Franklin Howard has noticeably improved his jump shot. Looks like a different player. Will compete for a starting spot at PG w John Gillon.

Andrew White is going to remind Syracuse fans of Demetris Nichols. A big-time offensive player that gets buckets. Deep range and long.

So much Demetris Nichols in Andrew White...

Syracuse sophomore Tyler Lydon has gained 26 pounds since last season, per Jim Boeheim.

Paschal Chukwu is going to be like Martin Brodeur in the back of Syracuse's vaunted 2-3 zone. It's not shots blocked, it's shots altered.

Early prediction on Syracuse's starting five: Franklin Howard, Tyus Battle, Tyler Lydon, Tyler Roberson, Dajuan Coleman.

Two things that stand out at Syracuse: elite level shooting & elite length in the 2-3. Would expect one 6-4 guy & one 6-7 at top of zone.
 
Palpable buzz at Syracuse regarding Tyler Lydon. Affects the game in so many ways. Shot blocker, rebounder, initiator, and bucket getter.
