Let's Get These Posts Out Of The Way.

[NYCorange]

The season opener is fast approaching, and with it the deluge of opinions on the team that will fill this board. I thought we could just get about 80% of them out of the way right now. So here are a large portion of the posts that will appear on the board this year. Feel free to add any I missed.


The refs screwed us.
Frank Howard is a bad teammate.
Tyus needs to come back for another year.
Oshae needs to come back for another year.
Boeheim needs to retire, the game has passed him by.
Boeheim is a genius and needs to keep coaching for 20 years.
We don’t play our bench enough, the starters are tired.
The refs screwed us.
F*** Doug Gotleib
He gone.
Paschal needs to grab more rebounds.
Is Braswell going to transfer?
It’s Gerry’s fault.
Why aren’t we recruiting top prospects?
We need to play some Man To Man.
I think Buddy is going to leave for the NBA after this year.
Shirt World is a joke.
Tyus is a ballhog
These ACC refs favor Duke/UNC/Virginia.
I hate Kyle Guy.
Joe Lunardi hates us.
Bilas is right.
HAHAHA Georgetown
Kentucky cheats.
The Boneyard is losing their mind over…
Ted Valentine is a Joke.
Is Frank Howard the best PG in Syracuse history?
Gerry Cooney update.
Are we a blue blood?
I know we’re good now, but just wait until next year.
Will Mike Hopkins return?
I miss the Big East.
We're a bubble team again.
The refs screwed us.

That was very clever! Also, I think you are a little bit psychic.

 

[4evaOrange]

You forgot to add “refs screwed us.”

 

[SUSScuse]

What about "We haven't heard from Igor lately"
"Cole was way better than"....
"Bring back the blue curtain"

 

[W'boro'Cuse315]

Declaring in the game thread that you're putting the game on mute 5 minutes in because the announcers suck but then referencing/complaining about things they say for the remainder of the game.

The strange, pathetic race to be the first person in the game thread to declare "ball game" or "that's game" when we're down with 8 mins left.

 

[Eric15]

My personal favorite is when people declare college basketball officiating broken every time a block/charge doesn't go our way.

 

[20Plus]

Not Beth Mowins

This is a great thread

 

[SBU72]

If the board can not discuss these topics this season might as well close down untill March. If you add "the selection committee screwed SU", then come back in May.

Sorry very wrong. If that happened we'd miss Tomcat's reviews! Can't do that. That alone is worth keeping the board alive.

 

[SoBeCuse]

Big one for me. When nobody is ever cutting, looking for teammates, and simply barreling towards the rim/help D, these situations will occur.

 

[NateW]

It’s my favorite too... cuz MOST of the time the COLLEGE refs get it wrong. And that’s not an exaggeration.

 

[Eric15]

Yes it is.

 

[NateW]

Yes it is.

Haha ok maybe... but it does drive me nuts - Cuse or not - that the tie goes to the defender in block/charge situations. Every other sport on the planet breaks their back to showcase offensive stats/points/runs... but in college hoops for some reason curling up into the fetal position in the path of an offensive drive is rewarded. It’s just not fun to watch.

Also college hoops desperately needs NBA continuation. Is there any good reason for the college game to not have it?

 

[skurey]

Well then I guess I won't be posting this season.

 

[JOC44]

We should put [insert power forward who is really tall but lacks agility] at the top of the zone. It would be CRAZY long then.

Was Sherman Douglas a McDonald’s All-American

Cooney sucks

We should press for 40 minutes

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Sidibe’s knees
We should press more
Why doesn’t the press work
Raftery is god
Buddy is stealing Marek’s minutes because of nepotism
Could this team beat the ‘XX team
We need a big man coach
Duke swooped in and stole another recruit
Cal is dirty
Everyone else is dirty and we should get our games back
Carey should start over Howard
Battle should have gone to the nba last year—Elijah is stealing his stats
Who will succeed jb

 

[cliftonparksufan]

Who will succeed jb

Everyone knows it will be Jay Wright. No need to rehash that topic for four more years.

Great job!
How long did it take to come up with the entire list?

The only things missing I can think of are unique to this season:

Either
"Washington should have redshirted"
OR
"Good thing Washington didn't redshirt"

 

[Cusefan0307]

I guess we can shut down the basketball board for the rest of the season.

 

[jncuse]

The AP Ranking suck / are biased.
More evidence that Ennis / Lydon / Richardson should have not left early
The NCAA hates us
The Big 10 is terrible
What time is it
Why is the line only "x" points

This team has no heart (after a 2 point loss)
This team has real heart (after a 2 point win)

This team will not make it to the second week *aftert a tough loss)
This team will make it to the final four. (after a win)

 

[ebucklewis]

Brendan Paul should get more minutes.

 

[Cheriehoop]

If we had known how to play man to man
Why doesn’t so and so start instead of so and so because he definitely should start
Why not have Derrick Coleman, Rosie Bouie etc coach our big men?
Oh and about JB’s last post game presser - he’s awful, he’s great, he’s so honest, he’s so mean, he just says things
Why does JB only play 8?

Gotta scheme our shooters open with super modern cutting edge x’s and o’s that message board posters have a better handle on than D-1 coaches.

About 10 minutes lol. We really do repeat ourselves a lot.
