This kid is good program depth.
He is a 4 year player and he can shoot.
He doesn’t need major minutes till his Junior year and this is a good job by JB.
With Buddy we don’t need to give him a scholarship and this kid can take the extra one.
If Battle goes we will have another one.

Gotta like the pic of gmac in his tweet. Would love to see a pic with both standing beside each other.

 

[Funk Doc]

Speak for a lot on here...finally!!!

We got quotes.



“Coach [Jim] Boeheim called me directly,” Girard said. “I’ve visited multiple times before and will probably visit again. I feel really great about the offer and to have such a storied program that is in state offer me feels amazing.”

 

[44doubledees]

Ok why hasnt he committed already...

JG3 is class of 2019. Won't be impacted by Battle staying or going.

JB read all the comments here about us complaining and extending the offer immediately!

Would love to have this kid...cant imagine him not having a great college career and he's home grown and should be lighting it up in the dome for us and not someone else playing against us. Just hope we are a major player when it comes down to the end because this kids recruitment is just starting to heat up!

Outstanding.

Now, if the kid opts to go elsewhere, that's his prerogative. But I feel better knowing that we aren't overlooking a quality P5 scorer in our backyard.

And Bobby Browns.

His release even looks like gmacs.

[Deano]

Any chance we can suit him up for tomorrow's game?

 

[Toga]

25 feet? Not a problem.

 

[albanycuse]

Now we just need him to commit , get stronger and tighten up that handle.

 

[Toga]

He's falling back on defense when releasing 25 footers.

Congrats to Joe Girard. He and his family have put in a ton of work. Nice to see a local kid get offered. I think he can be really productive and carve out a nice role at SU. Section II has been putting out a lot of high end players over the last 20 years.

Reminds me of former ND guard Chris Quinn with a little better ability to make his own shot.

That’s some high praise, he played in the NBA.
