Ok Omaha, did this dude hit on your wife or something? You got all pissy pants when I said the fans really seem to despise him, you defend him but then dog him now. I don’t get it man.
He definitely isn’t banking on one guy. Probably has feelers out for multiple guys.
We just have no idea who which could mean international as an option
agreed.
I know that happens a lot on the football side where kids visit, but they aren’t a take. I guess I would have thought if GMac invites a kid to visit, the likelihood he is a take is much higher. I feel like a read more about Zoom calls on the basketball side. Smaller budget than football so I figured that’s probably why in addition it’s still a way to get to know a kid without the expenses of a visit.
We need midrange a ton. I want a guy who can hit 10’ with ease. Opens up downlow and outside. We don’t need to be a three chucking machine like last year. We need to start games looking inside then out after you have made a few. I learned this in 8 grade basketball when my coach told me to wrestle as I fouled out for 3 game in row in like 5 min. He worked for SU and use to wear the old skinny converse sneaks. Mr. Clinton. Great guy who wasn’t wrong lolMidrange garage
Yeah, I doubt GMac would do that. He had a front row seat to some blunders when Boeheim did this. Remember Quade Green? Gerry was intimately involved in that one and I'm sure learned never to be in that position again.
This was the one thing who some of us who had doubts about gmac. Closing on guys. Hopefully he can this time.
Given that Freeman was never their first option, the eggs are definitely not all in one basket…
Did I miss their first center target? I believe he’s the only one they’ve been connected to publicly?
I believe it was Hines, it was probably over when Reibe left and UConn prioritized Hines.
I hope so. Have not heard from the board about any other visits regarding bigs. Certainly GMac went silent mode for the international adds which makes a ton of sense. Maybe there is another but again the clock is ticking and everyone is pursuing bigs.
Thats an interesting perspective. I found Syracuse to be its own little world, removed from the city. I hardly ever left the confines of the campus and Marshall Street. Thats why I loved my time at SU.
All very fair points but then the question is if you dont land him is why was he one of our big targets if this was the case?
They want an Onuaku type of mold in a center. Hold their own defensively atleast, but can beat you one on one down low offensively.
Im all aboard the freeman train, but it seems like if we dont get him the drop off is huge.
Within America, yes. There really isn’t a lot of supply in the first place for that kind of center to begin with that is somewhat along in their development. Especially now in the modern day basketball era. Maybe there is someone else internationally that fits this mold or they’ll have to adjust their strategy on how they want to play a bit.
He played at Iowa and creighton, its just simple intel. Im not jumping you or anyone.
Easy now hahahaha
