The future of the program may be riding on Donnie Freeman.  It’s not a great situation to be placing your hopes on a true freshman. However, maybe we catch lightning in a bottle to jumpstart the mojo of the program again because that’s what I feel we need. Those who’ve identified the program as being stale are correct.

It’s not necessarily Red’s doing. He could probably be a good coach but needs better players. He did a nice job this year.

I was worried about recruiting in the portal to what is now viewed as a mediocre program by most independent onlookers. And, so far, objectively we’re not a top tier landing spot.

Red did land Freeman (and maybe Moore will turn out to be the star, who knows), so the future kind of rests on that.  All it takes is a spark and we could be back in business.

The team as it’s now constructed doesn’t appear to be more than a decent team. We at Syracuse want to be more than decent. We want to compete for conference championships and a shot at the grand prize. BUT, if we’re lucky, Freeman (and perhaps Moore) are the wildcards that flip in our favor. That’s really the best hope for next year and perhaps beyond if we want a revival.
