And that’s how easy it is to start baseless rumors about people. A cautionary tale, kids - you’re welcome for the lesson lol.

Trying to say Bacot’s on the “DL”? Not that there’s anything wrong with that, of course…

I laughed entirely too hard at this (you know everything he’s ever said?!?!) & thought of Meatloaf getting hit with a meatloaf in concert. I live a sad life I guess.

Went back to watch some videos & stumbled upon this: Bunch shooting corner 3's, making close to 40 shots (27 were visible) while only missing 4. Super cool.

Slightly off topic, but...does the school have any input on which companies/products a kid can partner with? For instance: Could Buddy be on a Bud Light can? Could Sidibe endorse Viagra? Could Marek have become the new Marlboro Man? Could Jimmy Boeheim be the spokesman for OnlyFans? Joey...

He's boys with Justin Timberlake? Jealous.

Good thing his family didn't let him commit to the school he wanted, with no cash considerations (gasp!), or he may have missed the payday & honor of playing at LSU lol

(Post a pic of me & my FWB...) #NotCommitted

Wouldn't you want to practice on the same court, same baskets, same environment as which you play? I'd think so. But genuinely not sure how many schools practice where they play...many?

Too much to say that Symir's already been successful - just with his hardcore recruiting of...well, everyone? Super cool to see Symir rep SU BB & the 315 in general. You can tell he's genuine. (Cole too)

Not sure where this narrative that SU made Frank reclassify came from, but don’t think it’s true. Frank reclassified first, then we got involved.

He did shoot a more respectable 35% from 3 the year before that tho...

You know, I'd roll with a lineup of: G: Joey G (6-1; JR) - Possibly the weakest position (in terms of being a legit PG), but kid does have potential to be a valuable shot-maker for us next few years IMO. Just had tough all around 20-21. Potential for unexpected improvement here. G: Buddy...

Kentucky already has talented options at PG: Devin Askew - 5 Star (class of 2020), played almost 30mpg this year, tho stats were eh. Nolan Hickman - 4/5 Star (2021) recruit coming in next year. Plus, they have commitment from Skyy Clark, 5 star PG prospect in class of 2022 that may reclass...

I instantly know who poster is when I read this. Brian, you should have the phrase trademarked lol

I realize this team isn’t “great” But the Final Four was legitimately in reach. I believe that. so disappointed - my girl is hiding the razor blades as we speak lol

Ok, we less than 6 hours away from a decision here. How about some predictions? Predict school, % of confidence in your choice, and maybe some quick rationale. I’ll go with Cuse - about 80% confident. I really think all the latest predictions from the recruiting “experts” tip it off for me...

Gotta admit: I’m so jealous of what Duke is doing right now. Coach K is straight up making moves right now, acting like a Boss. Swooped in last minute & snatched up a solid player in Tape, right out from under us. Did the same with Curry & almost snatched him up too. And now they are...

Couldn’t he apply to play immediately, since SU would be much closer to home?

Coach K - “Other teams can’t beat us if we have all the players...think about it.” (Duke assistant coaches smile & nod nervously)

This guy’s intriguing for sure. In 8 games vs best comp he still averaged 8.6 ppg, 6 rpg & 2.3 blocks. Including these games: vs Prov - 12 / 9 / 3 vs USC - 11 / 6 / 4 vs Wake - 10 / 7 / 4 vs UCLA - 10 / 7 / 3 BUT man, just same body type as rest of our bigs. Was really hoping for that...

Article today on Jordan Bruner (F, Yale): https://www.google.com/amp/s/247sports.com/college/basketball/recruiting/Article/Jordan-Bruner-Yale-Duke-Kansas-Baylor-Maryland-Xavier-Florida-State-145187546/Amp/ “The news broke Wednesday evening, and since Bruner has already heard from Duke, Kansas...

This guy is our only shot at having a successful season next year, IMO. Gotta pull it out somehow.

Duke is currently #4th best odds to win it all (tied with Dayton at 10/1) and yes, I am on drugs - but that has nothing to do with anything lol

“I expect 2-3 guys to leave. Elijah is probably leaning toward it. Somebody who isn’t playing a lot might transfer. The new transfer rule may be in effect by then. We are still looking at high school players and grad transfers. We have to protect the program. There will be lots of movement and...

Yep, we’re way better off when kids make rash decisions lol

https://www.si.com/.amp/nba/2020/03/03/nba-draft-big-board-anthony-edwards-lamelo-ball-james-wiseman Hughes #74 here? I just don’t get it I guess.

The rapper

Just had to know team that got Marcus would not regret it. Has look of a good, solid 4-year type player who over-performs his recruiting rankings. Type of kid that’s a cornerstone at a “lower” school - that when they beat us we ask “how do these teams always have such solid players that...

HA! My post was all a rouse to get some inside info...and you fell right into my trap lol (And I stand corrected...NVM what I said 10 mins ago, I was super wrong haha)

To be fair, do we even have a quote from this kid saying he liked SU, for what reasons, etc? Def a lot to like here - Dior recruiting for us, his visit, and the crystal ball predictions but... IDK, It’d still be pretty shocking (to me at least) for another 5 star 2022 player to just commit to...

Not much discussion in this thread. Know we are getting our hopes up that Dior will bring us Top 25 type players Chance Westry and/or Zion Cruz BUT... Kid right here is a 4 star, top 50 ranked kid (247 composite - #44, Rivals - #48) from nearby Youngstown NY (less than 3 hour drive) who grew...

Love Hughes, wish him the best. Absolutely hate that we wasted his second/last year here putting below-average talent around him.

I don’t understand - I’d imagine it’s rare to see 4 crystal ball picks already for a 2022 kid, right? How are they so sure it’s SU? Up until Saturday I didn’t hear SU mentioned with Chance at all, except for original offer... I mean, I’m thrilled - this guy is already a 6-4 SG - but puzzled...

I’d be so much happier if I believed the team was working towards something. But I can’t get there. Don’t believe they are/will be good enough to make a Tournament Run (if even got in!) this season. And there’s no “building towards next year’s awesome team” either, since: 1.) I believe our...

To me, that sounds good...but more "professional" or "clinical" - almost robotic. There's no personality there, no mentions of them having fun on a specific night, no antidotes about coach/players, etc. If the number 1 thing Isaiah Jackson is looking for is "NBA!" Get me there, get me there...

Ok gentlemen (and ladies), 24 hours away & nobody has a clue except the Jackson family. Very strange situation but I like it. I just can’t get over the timeline of IJ’s recruitment tho... July/August - Article where IJ basically calls out SU (out of the blue really) & says he wants to setup a...

Man, that team was so fun to watch. Really had a swagger - like nobody could play with them. And making plays or passes on the run, sweet finishes. Our guys seem so robotic out there now. Too afraid to make a mistake, don’t have that “We’re freaking Syracuse” swagger. Need it back...

IMO many around here are discounting Syracuse's chances. Just because UK & Alabama are the "hot/talked about" schools from recruiting experts - guys that may not be as “plugged in” to Cuse like they are, say, Kentucky. I always go back to what the player/family says. But if you think his...

Fraternity brother of mine (Zeta Psi) & all around good dude. Was 2 years above me & part of Basketball team, yet ready to hangout whenever he had time. Always appreciated it. (I was an “athlete” too - wrestling team - so had stuff in common.) Def rooting for Rob to succeed

Thanks for the info - negative news never gets the “likes” positive posts do haha but equally important to know. Now, that Isaiah Jackson news jammed in there...can you expand on this more please? (Maybe in his thread?) Know it’s not a 1 or other deal but...we get Isaiah (but not Andre), I’m...

He doesn’t celebrate Christmas? Ok, he can leave

Frank missed only 5 games this season. And the only “counting” statistic that I provided that would be impacted was total assists. The other 5 categories were ratios or per game - thus, not (too) adversely impacted by FH’s missing 5 games.

Best game is first one, IMO. Really interested to see if FSU’s talent (bunch of talented guys with great measurables) can take down Gonzaga’s team of good/great basketball players. Also: Going forward, i’d like to see SU become a mix of FSU & Virginia. Mix of raw talent/athletes (FSU) & also...

Since Baylor game I've been trying to figure out where this season went wrong for SU. I had high expectations, coming off of a Sweet 16 finish & getting everyone back (plus Hughes & decent recruits). Popular narrative around here lately has been how SU has not recruited PG & Centers well...

IDK, he seems to be doing well enough at Michigan. Don’t see it

Nevada loses this game and it’s “C’est la via” to my brackets this year!
