Sickening.

What might have been...

“Symir is the same” they say.

LOL.

“Symir is the same” they say.

LOL.

They don't want to hear that

 

[NineOneSeven]

Very unfortunate. Was excited to watch him this year. Love his ability.

 

[SUFan44]

They don't want to hear that

Still think we will be good/very good.

But PG is undoubtedly the weak spot. By far.

 

[FloridaFan]

Some spicy comments in it. I like it haha

 

[Cusefan69]

It is what it is, had forgotten about him already….oh well…back to the dogers game. Go blue!

“Symir is the same” they say.

LOL.

I’d love to see a receipt on someone saying that

 

[DoctorBombay]

I just…(sigh)

Add Kadary to this years team and we are top 20 maybe better. Joe could have backed both the 1 and 2 spots and provided great energy as the 6th man.
JB went beyond even his usual stubbornness in trying to prove the fans and press wrong about Kadary and it cost SU a great player. All he needed to do was start the kid as he earned it.
He is going to do very well at SH and end up having a solid pro career.
JB really screwed up on this one.

 

[Finwad32]

Kadary is absolutely real. But he’s also really gone.

I don’t think about what if’s anymore.

 

[Timonen]

Is there anything we didn’t know in there? They like their new player and he’s happy to be there. Ok. We don’t need to get triggered by fluff articles like this.

Kadary on this team and we’re top 5-10.

Kadary on this team and we’re top 5-10.

Not sure I would go that high, but you may be right. Easily top 15-20 and certainly no worries about being on the bubble that I have right now.

It's unfortunate. He was our best PG last year and would be this year.

 

[Tony DeFranco]

Kadary is playing one more year and then a first round pick - us, well, we got Joe Girard - seems fair

I wish him the best, at the same time I don't care anymore. He s not Orange.

He gone. Move on!!!

 

[DoctorBombay]

A bit too much hyperbole about this situation, but i get it. It still stings.
In any case, unlike some others i actually have faith JG3 will be very good for us these next couple of years. I think his shot will be more consistent, he’ll be in better shape post-Covid, and he WILL, mark it down…win some big games for us.
But alas, he will never be Kadary Richmond good. And I’m still baffled, and miffed, about how/why that whole thing went down. Maybe JB assumed he could still act like a stubborn butthole, but in the transfer portal era that old school “my way or the highway” schtick doesn’t wash. Kids are…well, different now, and they have more options. It is what it is.

 

[Goin' Deep]

Well, JB has HIS team this year.
Considerable talent hit the road.
CUSE needs to finish in the top 3 in the ACC.
Go 23-8 or better in the reg. season.
Play in the ACC championship game and be a 4 seed or better
for the Big Dance in March.
That describes JB delivering for 2021-22.

Good for Kadary. Complete freedom only gets your team so far though. Big thing is Kadary wants to do what Kadary wants. Again it stings because he really is that good but also a player who wants to dictate every possession he can and showcase his talents for the league.

I doubt KR was going anywhere that wasn't going to hand him the keys and walk back in the house and say just don't crash it.

 

[Bayside44]

Meh...guy was pushing 30 minutes by season's end. For a board that screams about guys getting too many minutes his minutes seemed fine.

This is exactly where I am. It’s a stretch and not exactly in line with history to assume things would be much better with a single player getting that much freedom. Or maybe he got all the freedom he wanted last year. Maybe we’re a little better but still nets out the same in the end with the sweet 16 tops, and he joins the list of people who leave for the league after a good first year…and everybody suddenly rationalizes why they’re not good enough and should stay.
