(Mike's Mailbox)[/URL] (PS; Waters)[/B] [I] Is Kai Jones dropping Syracuse from his top 3 good news for getting Akok Akok or Isaiah Stewart? -- William R. Mike: Kai Jones, a 6-foot-10 forward who attends Brewster Academy in Wolfeboro, N.H., announced earlier this week that he had narrowed his list to three schools -- Florida State, Texas and Baylor. This was interesting because Jones' list prior to his announcement only had four schools. The only school eliminated was Syracuse. I have heard from some Syracuse fans who speculated (hoped?) that Jones' decision meant good news in terms of SU's pursuit of elite 2019 prospects like Isaiah Stewart (La Lumiere) and Akok Akok (Putnam Science Academy). That's not the case. Still, Jones' decision isn't necessarily all that bad either. I believe that Jones did Syracuse in a favor in the sense that it's better to know sooner rather than later if you're not going to get a recruit. There is an old coaches' saying that goes, "The best answer you can get is Yes and the second-best answer is No.'' Now, the Syracuse coaches can move on rather than wait it out for a recruit that they weren't in line for.[/I] ...
