Class of 2019 CG Joe Girard III (NY) SIGNED WITH SYRACUSE

[cliftonparksufan]

At this point, if we somehow have Goodine/buddy/Quade/Hughes still in 2019... not to mention Jalen or whatever 2019 top 100 guard we may land regardles, i dont really care about landing Girard or Bertram. Complete luxury goods imo.

People are still sleeping on Girard. Coach K and these other coaches know what they are doing. BTW, here is a nice article in his hometown paper from today.
As his college commitment looms, what is next for Joseph Girard III?

Some players you recruit because you "have to" (perception) and don't necessarily "want to".

I'm not sure if that's the case here, but it seems like it.

There have been a couple of situations like this in the past.

And did we land any of those recruits?

Nope. One we actively helped get placed at another school in our conference. Another was well, very complex. Ended up at our school in another sport. (shouldn't be hard to figure out)

What a very weird past week

Wow I guess we still want joe

 

[dasher]

Wow I guess we still want joe

Yes we do. And we aren't alone.

 

[Lucid]

Certainly odd behavior if we're "just not that interested."

 

[Trueblue25]

Just guessing but could this mean QG’s likely to stay at Kentucky?

Wouldn't have anything to do with that. Howard and Battle will be gone by the time they would be playing here. Possible Washington could transfer, Hughes could end up playing more 3. We will likely need at least 2 guards in 2019.

GMac can swing by Loudonville on his way home.

I think that ship has sailed.

Boeheim has incredible energy and passion at his age. We are lucky.

So is Julie. I have seen JG3 play. I have seen Bertram play. No knock on Bertram, but in my view the intangibles all stack up in favor of this kid. Will be very happy if he goes Orange.

 

[Ringostar57]

Smart and automatic not mention hard nosed.

 

[Orangefan1]

I actually feel like we have a better shot then duke does here. I think since we are close to home that’s the biggest advantage

 

[PauliePeppas]

I still believe Girard was offered by Duke to entice Stewart who is becoming their number 1 big target

Not true. About offering to entice Stewart. Girard stands on his own. What would be Duke's offer be for?

 

[PauliePeppas]

Not true.

Im talking about Duke, should've made that clear

 

[dasher]

Im talking about Duke

Oh. Maybe but I don't think so.
