[bornagainOrange]

@JonRothstein is at the carmelo center today for practice. please feel free to post Jon's corniest lines from this afternoon

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein1m
DaJuan Coleman is noticeably leaner since the end of last season. Moving well and much more active around the rim.

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein1m
Everytime Cooney shoots a 3, Boeheim and Hopkins scream "BABA BOOEY" or "MASHED POTATOES".

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstei
Marc Schwartz is in attendance. Just saw him cleaning the toilets while I was taking a piss.

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein5m
The biggest thing that's initially stood out from this practice is the accuracy of Jerami Grant's outside shot. Breakout year ahead.

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein4m
SU staff raving about Tyler Ennis' maturity. Frosh PG has also leaned out. Not as stocky as he was in HS. Maturing physically.

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein4m
So much Ed O'Bannon in C.J. Fair...

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein2m
Jim Boeheim told me Michael Gbinije will likely play PG when Tyler Ennis is out of the game. Trevor Cooney is another possibility.

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein2m
Early prediction on Syracuse starting five --- Tyler Ennis, Michael Gbinije, C.J. Fair, Rakeem Christmas, DaJuan Coleman...

The Orange brand has never been stronger RT @TheRecruitScoop: Syracuse has landed a commitment from 2014 Cushing Academy PG Kaleb Joseph.

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein2m
Made a crack to coach about how the zone's not the only thing getting longer now that he has Juli, probably never invited back to practice.

Ron Patterson brings a different dimension to Syracuse. More like a Cincinnati/Marquette type of guard. Pit bull. Needs to improve his O.

 

[Rocco]

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein47s
Syracuse should still be devastating defensively, but their young guards are unproven. Back court play + outside shooting are two main keys.

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein1m
Syracuse non-conference slate before ACC: Maui, St. John's at MSG, home vs. Villanova and Indiana.

I don't like my 7 foot 4 inch guys shooting outside jumpers, unless he's the second coming of Rick Smits.

Pretty sure Boeheim would beat up Coach K in the octagon. Can see him coming out to the music of Legion of Doom.

Damn...I tried to give you #3000 but wouldn't you know Tee would T you up first...

Initially thought B.J. Johnson would be a red shirt candidate, but he's showing some promise right now. Legit SF + a lefty. Deep range.

Finally couchburn
One of the best times of the year!!!
To bad hes missing Saint Beast

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein2m
SU staff is raving about Trevor Cooney. Had disappointing season last year. Critical piece for the Orange bc of shot making ability.

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein1m
Syracuse's depth in the front court could extend to the top of the 2-3. Keep an eye out for B.J. Johnson playing as a guard defensively.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Not a compliment Jon....

I see that as a HUGE complinent. SU can always use toughness.

Shooting again will be the key. All these big active bodies we have will be null and void if teams pack it in. Even a little better outside shooting than last year could be huge.

Meh...Rothstein. When was Ennis considered stocky anyways? This is coming from a guy who in person told a friend and I that Eugene Harvey was better than Flynn.

 

[rrlbees]

Nice job by Rothstein. But doing a twitter thing allows the clown fans on twitter to knock our own players.

Boyeeeee!
I'm everywhere you think I'm not.
Not sure what I meant, but it sounded good for a millisecond.

I just meant the reference to a cincy/marq guard. Yes , I love the toughness compliment. I should warn you, im a huge smart a s s!

That was gold.
Still, I'm not sure if all of these are serious.
My pants are confused. Even knowing it's Rothstein.

Boeheim on Syracuse "We have pretty much the same guys up front. We'll be good defensively. Our back court though, is a bit new."

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein1m
Boeheim on Jerami Grant "He's spent a lot of time working on his shot. He should have a good year."

 

[Rocco]

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein1m
Boeheim on Tyler Ennis "He's as good as any point guard we've brought in here."

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein1m
Boeheim on DaJuan Coleman "He's lost quite a bit of weight. The game is slowing down a bit for him."

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein48s
Boeheim on Trevor Cooney "He's lost a bit of weight. I think he'll have a good year. He's an important piece."

 

[Rocco]

Jon Rothstein‏@JonRothstein50s
Boeheim on C.J. Fair "He's shot the ball really well. His perimeter game has really come along."
