James and Buddy

[CousCuse]

I think they should play together 1 more year at another school. I have to believe the reason they wouldn't consider staying at SU is because of all the contempt it has brought on Jim and their family in general. I don't know if any thing like that would possibly be in their plans, but I would be a huge fan of theirs no matter where they played.

I literally agree with nothing in this post, save for the last sentence.

I just can't see Buddy's NCAA career ended by such BS. If you don't think there is nonstop contempt for Jim because of the supposed nepotism, I don't know what to tell you. James said he wanted to win that Duke game for his brother to give him another shot, well go to another school for 1 year and write a new chapter of their own away from Jim. Personally, I think Jim would be all for it.

Unless we inexplicably make a post-season tournament,

Buddy threw a punch. Got suspended for throwing a punch and a poster clearly looking for attention says its BS.
Maybe if we won the Georgetown, Pittsburgh, Miami games like we should it wouldn’t be the last game.

If James and Jackson want to continue playing James should try to win his appeal. If they want to continue playing best of wishes to each of them.

you got a degree from cornell and a year at syracuse. start your real career.

Why would they ever play elsewhere? I mean it's just asinine. I don't see them coming back. Jimmy had a great career as did Buddy- it just didn't end as they wished. No reason they can't be in and around the program which itself might help heal wounds over time.

I'm hoping this thread is just a fever dream.

You think pops would like if they went to Georgetown to play for Ewing and resurrect the program?

If Jimmy wants to be a graduate assistant next year that is fine.
He should try and get that extra year of eligibility.
He could be like the South Carolina QB who was going to be a grad assistant the Gamecocks got buried with injuries and he played QB for them instead of grad transfering.

If Jimmy was a grad assistant next year and we got a rash of injuries he could suit up but if he doesn’t want to be a grad assistant good luck and enjoy life.

Because Buddy's last act will be remembered as a very big negative. If I were a coach, depending on what type of program I run, I would ask them. Why not.

Seton Hall.

That would be a pretty sweet way for them to wrap things up.

Rhoden, Cale, Aiken, Obiagu and Yetna are all Seniors, no? That's a pretty substantial roster turnover so they're losing quite a bit. It's also the Big East - the conference Syracuse built so it's sort of fitting to get the boys in it for a year to take down the Hoyas!

It wasn't his last act, and only cretins will remember it that way and dwell on the negative.
