    Class of 2020 SF Andre Jackson (NY) Offered

    You don’t think he should consider who his “shooting coach” would be?

    Class of 2020 SF Andre Jackson (NY) Offered

    His biggest weakness and future NBA deficiency is shooting. You want to spend your time working with Buddy, JG3, and GMac...or Danny Hurley. For the record, GMac made 400 3’s in 135 games. Hurley made 107 3’s in 121 games. Be smart.

    Class of 2019 CG Joe Girard III (NY) SIGNED WITH SYRACUSE

    I was at the game today as well, and he didn’t work hard defensively until late 3rd quarter when he was switched onto Bonnies Coaches Kid. I am wondering if the lack of D was a strategy to stay out of foul trouble and since he has to work so hard offensively. As soon as Olean cut the lead under...

    If you were Battle’s advisor

    I think potential one and done changes affect him as well. If NBA changes the rule and allows HS kids back in the draft next year, he could slide if he comes back. He’d be competing against this years HS Sr’s (Bazley class) and HS Jr’s in same draft...

    In or Out

    First time I've ever felt we don't deserve to be in, but I'm seeing a lot of teams in Lunardi's latest that are "LESS" deserving. While we don't pass the eye test in my opinion, on paper, we should be given more consideration than what we are given. Louisville---No Top 25 Wins Middle...

    This Notre Dame BS is pissing me off

    This is the one play I'll be thinking of as we play in the NIT. When Frank and Marek watched as Pflueger laid this ball in.

    Class of 2018 SF/PF Darius Bazley (OH)

    This is HUGE for our program. I've spent 2-3 months thinking he was going to bail. Biggest get since Melo in my opinion.

    Class of 2018 PG Jahvon Quinerly (NJ) Transferring from Villanova to Alabama

    Their are kids in the 2017 and 2018 recruiting cycle that we essentially stopped recruiting when we still had interest from the player. Many of us on here were openly skeptical about why...including calling the staff lazy, unable to close, etc. We didn't handle the Hop transition cleanly, and...

    Class of 2018 PG Jalen Carey (NY/NJ) SIGNED WITH SYRACUSE

    Long term this should help our recruiting, provided we are not involved in any way, but in the short term this could hurt us. I don't think any of our recruits will sign in November, they will (and should), hold off til the spring to wait for the dust to settle. Anything can happen between now...

    Class of 2018 SF Cole Swider (RI) Transferring from Villanova to Syracuse

    Saving his "official" as a committed guy...go to a game and get wined and dined. Smart.

    Class of 2018 SF Cole Swider (RI) Transferring from Villanova to Syracuse

    I respect how the kid has handled the process. He was at Elite Camp last summer and we did not offer. He has made his visits, stayed very quiet, and acted like a grown up. He blew up and we offered as he was improving, not early, not late. This is the opposite approach we took with Q Green...

    Class of 2015 Isaiah Briscoe

    Briscoe 2015 class ranked 13. Undrafted. Lydon 2015 class ranked 76. Drafted 24. Cal doesn't develop players, he gets players that are already destined for the league and he babysits them for a year. Then he celebrates with them and piggy backs them on draft night. If you are a clear one...

    Class of 2017 SG/SF Jordan Tucker (NY / GA) Leaving Duke to Butler

    The timing of that offer is not an accident. If they were unsure of Tucker either way, they would've waited on that offer. He either signed with Duke and is waiting to announce publicly or he told Duke he was going somewhere else. Absolutely no way K makes that offer if he's concerned about...

    Class of 2017 SG/SF Jordan Tucker (NY / GA) Leaving Duke to Butler

    Dear Jordan, "Duke is not for everyone..." Translation, unless you are a Top 15 OAD, or an overachiever with dreams of being an attorney, you probably aren't for us. Unless of course we don't find either of the above and at the 11th hour we bless you with the opportunity to be a one year stop...

    Class of 2017 SG Chris Duarte (NY) to Oregon

    Our offense has been horrendous the last 3-4 years because we gave 30 minutes a game to someone who missed 554 3's in his career...(and also couldn't finish at the basket) I agree that we need a leader, like MG was last year, I just don't think it necessarily has to fit in the true PG box.

    Class of 2017 SG Chris Duarte (NY) to Oregon

    Battle is never moving to 3. He's going to be the 2 as long as he stays and when he goes to the NBA. He's also quickly becoming a very good defender in the top of the zone. Our offense does not require a traditional 1. If you have guys that can handle the ball well enough against pressure...

    Class of 2018 SG Robby Carmody (PA) to Notre Dame

    Class of 2018 SG Robby Carmody (PA) to Notre Dame

    I'd be surprised if Red or JB doesn't come tomorrow. I think it's a 1:30 start, but three different guys over three days sends a pretty strong message about how we feel about him. Hop stayed for entire girls game, then watched Park School guys from Buffalo. Have a PG in class of 19, and a big in...

    Class of 2018 SG Robby Carmody (PA) to Notre Dame

    Watched the whole game tonight. Has very little help, and a few of his turnovers were misplays by his teammates. 2 specifically he made the right pass off a screen and teammate didn't roll. Was 0-9 from 3 but more than half were down and out. Had a few ticky tack fouls that forced him to the...

    And may I add that I agree UK is suddenly all in on Quade...but let's remember, just a month ago for Big Blue Madness, Trae Young and his family were brought in a day early so that he and his family could have personal time with Cal and the staff "BEFORE ALL THE OTHER GUYS GET HERE!" PLAN A

    Class of 2017 PG Quade Green (PA) Verbaled to Kentucky

    A few things I can't get past... This kid was on campus 10 times or more? This is the not first high level PG recruit we ever chased, and yet we told Coleman, Isaiah Washington, Jose Alvarado, and possibly others, no thanks? We even asked Coleman and Washington NOT to visit? We changed...

    First post ever...looks like most of you are as crazy as I am about the Cuse! Can't believe it took me all these years to find you psycho's. UK is really good at what they do...provide a pro atmosphere for 8-9 months that the kids are on campus, destroy the SEC on athleticism alone and hope...
