Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 4309947, member: 289"] Obviously, the Boeheim's Army SU alums aren't going to bad-mouth anybody on the current team but that doesn't make their favorable comments meaningless. I was especially interested in the talk about Mounir Hima: “They had a big man that was battling Rak,” Fair said. “Rak’s a big load, but (Hima) was there for the fight though.” “He’s going to be good,” Christmas said. “Long wingspan. That’ll work in the zone. I wish I could stay longer and show him the ropes. When kids come here, they learn from everybody. He’s got to listen to Coach and everything will work.” (I wish he could stay and show him the ropes, too.) It doesn't surprise me that Judah Mintz was impressive. I think we all expect a lot of him this year. I've speculated that Mintz is so good that our other five recruits, all of whom are at least 6-6, could be in the mix at forward, which made these comments on Quadir Copeland interesting: "When he played at Syracuse, Tyler Ennis was generously listed at 6-feet, 2-inches. Syracuse freshman Quadir Copeland stands 6-feet, 6-inches, but possesses the skills of a guard. “He’s a huge guard,” Ennis said. “He doesn’t look like a guard, but watching him play, he is one.” Andrew White was impressed with Chris Bunch, (and apparently not dismayed by his release point): “My main matchup was No. 5,” White said. “Good shooter, tall kid, knockdown shooter, athletic, high IQ. He had confidence. It was a great matchup.” And if CJ Fair likes Benny Williams, maybe we should, too: "C.J. Fair saw a little bit of himself in Williams, a 6-8 forward who played 11.5 minutes per game as a freshman last season. “He’s going to be good,” Fair said. “He’s got good confidence. He’s got a good offensive game. He competes and goes hard. I like his game. That’s the guy I paid attention to the most.” If he's got a good offensive game now, that will be a major development. And they liked the freshmen's confidence. [MEDIA=youtube]VLGD2H1eOmw[/MEDIA] "This is the classic CBS theme to NFL football from 1965-1969. The song is Confidence, as known as the Walter Mitty March.
