I love the positivity, but when I read this... I think this; regarding 2016-17 season.

I am not sure JB knows how to avoid speaking in extremes anymore. Everything is hyperbole.
Jim Boeheim to ESPN: 'This is the best team we've had in a long time'
Totally agree with you about "comments too early". Been there before/recently. However one thing I heard over the past year was how tough a defender Hughes was in practice against Battle. Not hearing much about his defense, only his offense.I hate these quotes. We had Wes Johnson in 2010 and he didn’t get this hype.
Hughes numbers don’t add up to this hype.
This smacks of the comments on the 2016 team being NC good.
Just say little.
But I'm not sure he was wrong about that team on paper, pre-season. After those comments, we lost 2/3's of our front line -- Coleman couldn't even run down the Court and Chukwu went out with a freak eye injury. So all that "size" and JB's confidence went over the deck with injuries to our 7'2 shot-blocker and our 6-10/275 lb. low-post scorer and rebounder. That forced JB to start playing guys out of position, and the rest is history.I love the positivity, but when I read this... I think this; regarding 2016-17 season.

Gonna make SU great againI love the positivity, but when I read this... I think this; regarding 2016-17 season.

The fans have seen neither one play against college competition. HmmmJB is high on Hughes.
The fans are higher on Carey.
Remember this...

I know we can't do much with the past but man, I REALLLLLY wished that 16-17 team made it to the tourny. We had the offensive power to take down some BIG teams...but also lose to a 16 seed LOL

Yea I thought there was a a good amount of hype about wes before he played a game for us. Pretty sure most knew he was one of the better players on the team from his year sitting out and practicing with the guys.I actually remember JB talking very highly about Wes to the media
