Class of 2020 C Eddie Lampkin (TX) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (4/2/24)

[Brooky03]

Pretty good mobility for his size! Compared to Burns, he’s a track star.

 

[LoveShack]

I posted something similar on his recuiting page thread. I'll post it here until it gets combined again. Starting line-up will be called Eddie and the Cruisers

We’ve heard several of these talking points from Red this year.

He also said he's going to wear 44.

 

[djcon57]

His comments about "returning shooters" like Bell would suggest Bell is def back.

 

[Biaxtar]

He also said he's going to wear 44.

So we can't unretire that number for Tucker, but for a newly acquired center, we do? Make it make sense

It’s not retired for basketball.

#44 is only retired for football.

Not for any of the other sports.

We've had LAX players wear 44 for years. Both Men's and Women's.

Welp, I'm a fool then. thanks for the insight.

 

[CardiacCuse]

Any insight regarding whether Patterson has any potential to play next season?

if hes not going to play next season, I hope he portals now

 

[CardiacCuse]

I just look at an offense with JJ, Reynolds and Bell on the outside and Lampkin and Freeman on the inside and think, well, we will be exciting on offense for sure.

is there any news about reynolds?

where are you getting this?

 

[Orangezoo]

One thing to remember too for next year is a ton of big men that have been staples in cbb and the ACC are now likely or possibly gone. Bacot, Filipowski, Edey, Clingan, Hall(?), Ballo(?), Dickinson(?) all either out of eligibility or maybe headed to the league. So landing a guy like Lampkin hits a little different in that respect too once the dust settles.

 

[Sbucketball]

We are finally benefiting from the covid-year rule. Lampkin will be 23 next month.

 

[CardiacCuse]

Whoa, what do you know? Next TWO additions? I’m hoping a PG and a wing.

haha there's like 8 empty spot on the roster...haven;t you heard?

He could pass for 30’s

No And I am not very optimistic about him. But I love his game.

 

[CardiacCuse]

This move pretty much solidified Maliq at the 4..oh wait. I guess he doesn't want to compete with Donnie and stay loyal to his coach, teammates, school, city and fan base like he said 2 weeks ago. We'll be fine

the timing of maliqs announcement pretty much makes me think along same lines as you

if the coaches wanted him gone he wouldve left when taylor and co did, imo

this is about maliq wanting what maliq wants...which is why I dont get all the angst around his departure

Maliq didnt want the Cuse to bring in good players???

ok bye

 

[CardiacCuse]

OMG - A MAN - not a stringbean !!!

thats what "fill in the blank" said

 

[CardiacCuse]

Westry looked good/healthy enough in practice to scare Copeland out of the program.

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

they why didnt he play last year then when the roof was on fire?

 

[RoofBeam]

Is SU still recruiting that C/ who dunks everything (can't remember his name but his highlights were on the forum recently) or is this the only big they will be signing from the portal?

With Mcleod in the fold as backup we won’t see another center. I think I know who you’re referring to and I wouldn’t think so. But they should get big forward depth to backup Freeman at the 4 so maybe they get someone who can be a small ball 5 for some minutes. Someone who can shoot though.

He also said he's going to wear 44.

He was 44 at Colorado as well.

The thing that hasn't really been brought up is that Red never played Maliq at the 4 last year and might not have anticipated playing him there this year. As good as Maliq is, Red wanted a more traditional center (McLeod and Lampkin) and a better shooter at the 4 (Benny and JT).

Whether we agree with any of it the fact is Red might have played McLeod and Maliq together for about 5 minutes the entire time McLeod was healthy.

I think that's Red's plan for 2024 as well. No room at the inn for Maliq.
