Most important players next year

Nobody said that. You are totally undervaluing Richmond. He is a key to next year so obviously people are upset to hear this if it's true.
He’s not undervaluing him. He’s just saying he’s not as valuable as the other kid who’s shooting nearly 50% from 3 the past month and scoring 25 a game.
 
The only thing it has to do with Blackwell's comments was that it got me asking today. Hoping of course to hear it was B.S. I didn't. What bothers me is that I was told it wasn't about playing time. I think that means it was about his college experience this year. I am not saying he is gone, by any means. Just reporting what I heard. I almost wish I hadn't at this point.
Who was happy about their college experience this year?
 
So your banking on Joe playing like he did the past couple of games and not most of the year, and playing 40 mpg?
He’s not banking on anything, he’s just saying Buddy’s the key ingredient rather than KR

Brian just said it. And I love Richmond. I hope he doesn't leave. honestly, I don't want anyone to leave and that is not what I would have said last year. We had guys that were never going to help us last year. That isn't true this year.

Yeah you should have kept quiet. Any unhappiness is cured by a sweet 16 run.
 
LOL Who are you trying to convince? I'm sold. Talk to Kadray.

So we are losing AG and QG to the NBA, Woody/and one of the Centers to transfer, and now Kadary to go along with the expected departures of Seniors Bourama and Marek.

Not Happening Sweet 16 run changes things. Since when did we become Pittsburgh. Are we finishing last in the ACC or are we in the Sweet 16 ?

No one, mostly you, knows who will be here next year. Having said that, none of these player moves have anything to do with each other. These kids will make the moves that are right for them.

You lose your entire team to additional departures when your last place in the conference and not in the Sweet 16. What don't you understand about this.
 
Would be on par for Syracuse. Other teams get their best players to stay an extra year. Syracuse gets their beat player to transfer out for some weird reason.
Seems about right and the reason the program can’t get off the bubble.
I had lunch today with a Carolina friend who said that he heard all five of their starters were leaving. He was disconsolate.

I know that freshman was the talk of sports radio yesterday in Charlotte. Also with Mark Packer in the afternoon too.

Almost? Your tolerance for pain must be high.

As always, I want to thank you for sharing what you hear. For those of us who have been here "forever," we understand how "rock solid" your information typically is. Many of us, or at least I hope there are "many," also understand that situations like this are usually multidimensional and fluid.

Here's hoping that Kadary stays!

I think Richmond is about as important as Buddy, but I don't know how anyone could be offended at the notion that someone thinks Buddy is the most important player next year.

There’s an argument to be made, sure. But as it stands now this is Buddy’s team. Kadary’s got the lotto potential and could be the face of Cuse eventually next season, but Buddy has ACC POY potential.

Fun argument, and good problem to have.

Agree on this, but it probably wears differently when you're on a high-level D1 basketball team. Your average freshman this year can still see their friends without worrying that they're going to pass covid to the entire team and put them on a pause.
 
I think it's time Marek hooked Kadary up with his connections on the cheerleading squad. He probably knows a few cute pizza delivery girls too.

Scratch the last part. I haven't seen a cute delivery girl in ages, I think there's heightened awareness of security risks walking up to the front door of a stranger's house. Now it's just pimple-faced boys or older men.

Actually, there is a lot about that out there. Trouble in Carolina. The portal will give and it will take.
