    OT: Simpsons mock Upstate NY

    You think I'm the only person that feels this way? Upstate NY is crumbling.. The infrastructure is decaying, take a drive through Rochester and look at the bridges, we had a long thread in the local Nextdoor.com about the litter along our highways.. Seriously, if all my kids didn't own homes...

    OT: Simpsons mock Upstate NY

    Lol. that hit below the belt, I used to work at Kodak in Bldg 53, one of the last to be demoed. I have also posted several images of decaying bridges here in Rochester on Gov Cuomo's Twitter feed. I stopped doing it because it didn't seem to do any good. Upstate NY could be the worst place to...

    Players you respect on teams you hate

    That Carsen Edwards kid at Purdue.. Why I hate Purdue, it's that "Boiler Up" thing that bothers me for some reason. I know I'm childish.. LoL...

    Mullin out at St. John’s / Mike Anderson hired

    I honestly met a guy whose name was Richard Head.. I didn't believe it at first so asked to see his drivers license, sure enough he was telling the truth. He lives in Hornell..

    not many teams with two players with Battle and Brissett's 3p% and assists

    No question our recruiting has taken a nose dive.. Team badly in need of a shakeup.

    Uva

    They never quit or died after Edwards repeatedly stabbed them, wow what a game...

    Carson Edwards

    The kid is 100% heart, but the hug and smile for Diakita after they lost told the story.

    North Carolina

    Well, that's what he got CAUGHT with.. He has recruited kids that other schools wouldn't even look at. No I can't prove anything but his reputation is less than stellar.

    Tyus Battle’s farewell letter to Syracuse fans: I am ready because of you

    Too bad we couldn't recruit five Tyus Battles.. Great young man and a credit to SU.

    Nike Scandal?

    If you had information/proof that your next door neighbor robbed a bank would you notify the authorities or would you attempt to make a deal with your neighbor to split the money in return for remaining silent?

    Down goes ncst to lipscomb

    Lipscomb should have made the tournament, I understand that hindsight is 20/20 but it's messed up that North Carolina Central made the tournament. They played in the MEAC, a conference that only had three teams with winning records, the best overall team had 14 losses. Seven MEAC teams had 19...

    Of the 16 teams left..

    The only teams I can pull for are ACC teams as it would help SU financially. So in my preferred order: 1) UVA Bennett needs to win it all after last year.. 2) FSU 3) VT 4) UNC 5) Duke - Massively Overrated IMHO..

    Buddy

    Well, if you have to make a first mistake, that's the kind I want.. :)

    defend the 3

    Good ball movement will result in open three pointers eventually. UVA understood that and executed to perfection, but regardless they were even knocking down contested threes so no one was going to stop them. We haven't seen a team that good at ball movement, wore us down.

    If I'm not mistaken...

    Didn't James Arthur Boeheim just cement his 42nd straight winning season? Or am I wrong...

    Sorry to hear about your fall... My wife did the same last year, didn't need hip replacement, it healed itself but she was laid up for a couple months..

    Dolezaj's future

    I don't think Marek was brought in with the expectation he would ever be a 20 point scorer. They wanted 10 points 6 boards and a couple three assists while playing half the game subbing for the stronger forwards. JB saw him as a 4 year guy and still does.. Nothing wrong with that, those type...

    She could if anyone could pronounce her name.

    JB's First Losing Season EVER?

    I see the same when I don my Orange color glasses, but I misplaced them during the GT game and haven't seen them since.

    Buddy

    This has always been JB's trademark.. Play upperclassmen exclusively unless he had a super frosh like GMac and Melo.. No middling Frosh EVER saw conf. action.. In the past he allowed the older guys to play through the funks and Frosh that weren't ready sat and sat and sat.. What changed in his...

    The Bad News

    I think we've been spiraling down since the media started to ask JB when he was going to step down. Not sure why but recruiting slowed down, maybe the better players were worried he would leave or whatever but that seems around the time our troubles started 5-8 years ago..

    JB's First Losing Season EVER?

    Nope, realistic is the word...

    JB's First Losing Season EVER?

    Which 8 teams on our schedule will we beat to get to 19-12?
  30. rstone7727

    Buddy

    True, but he's also Coaches son and that usually causes issues unless they are clearly better. I noticed that one breakaway for GT showed Buddy under our basket, even Dakich mentioned it.. That is a sure hook for anyone else.

    JB's First Losing Season EVER?

    Hope not but we'll be heavy dogs in all except BC & Pitt..
  32. rstone7727

    JB's First Losing Season EVER?

    Not looking to be negative, just realistic, but we have some tough games left. IF we split with BC, Clemson and Pitt. we'll be staring at JB's first ever losing season 15-16. Someone tell me I'm wrong... 1) @ Duke 2) Pitt 3) Miami 4) @ Virginia Tech 5) @ BC 6) @ Pitt 7) Florida State 8) BC 9)...

    Blame: players versus coaches

    Shooting is somewhat attached to mental attitude IMO.. Shots fall more when you are mentally up, they tend to clang when you are not... Not saying that's the only factor but it's one of them..
  34. rstone7727

    Buddy

    Honestly, I hope you're right but I think it was a mistake to bring in Buddy.

    A stat indicating we're not special anymore

    Yeah, this year hasn't exactly turned out as planned has it...
  36. rstone7727

    Buddy

    My theory on that is the players see Buddy playing and lost their desire due to it. It goes deeper than this one game, it's during practice too, players are likely asking questions to each other.
  37. rstone7727

    Buddy

    Carey, like the rest of the team has had the wind taken out of his sail due to Buddy getting undeserved minutes. Buddy could help eventually but he's supposed to be a three point specialist and he's hitting at 24%. Anyone else would be riding the pine.
  38. rstone7727

    Buddy

    I'm one of JB's biggest supporters but playing his son so many minutes in an ACC game has to be playing mental games with ALL of the other players. I believe that is the issue here. Buddy should not be playing at all in ACC games, he looked lost, he looked small and he looked slow. Big deal he...

    Would we have lost this game last year?

    Nope, we could have trotted out our best three players, and played a 2-1 zone and still won.

    BJ update

    We all knew one day BJ would play under the big lights.

    Mike Hopkins is a genius

    Anyone wonder if we will soon schedule them at the dome? Good Lord, there could be 35,000 there. Home & Home would be great.

    Ok, now I'm ready for bug reports, suggestions, etc

    Big improvement for me.. Also phone view seems better. As far as the orange colors.. The University really should come up with an official "Orange" that can be used everywhere, uniforms, websites, mugs, etc.. Personally, I like the darker-brighter orange colors like #FF6804..

    License Plate

    What a coincidence, I stopped at BJ's for gas this afternoon and a guy in the next lane had "LETSGOSU" plates. I yelled over "Nice plates", and he said "Yeah, I was shocked they were available.."

    License Plate

    I had "SU Rules" here in NY for about 6-7 years. Got a lot of bewildering looks during football season.

    Class of 2018 SF/PF Robert Braswell (SC) SIGNED WITH SYRACUSE

    Love this pickup, kind of a cross between Louis Orr and Hakim Warrick at the same stage.. Thin but talented..

    Top ten recruits

    I would not care if they decided to only admit 5'8" math majors into College as long as it was across the board and stayed competitive. Back to the days when it was "special" to see a player dunk... I enjoy seeing High School kids play.

    Coach K greatest of all time???

    Not even close, JB has him by a mile. Way, way less talent, almost as good results.
