocking down 3’s for his NBA future. I think everyone knows he is great at getting to the rim and his handle is great
  25. O

    Possible Portal Point Guards

    Wonder if he is basically ready now but why blow his eligibility for 6-8 games and limited minutes
  26. O

    We won. That is all that matters right now

    Thought Red should not have put second teams in to close out half, we let them get it back to 20 with that banked 3. Needed to keep the gas on and go up 30+.
  27. O

    Possible Portal Point Guards

    Westry will play

    NC State Postgame Thoughts 2

    Do think we play better defense and get to loose balls better than the last few years. Sitting in the zone getting picked apart by Colgate/ Cornell was not fun the past few years.

    Red Season 1 Now a Bust

    Agree loss but remember was never on the court with Brown As MB came off the bench to play the 5 only

    Our crying need. A true center!

    Maybe Westry and beefy 6’10 C/F transfer assuming only Hima and Mintz leave. Should be loaded especially if Frosh and Westry can contribute. Can mix and match with anyone.

    Mintz - Draft watch

    Think he needs to come back, unfinished business

    Autry on Carey, Patterson and Cuffe

    Benny looked pretty good at the end of last year IMO and was expecting a jump. Mental health is unpredictable and assume if coaches knew better, they would have parted ways in off season and gone portal shopping.

    Autry on Carey, Patterson and Cuffe

    Or NC is just ice cold. Lets hope

    Autry on Carey, Patterson and Cuffe

    Hima is cleared but can’t move very well or play a lot of minutes. Bad arthritic knees, potato knees.

    Autry on Carey, Patterson and Cuffe

    Coaching matters but Red is playing the hand he was dealt. Guys recruited for zone that we never have went after. Also Red says every PR session we need to move the ball, take better shots etc… In the end it’s the players who have to make the plays, the coaches can only do so much. If you look...

    Can we stop being idiotic

    I hate starting every game down 7-10 points. We did not bring Copeland in until way too late late game.

    Time to Break The Glass on Patterson

    Redshirting players is a waste in CBB in today’s world. I he can contribute at all even a few minutes play him. If he is unplayable don’t play him But don’t say you are redshirting him.
  38. O

    (no) Cuffe last night

    Dont let Taylor shoot unless it is an open dunk or layup. He is not even close on his wide open looks

    Clemson Postgame Thoughts

    I thought Taylor was horrific in the 1st half, multiple bricks.

    Okay so the Judah play?

    Curious what is the reason NBA scouts are looking at him for then? Certainly not his shooting
  41. O

    Okay so the Judah play?

    Ok then, IMHO for his size, I think he has elite quickness and hops. Mid Range is debatable on being elite but he either draws a foul in lane or makes a bucket and could be the best at doing that in the ACC. My definition of a an elite college player is a kid who will get drafted or play in the...

    Okay so the Judah play?

    You don‘t think he has athletic hops? He has elite hops, speed and body control for his size and ability to move in air and draw fouls. He has elite mid range game and yes he could do more here and improve his passing defense etc. he is a sophomore and a combo guard, not a pass first PG
  43. O

    Louisville Postgame Thoughts

    Because he is 6’7” 215lbs instead of 6’0” 185. He probably stands a better chance to get a rebound, box out and set a pick. I don’t think we have much of a choice at F anymore. I think Cuffe should get minutes at guard but comparing the 2 is mutually exclusive
  44. O

    Okay so the Judah play?

    He was measured in NBA camp was 6’3.75, almost 6’4”

    I know they have shooting guns that measure ARC on shots. Seems like a easy fix

    Wake Forest Postgame Thoughts

    Ok but they went on a huge run and thats when we gave the first half away.

    Wake Forest Postgame Thoughts

    He clunked 3 wide open 3s in a row then added a forced fadeaway and bad drive after we had closed the gap killed our first half. He also go abused on d. Nobody was food tonight but need to figure out a plan for next year
