Joe Girard transferring to Clemson

[UnderHisOwnPower]

Pitt?!’!!!

 

[hoopsupstate]

I will still celebrate wins over Pitt.

We don’t beat Pitt.

 

[Motensocks]

It would be very interesting to see how he would play and shoot on the other side of the zone.

Honestly, id still be yelling his name, just now he 'd be the open shooter instead of the defender.

[Sbucketball]

He’ll have to brush up on his soaking game.

 

[tee1222]

So, roughly 67% chance Joe busts our chops, perhaps two or three times a year.

Myth.

But if he and his girl get married that's a pretty big tell that he'd be heading west.

BYU honor code wouldn't permit cohabitation.

Hope he goes to ND. Great degree and Joe will feel comfortable there. If he goes to Clemson ill puke

If he goes to ND he’ll go 7-10 next year and I’ll be pissed

 

[RF2044]

He'd be crazy not to go to BYU, get unlimited shots, and benefit from a slightly lower caliber of opponent.

 

[Ragman2000]

I'll be really sad if he goes to an ACC school. I really don't want to root against him. This sucks.

 

[kcsu]

I want him to go the school that will help him in life
ND Stanford Duke.

BYU is playing in the Big 12 next season.

 

[Cuse1055]

Ok then. Happy with JJ and hope Joe goes somewhere he can get good minutes and another degree. Prefer it not be an ACC school.

 

[Cuse1055]

BYU is playing in the Big 12 next season.

Forget who’s in what conference anymore.

 

[RF2044]

BYU is playing in the Big 12 next season.

And?

Point stands, UMass.

 

[CousCuse]

And?

Point stands, UMass.

Most analysts rate the Big 12 as the top college basketball conference.

Gee... I wonder if that will change once #2 seed Texas is no longer in the B12, and replaced by qualitatively inferior replacements.

 

[CousCuse]

Gee... I wonder if that will change once #2 sed Texas is no longer in the B12, and replaced by qualitatively inferior replacements.

Houston is better than Texas and they're in the Big12 next year as well.

I can't believe I'm wasting bandwidth having a real life discussion with a burner account persona masquerading as an SU fan.

 

[FloridaCuse]

Adam Zagoria tweeted on March 29th that Joe had already had home visits with Butler, LSU and Stanford and was having home visits with Pitt and Washington (Mike Hopkins). I'm surprised Jon Rothstein didn't mention those or at least confirm them with Joe. So that's 3 ACC schools in the mix. I've heard some believe Pitt is most likely. I'm pulling for Washington.

 

[Sherman20]

Gross if he stays in the ACC.

 

[cliftonparksufan]

Gross if he stays in the ACC.

If all other factors are fairly even (NIL, playing time), I think the ability for his family to see him play could come into play. He stayed in Glens Falls when others suggested he goes away to prep school. He came to Syracuse when he had opportunities to go elsewhere.

 

[Cuse12]

Gross if he stays in the ACC.

What if his best NIL offer by a long shot is within ACC? If you were 21 ish and were offered hundreds of thousands…. Would staying in conference matter? It wouldn’t to me

 

[CuseFTW]

Gross if he stays in the ACC.

Lol. Just like JJ Starling?
