Yea thats basically a “hes going to cuse “

Talk about getting more athletic. I loved him as a recruit and would love to bring him home.

 

[Hopkins16]

Adrian Autry was his main recruiter! That means they have a relationship that could help us land him. I know he had an up and down season but I love his potential and athleticism. I would love to see him in the backcourt with Judah. Some folks over the past week voiced that they don't like that backcourt for lack of shooting, but Judah's shooting came on strong at the end of the year and both guys can improve from now till the season starts. Besides, I like a team that can run and get out in transition (which should help Benny).

Can anyone tell me if it would be viable to get JJ and the kid from TTU or do they overlap position-wise / skill set?

Fisher is more of a three.

 

[MikeSU02]

Fisher is more of a three.

I want them both.

Benny at the 4 if he can keep improving.

Jesse and Judah back. Let's roll.

Would love to get JJ, but I cant see him coming unless he was assured a starting role, which means that Joe or Judah would not be returning.

Ideally, Judah stays and Joe goes and we land JJ.

Dont get me wrong about Joe, i really like what he has accomplished, but if we are to be an aggressive team playing M2M and running then JJ is probably a better fit.

I'm with you on JGIII. No disrespect, but I think that's run its course at SU. I'd take JJ over a return of JGIII at this point.

IF JJ comes here to replace Joe it will be imperative to have knockdown shooters at the 3 and 4.

 

[jgeorge322]

I dont know why but seems like he is destined for here… makes too much sense

Thought I'd share what Slater thinks.

Agree we would need more three point shooting, but both Judah and JJ shot around 30% from distance. Judah was really improving as the season wore on. Dont know about JJ in that respect, but if between the two of them they could average around 35% we would be fine.

That would be a solid, but not unreasonable improvement to hope for from two very talented sophs.

Bell is supposed to be a knockdown shooter, hopefully he can show that next year. At the same time, while Benny isn't a knockdown shooter, he has looked better shooting this year and I really think he's going to put it together next year.. hopefully at Cuse!

 

[Cusesky8214]

I forgot he ended up getting that 5th star

I think Benny should model his game after Southerland. He should never dribble. Not saying he's the shooter Southerland was yet, but he really started to come on late in the season.

 

[Cusefan69]

I want them both.

Benny at the 4 if he can keep improving.

Jesse and Judah back. Let's roll.

Can Benny hit the glass hard enough at the 4 game in and game out? I am not sure he he has that mindset. We need to pair Jesse if he returns with a 4 that can rebound.

I think he can in a more clearly defined role amongst better players, yes.

I think he can be more focused under Red.

 

[MikeSU02]

I also think JJ would shoot much better here in this situation with Judah, being healthy and being another year older and not under the mess that was ND this year.

 

[Cuse181]

Already has a Prediction to Syracuse on ON3

Guy has an article that says "a leader has emerged for former..." posted 2 hours ago, didnt the guy enter the portal at like 9 am?

The gif with Joe in this situation is hilarious
