    What are some of the positives around the program?

    A majority of the team got COVID and given minutes distribution doesn’t seem to be impacting minutes or team stamina.

    Losing record, 15 games in

    I’m not refuting any of that. I agree. I’m just saying you say we could have three more losses. Saying that we could also have 4 more wins just as easy.

    Losing record, 15 games in

    The OP said we could have three more losses. But we don’t.

    Losing record, 15 games in

    Not really a fair argument…..We could easily have 4 more wins. Wake, Miami, Virginia and VCU. Team stinks but if we just got an inbound pass we win. Same argument about teams not pressuring us.

    Postgame Thoughts… Wake Forest

    JB is so stubborn I feel like this is almost necessary for meaningful change. It is awful in the interim.

    This one is on JB

    Who can give him an entry pass? This is a 3pt shooting team….

    Buddy

    I was thinking about that during the game. Imagine if we had Buddy, Nichols, roberts. Def would be better then this team. Not saying good but better then this.

    Buddy

    Not really seeing it again …my guess is Bennett told them to stick on Boeheim and live with swider/JG hitting a shot.

    The Grand Bargain

    Would have been nice if they had asked….. Nobody is mad that his two kids are on the team. If they were 9-1 it would be a good story. The issue is They had players on campus that got “pushed” out. Jimmy could have an acceptable role on the team if say woody or braswell had stayed. Jimmy being...

    JB Presser

    It has never been warranted in the past but this year seems different. The main issues are not with poor play but with the composition of this team and the roles they are playing. It would be nice if he just pointed the finger back at himself then. When he gets into the tourney he has no...

    When Should JB retire?

    If they are going to move on then the program needs to just do it. The reception for a Boeheim retirement tour wouldn’t be that great anyway. Going into wake or NC state….Besides like one or two schools I don’t think ACC fan base would care. It would be more for the cuse fans. If they were...

    JB Presser

    This garbage is worse then the game….he puts the team together and deals with the playing time. Sometimes the team just sucks and it is what it is but to blame certain individuals is shameful.

    JB Presser

    What was the Knock on Jesse? Couldn’t get to the corner fast enough?

    Postgame Thoughts… Georgetown

    something tells me this isn’t JB last season. Willingly at least.

    ok now we’re screwed

    There is so much movement idk if you can even develop anymore. I feel like a few years ago during Girard freshman year we were talking about how good the team would be in a few years. Two years later the only guys left are Girard and Buddy.

    Postgame Thoughts… Georgetown

    What is he going to consult about? Consistency in getting caught breaking rules?

    Postgame Thoughts… Georgetown

    Jimmy isn’t the problem but normally this position has a difference maker. He just doesn’t provide it. He would be a good backup. Idk if the thought was Benny was going to come in and kill it. Very disheartening all around.
  18. Ajflood12

    Girard

    it is weird. We seem to be scoring a lot but to say the offense flows well to me is tough. We have 4 shooters who don’t really create their own shots. Hopefully two of the 4 get hot at all times. If not we score 24 points in the first half. I think with a better PG the offense flows better. But...
  19. Ajflood12

    Girard

    The players are in scholarship to do good things…. Nobody hates jo. The team needs a PG to set up shooters is all and it isn’t joe strength and the offense is stagnant which is frustrating.
  20. Ajflood12

    Change the starting lineup???

    Understand that is your opinion only but That may agitate more of the fan base then keeping joe in the starting lineup. Given the KR decision. Boeheim would never admit a mistake like that. I think he would prefer to lose with joe then try symir.

    Harvard over Colgate

    Yikes. Probably St. John’s as well. Sad times.
  22. Ajflood12

    Postgame Thoughts… Auburn

    The scarier thing is we may lose to many teams worse then us. 0-2 already. Drexel was up at the half too.

    Harvard over Colgate

    What happened to NYS sports team? Is Syracuse even a top 5 program in NYS right now?
  24. Ajflood12

    Postgame Thoughts… ASU

    The game was the same as the last two games. Only difference is ASU didn’t hit enough shots in the middle. They got hot too late. They just get sucked in and have no ability to recover. Jesse is a bright spot it seems.

    Synergy

    You forgot adjustments or ability to adapt to players strengths.

    Postgame Thoughts… VCU

    I think my point overall still stands.
  27. Ajflood12

    Postgame Thoughts… VCU

    They lost KR, marek, Q, woody, braswell and AG. They added jimmy b and swider. They have made zero adjustments from what they have historically done on offense or defense. Not sure how ppl didn’t see this coming. Hopefully some of it gets worked out over time but you cannot lose that much...

    Postgame Thoughts… VCU

    Isn’t this what happens to all the greats? Paterno, Bowden to name a few. This ship has been sinking for years. This team truly is Boeheim playing his way though. The system doesn’t fit the players at all.
  29. Ajflood12

    Postgame Thoughts… VCU

    The pressers will be exciting at least. How many ppl can you throw under a bus until you get to the end? Gutierrez is the most excited person to be off the cuse beat.

    Ok who are we?

    We play a zone with no length or athleticism. Nobody can or tries to close out on shooters. What did ppl expect?

    Next year’s starting line up ?

    Really zero confidence? At worst Sid will be a ceremonial starter and quick pull. More likely 30 seconds into each game he will pick up his 2nd foul and somebody else will come in.

    Rothstein ranks us 17 for Next Year

    Is this before or after jimmy committed?

    AG's Attitude

    I feel like it is apples to oranges for shot selection. Once AG got the ball one of two things was happening. A drive and most likely a turnover or a step back 3. Similar for JG ...he doesn’t mind taking a half court heat check. Buddy usually takes quality shots. The season turned when he...

    2021 Battle 4 Atlantis

    I went down last time. I stayed outside Atlantis and we drove in. Being outside was fine and easy to get around. We stayed at like a Hilton. The issue is you gotta valet park. They won’t give you wifi, you cannot go anywhere but the casino. They won’t even allow you outside unless you buy the...

    Marek Officially Leaving

    One of the best all around players. How many guys lose a tooth and take a hit from a truck (Zion) and keep going. i hope Syracuse athletics finds a way to get him into senior day next year. Either virtual or live. He deserves to have a final cheer and not go out to an empty stadium maybe he...

    Lost and Found

    Syracuse media needs to put a JG3 highlight reel out ASAP. His best heat checks. Get us hyped about PG1.

    Kadary transferring to Seton Hall

    Going to seton hall feels like the equivalent of being stuck behind JG3. Weird move.

    A little help please, I have a bad knee

    I have gotten PRP a few times for various running injuries. Worked both times. I think it is more tendon based. Probably why she got it for tennis elbow. His seems like bone on bone.

    Not a bash but could this be the best time for a coaching change

    Not sure if he is tall enough to be the best.

    Symir Torrence Transferring from Marquette to Syracuse

    It is like you have seen this show before or something. I’m not looking forward to hearing this trash come up in jan/feb. Probably add in a complaint like...we lost a ton of guys this off-season. Joe and buddy were real committed to the program unlike others.

    Wes Johnson, Gbinije, AW, Gillon, Hughes

    You forgot buss Patterson and geno Thorpe. I would like to be optimistic given our circumstances but it would have been easier to keep our own. Guess that is out the window now.

    Kadary Richmond in the transfer portal

    Not that I doubted you but good call. Appreciate the info even though some wanted to call you out or not listen.

    Kadary Richmond in the transfer portal

    Just go to the reload threads. Not an issue. :-/

    We shouldn’t care who leaves as long as the staff reloads

    I hope you are right. If we lose guys I would love for us to retool better. Just the recent results of somewhat underwhelming recruiting makes me think it isnt definitely happening. I think that person would have to be pretty exceptional to supplant joe though. JB stubbornness is strong.
  46. Ajflood12

    We shouldn’t care who leaves as long as the staff reloads

    Yea. But wouldn’t that mean there are more openings at UNC, duke and Kansas now. K has no problem grabbing guys to keep them away from us like tape and tucker. If JB wouldn’t give kadary the keys over joe this past year...how good would the new guy have to be to take away the starting spot from...

    We shouldn’t care who leaves as long as the staff reloads

    I mean Bernie fine was still on the staff with Hopkins and rob murphy. In basketball terms and like recruiting I feel like it was a long time ago. We were picking up Mickey d all Americans every year. To me it is different.

    We shouldn’t care who leaves as long as the staff reloads

    Gbinije and Hughes are arguably the two best players we’ve had here in the last 6-7 years. We are having two different arguments. They weren’t good day 1. They turned out to be good after a few years. So if we lose a bunch of guys in the program and are able to turn around guys that take two...
