Day 1 Watch

Why is everyone shocked about an over/under of essentially 4.5 (not counting Marek and Sid)? Way things are going that’s gonna be about the national average per team.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

 

[jordoo]

I’ll take the under (still probably 6 though)

 

[Trueblue25]

Will be bummed if JBA leaves. A positive presence in our athletic program. Has a lot of friends between basketball, football and others. Brings joy to the hill.

Probably because that 4.5 comprises of two players, potentially, that’ve brought a lot of optimism to our program

 

[Oakland]

I’m gonna set the over under on number of players not returning who have eligibility left at 6.5. This includes Sid and Marek.

I'll put $100 on the under.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Iona... lol

other teams have already lost all conference players, leading scorers, etc. we won’t be immune.

[Fly Rodder]

Iona... lol

I figured if JG3 transferred it would be Iona.

I don’t disagree with this point but when’s the last time a relevant contributor announced he was transferring out of Cuse? TT’s the only one that comes to mind.

Just seeing I see why people feel a little blindsided here

 

[NineOneSeven]

I've stayed away from these threads because it's all conjecture and this year is especially unique, but nothing would surprise me I guess. Outside of Buddy transferring. That said, I am crossing my fingers that Kadary is in a Syracuse uniform in the fall.

this year is different than any other for all teams.

 

[kcsu]

Maybe JB talks to Joe and he does decide to leave. Sienna, Canisius he could be a star.

 

[Gotothehole]

It all points back to the administration. Can they just transfer?

 

[Orangejet]

If they want to leave, see ya later. We are the CUSE and after a nice run to the Sweet 16, many players want to play and contribute to the Orange. I believe JB will get the players that will compliment Buddy, Benny and the others who decide to stay.

 

[Eagles20]

Why would Joe have to leave if Richmond takes his starting spot? Nothing like fighting through adversity. Not everyone is weak minded.

That’s fair, still a bummer

 

[UpstateSM]

I’m... excited? I’m ready to just know who is leaving and I’m very intrigued to see how we build a roster going into next season.

The portal is already loaded and if we’re really not toast with BHH there’s potential for a more than solid squad next season. It sucks when kids don’t want to play for my favorite team anymore but change isn’t usually a bad thing.

If Babers and the football program can have a great response to a garbage season so can JB and the boys.

couldn’t that be said then about anyone that were to leave including K?

 

[Briancuse]

If this is inevitable (and it seems like the tea leaves are suggesting it may be), then let’s also suggest some destinations that could be good fits:

Woody - Maryland
JBA - Colgate!
Griffin - Israel Pro League
Marek - French Pro League
Sidibe - retirement
Quincy - Philippines Pro League
Kadary - Iona (this one in particular really bums me out)

So Kadary is going to leave an acc team that just went to.the sweet 16 to play in the maac? Lol.

I’m with you. I love the off season almost as much as the season. It will be fun seeing what happens and which pieces leave the board and get added.

The best part of being a sports fan is convincing myself every off-season that my team got better haha

I think their a difference mentally when losing a starting spot.
I just see a lot of people saying they want Joe to leave to keep Kadary. It’s all over social media.

I don’t fault a guy like Jba leaving to find a better opportunity. He could stay all 4 years and not play at all.
