JJ Starling Transferring to Syracuse

[cliftonparksufan]

Unfortunately if Judah leaves it isn’t a net gain.

Ok Brent.

 

[Millhouse]

Not raining on the parade, just suggesting that we give promising future sophomores here the same long leash (bell). If a five star game came here and had that freshman season, we might be wondering about him more than we are.

 

[Jasoncuse]

Love the athleticism…..but before we get too excited can we acknowledge the need for a lot of off-season shooting practice, especially if he is going to play the 2 guard! When other players absolutely torched our zone defense this season, JJ went 3-9 (1-6 from 3) for 7 points AND 3-10 (0-3 from 3) for 6 points in the two games against us.

Well luckily nobody else plays zone

 

[OttosDad]

He didn’t recruit. That’s not a joke when I say that. He talked to Taylor on a few occasions and talked to Judah when he needed to. But I’ve always said the kids want to be recruited by the head coach and you can see already how much it matters. Him and Judah in backcourt. Oh boy

You have reason to believe Judah is staying or speculation and wishful thinking by you??

 

[JarHeadJim]

Have to wonder what this means for JGIII.

Starling isn't coming here to sit.

HE GONE!

Yeah, I'd much rather Starling succeeds Joe.

JGIII and Judah are both gone. Judah has a better chance of transferring than coming back to Syracuse

 

[Wrinkle]

Starling says he will play 'point guard and shooting guard'. Reading between the lines, but Judah coming back confirmed? If Judah was gone he would've been told he was playing PG 100%

 

[RF2044]

I feel if we don't win it wont be because we have a lack of talent which is the first step. If Mintz comes back our backcourt can play with any backcourt in the nation.

They'll be way more athletic and versatile than what we've fielded in a LONG time.

It’s trending toward him staying and Joe leaving

Where can I sign up for that right now?

Buzz kill

What? That makes zero sense. Why would a lead guard with his minutes transfer?

 

[jgeorge322]

Joe would be an amazing sixth man. He should stay!

 

[Jasoncuse]

"My relationship with Coach Autry is very strong," Starling said. "That is a guy I know I can trust, and he isn't sugarcoating anything. He is going to allow his players to play with freedom and also instill confidence whenever they need it. We are going to push the ball in transition and play to the best of our abilities with the utmost confidence. I will most likely be a point guard and shooting guard, but I am willing to play whatever role is necessary for us to win games.

Love reading stuff like this

This is an excellent pick up and quick start for Autry.

It’s trending toward him staying and Joe leaving

Have any info on if we’re looking at any other transfers?

 

[CA Monk]

He’s fast. He can dribble. He can press. He’s very athletic. Good size. Good handle. He’s home.
Can he shoot? What were his stats?
How many days to tip-off?

 

[Dave]

Ok Brent.

Really? I’m not correct? JJ is an upgrade over Judah Mintz? Or is that just a dumb throwaway comment? Please answer the question; is JJ Starling and upgrade over Judah?

I have had similar concerns about his shooting specifically.

Benny is a prime example. He might flourish under an uptempo offense.. We know he has potential. He just needs confidence in his abilities.

 

[Wrinkle]

We are about to be starting two 1st round picks in the backcourt. Mark my goddamn words

Relax it was a joke. We all know how important Judah is to this team.

Point guard U.

We're all full until someone transfers out, Judah turns pro or one of the seniors declines to take an extra year. 13 schollys: Judah, Joe, JJ, Jesse, Carey, Hima, Patterson, Brown, Copeland, Sy, Taylor, Bell, Benny.
