Class of 2024 G Elijah Moore (NY) COMMITTED & SIGNED TO SYRACUSE (1/28/23)

[jr4750]

for those that know, is he a good enough athlete for his shot to immediately translate in D1? In the albeit very limited video I’ve seen he seems to be solid in all areas but doesn’t jump off the court to me. Reminds me of JJ a bit in how his career may look.

 

[Cusefan0307]

He’s not ranked on ESPN because they only scout the EYBL because they have 1 analyst. The fact some of our own fans continuously run with it and say he’s UR overall is quite annoying.

I'm hopeful, but will wait and see. I've gotten hype in the past off of these videos (from Moyer, Anslem, Newton, and most recently Justin Taylor etc.) and come D1 play time, the results were not great. Let's remember this kid is not in most respectable top 100 lists. We will be lucky if he "flew under the radar" and comes in with a chip on his shoulder and is able to cash them in. My hope is that he gets a few minutes as a freshman, keeps a level head and sees a pathway to much more minutes as he progresses over his college career. If he comes in as the 200th ranked player and lives in a dream world of playing major minutes and be one or two and done...he gone to the portal, and next man up.

go through the post in this thread. You won’t find many kid that works harder.

He also played in the JBC. The people who know, know how good he is/can be. If he can reach his potential with his combination of flashy skillset, personality and social media presence, it’ll be taking him BIGGGG places.

Reallllly hope he gets meaningful time this year

He's going to play. He can really shoot it. He'll get his chance.

Ok, I would be ecstatic if he it is truly the case of Choppa being underrated and overlooked because he did not play in the EYBL.

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

My son’s friend is playing against Choppa right now, he is a ridiculous shot maker.

Well said. He's top 60 per 247S, top 65 per Rivals, top-10 SG per 247S. He dropped 67 pts in a game. I'm happy he'll be wearing Orange

ESPN is generally far behind in recruiting compared to the other sites. So I don't think taking their opinion as the main one is the right move.

Moore's final RSCI ranking was 77, in spite of being unranked by two of the services counted in the consensus rankings. The bottom half of the top50 often has wonky rankings, as sometimes ranking sites leave off players who are highly ranked by the other ranking sites. It is then uncertain if it was an oversight or a deliberate snub by the site leaving a player unranked.

Freeman finished in 8th place on the RSCI ranking, FWIW. Our highest ranked recruit since Donte Greene.

Our class of 2 players came in 16th with 117 points.

For sure, will be a stud year 2

Save up the NIL money to keep him for year 2. It’s sad we have to think that way nowadays.

Yup, the main reason why I hope he gets time even if hes raw

He’s also without a doubt the hardest working kid. Have heard impressive things about his work ethic and drive from people in the program. Puts in extra time every morning with his dad. He’s basically the opposite of some of the kids we’ve had last few years.

UR on ESPN is a joke

ESPN didn't have a chance to see him play. Too busy watching Bronny.

Elijah was on the Captain Jack (Ian Jackson) Pod, and here is an Orangemen clip from it...

Don't use the media function.

Just copy the link of the tweet, paste it, and change 'x' to 'twitter'.

Good grief, that sounds like a lot of work.

Fewer clicks, actually.

It is hoped that the next release of the site software will take care of this.
