Cole is the last big decision we are waiting for

[Cusefan0307]

How can Cole stay at this point? He's scholarship #13, isn't he? Even JB isn't negligent enough to roll into the upcoming season with only Edwards and Carey at center, is he? If, as everyone is saying, we aren't pushing one of JBA or Chaz out, what gives?

We will have room for Cole.

 

[Cuse'91]

We will have room for Cole.

Yes, of course. He has a scholarship now. But, if he stays, where is the scholly for a backup center to replace Frank?

What kind of “milkshake” are you drinking?

My milkshake.
In a blender;
Ice
milk
malt
!iquid coffee concentrate
vanilla syrup
your choice of liquer

[dasher]

We will have room

And not for nothing, having a forward that is a double digit scorer, a 6+ rebounder, is more important than the back up center. If we had to, we could muster it together. It won't come to that but still.

 

[AZOrange]

Nice to confirm Benny. Kid has the size and hops, just needs to adjust to the speed of the college game.

Heh there was no confirmation needed after yesterday. No Benny no mintz

 

[dollarbill44]

JBA gets some PT, he could even get better and get more. There has to be some school, D2,D3 where Chaz could play, why would he stay?

Maybe he knows hoops is not his true calling and he wants the SU degree over a d2 or d3 school?

 

[Loki]

Chaz has a full scholarship and a stipend at SU at D2 or D3 probably a partial and no stipend.

I don’t think we are going after another forward even if Cole leaves. I think JB will roll with Taylor in that spot.

Two small with Joe and Judah

 

[MadNY3]

Chaz has a full scholarship and a stipend at SU at D2 or D3 probably a partial and no stipend.

JBA and Owens can walk right now, people. We had an historically bad year because we didn’t have talent like Chaz’s dad and more threads about Chaz himself.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Too

No doubt.

Moreover, these two guys have it made in the shade. Of course, ideally, they'd like to play, but why go to some lower level school when they can reap all the benefits of being on full scholarship, etc. at the D1 level. And, at a very good institution as Syracuse University. They probably realize that their futures aren't playing basketball, and Syracuse's full ride has provided them with a gift of a lifetime.

And JBA can take Wine Tasting 2.

I know one would leave for sure if he can make it work. The other, from what I am told, also wants to find someplace to play.

As bad of the years we had we took a team playing in the national championship final to overtime on the road without Jesse

 

[dasher]

As bad of the years we had we took a team plane in the national championship final to overtime on the road without Jesse

And the team they just beat to the last 3 minutes without Jesse and Buddy.

 

[djcon57]

As bad of the years we had we took a team plane in the national championship final to overtime on the road without Jesse

And Pitt actually beat them...in unc...by double digits.

Pitt still had a dreadful year.

 

[jdubs30]

Still feel very good about Cole coming back

 

[JRHEETER]

Yes JBA and Chaz would like to leave but neither has landing spots….

Which is why I kept saying, we are full.

I said during season in the Judah thread that Benny was 100% coming back.

Benny really enjoys Cuse and although didn’t play a lot, really enjoys Boeheim and realized that this is a process. Benny enjoys learning from JB

If next season is like last season maybe then Benny would look to transfer out.

In my opinion you’re going to see Benny really develop his game this season and the speed of play is also going to slow down for him.

Judah and Benny really clicked and that’s huge to have that kind of chemistry on the court

If this turns out to be true then JBA may end up as the back up center.

 

[Cusefan0307]

The reason JBA didn’t transfer last year was NOT because he didn’t have a spot at another school.

And that same reason might be why he hasn't left yet.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

Fact : Billy Owens fg% when shooting with a foot on the 3 pt line .. 99%

With barely a toe nail on the line 100%

 

[CousCuse]

And that same reason might be why he hasn't left yet.

This didn't age too well.
