Message: [QUOTE="ACCobservor, post: 4962198, member: 9663"] I am a reader of this site for many years, but only recently got an account. Like all fan bases, this one vacillates between euphoria and despair depending on what happened on the court in the previous game or two. The one consistent thing I’ve noticed is that posters here seem to have unrealistic expectations about incoming freshman. No matter the accolades or number of stars a player has, you have to expect less from Frosh. I know the landscape of CBB has changed for the worse from a fan’s perspective. But if the Orange is going to reclaim a lofty perch in the basketball landscape and become a “Program” rather than a different team from year to year, then bringing even the most heralded Freshman along gradually should be the expectation. Carmelo comes along once every 25 years, and lucky to even get that! [/QUOTE]
