Georgetown Game Thread...

[AZOrange]

Next year looks worse if thats somehow possible. Frank and Chukwu the only pure 1 and 5 on the roster. Can't wait. :bang:

Frank is not a pure 1. He's not even a pure bball player.

 

[NKR1978]

We may have a losing record overall next year -- I am not even joking.

This year. I'll be pleasantly surprised if we're over 500.

 

[CaptainJ]

Hopefully we dont get swept and lost to St John's too...

 

[two3zone]

I'm saying nothing about whether we should have won or lost. Officiating is pathetic and it's ruining the sport. I disagree with calls a majority of the time. It's a joke.

We lost, had zero to do with the officials.

 

[We Are Syracuse]

I don't think Wildhack will just blindly accept this loose transition from JB to Hop.

I pray I pray...

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Imagine I'm just being hyperbolic, but I'd be perfectly happy to have Wildhack allow JB to retire with grace this year and open up a national search. The program needs new blood. I'll take the s***storm from basketball alumni.

Can't do that to Hop. He was promised the job and has waited patiently. Offer him a mega payoff? Epic dollars for pain and suffering?

The problem with an outsider is that we are used to continuity. Anyone who comes in and has success will likely be targeted by the NBA or a college that pays market value salary. JB has us spoiled in terms of longevity and cost.

WILL GIVE PROPS WHEN ITS DUE THO. GREAT GAME TL!!!

If it wasn't for your first sentence, you would have yourself a positive post. But I imagine that's very difficult for you since you wouldn't dare have anyone misinterpret that as you liking Boeheim.

[Zelda Zonk]

You're too kind.

I think he meant "combined."

no shiz. did you read my post?

My bad man. Read it too fast. I agree with you.

 

[AZOrange]

My 6 year olds team just runs around in circles. No one shoots. Looks like this team.

 

[two3zone]

Has Gillon finished once today? Every time he drives I just assume it's not going to end well.

With about 10 seconds left I think he did.

 

[CaptainJ]

JB's performance may force him to retire... some games it looks like he doesnt care. I havent seen the fire nearly as often so far this season.

What is there to be positive about??????? I wish I could be positive about this program but I am not in the least bit.

 

[NateW]

My bad man. Read it too fast. I agree with you.

major lack of intensity from this team. lydon seems to be the only one with a pulse. sucks!

So pay market salary. What the ****!? This is Syracuse Basketball and were in the ACC.

Promises mean nothing until a contract is signed. Wildhack isn't that naive and stupid not to consider other options. Not worried about the future actually. Pretty much anybody can draw up better offense or else one is just shunning all the recruitniks in terms of the actual talent on this team. Wildhack has more cache and power than JB in the current modern world. Not worried outside of this season.

Hard to win when 1 player shows up for SU. This team could have some of the dumbest players I've ever seen. No basketball IQ. I hoped Boeheim would bench Howard in the 2nd half but no, and then he continued to kill SU's hopes of victory.White 3-11. Gillon 4-14. Howard 2-6 with 6 TOs. Thompson 2-8. 56% FT shooting. How many missed lay-ups? Terrible defense. No positives to take away from this game other than the play of Lydon.

Dude. You need an Imodium.

 

[CaptainJ]

Tough team to bet on man. Never know what team is going to show up. The only team I know that could win this game by 20 or lose.

I pick the wrong ones lately... I feel dejected

 

[CaptainJ]

Or Pepto! It coats(opposite of JB!), it soothes, it relieves!

Then pack it in. I'm going to have faith that SU will pay to keep the program great.

 

[cuseattle]

ACC run is our only hope. Help me Obi Wan Kenobi.

I use a "system" with my gambling, learned many years ago not to ever bet with my heart or feelings. I use all the analytics as I can and try to make mathematical decisions on my bets. After a season of tweaks a few years back and going legit hard on it this year after a lot of testing last year, I'm already up a month and a half's salary this young college basketball season. And that's with a couple of days of tough, big losses.
