Message: [QUOTE="JeremyCuse, post: 4515503, member: 43"] I think you pretty much nailed it here. Spallina has been hyped long before he got to Cuse and it would be the same if he went to UVA or Maryland or wherever. Him coming in after the worst SU season in 50 years or whatever it was I think actually benefits him as most rationale SU fans realize this isn't a final four team as currently constructed and I think expectations are as such. Spallina is also surrounded by talent and Thomson's hype has been growing more and more since last summer, people ask me more about him now then Spallina. I am sure there are going to be growing pains, dudes a frosh going against teams like Maryland, Duke, Princeton, ND and others, he's gonna see the best of the best. I think most people expect that Spallina will figure it out as he has at pretty much every other level. What the prior poster was describing was a Jordan Evans type situation, that seems highly unlikely to play out here. [/QUOTE]
