**New Commit: 4 Star PF Tyler Lydon**

[jordoo]

To be fair he had serious shoulder issues and stuff.

No doubt injuries made it impossible to know for sure what he could have been.

 

[jordoo]

BTW I'm a huge kOng fan and I think that his fall against Lville in the BET hurt our chances in the NCAA's because he had been playing very well before then and was just not the same in the NCAA. Not that we would have beaten oklahoma anyway but we needed all hands on decj and long sleeves to miss a few.

docsu, post: 778723, member: 206"]The kids ranked 52 on 247... The Kong/DBMS comments are a little misplaced IMO.

Well Its gonna be tough because we could only compare him to other white guys right? I'm sure he doesn't possibly remind anyone of damone brown.

 

[AWMKY]

This dude can shoot and is 6'8" - let's hope it translates like Southerland.

Kong was really sick the first two games of the tournament with the flu down in florida.

Hope the young chap from Pine Plains consorts with a better social circle.

Slow down, big boy. Can we let Mcullough get here before we chase him out?

Passion you're right!! We gonna watch some games together this year??

 

[dundundun]

Good pickup. Seems like a solid 4 year contributor. I wonder if he is done growing? Only a junior and he looks like hes still very young.

He'll be at least 7ft tall by the time he gets on campus

 

[bozophobe]

Enough with the Tylers already!

Sincerely,

Shot 42 percent from 3 (39-92) as a freshmen, and 36 percent as a sophmore. avered just under 15ppg last year. Like his passing skills also. He had a no look and a behind the back in that video while averaging 3.7 assists per game last year for a 6'8 player. And he averaged 10.3 rebounds last year despite only weighting 180.

Read on the providence board in sept that Cuse was his dream school.
Seems like a bright kid

I don't know why but he reminds me of either Andy Rautins or Craig Forth.

 

[retro44]

does this mean Dook and UNC fans can hate a tall white forward from the 'cuse.

can't wait to hear the complaining on his flops

We're getting better at this "dream school" business, ha? That's Joseph and Lydon recently. Also, McCullough was pretty pumped on going to SU all the while. Derrick Jones is a Cuse fan as well.

I propose a nickname for Mr. Lydon: Rotten...

...as in Johnny "Rotten" Lydon.

If he turns out to be a good shooter, The Pistol would work too.

Novak is so one dimensional it hurts.

 

[Lawrinson14]

get ready to feel old...

This kid was born in 1996.

 

[FLorange]

Didn't look very hard to see if this was already posted but I only saw the one featuring his shooting. This video shows the type of athlete that he is.

For all you younger guys and gals who may not be old enough to remember, this is how it was back in the mid to late 1980's when SU was a staple on a young, up and coming network called ESPN. Pearl Washington and Syracuse became household names, and SU was being referred to as " ...my dream school" for the first time. Those were heady days. Thank God they seem to be back.
