Next year's roster

[Giants1973]

I see Jimmy staying at Cornell and getting an MBA from that school. I think the Ivy League just allowed one time waiver for the lost COVID season

Jimmy in the transfer portal

Jimmy entered the portal last November when it appeared the Ivy League was going to screw all the Seniors.

Since then the Ivy's have agreed to let 4th year Seniors return next year as Grad students..

He is in the portal and "Scotty" has already locked onto those coordinates

Woody is a tough call. If I’m him, I just wait to see if Quincy and Marek and Allen return. If they do, I can’t see myself getting many minutes next year, and it becomes a challenge to imagine how long it’ll take before I have a major role. If one of them leaves, the picture gets a bit nicer. Two? Better still. He can’t come back to the status quo and expect to play much. Not that he isn’t good enough, but someone has to be subtracted and we just saw how long it took for JB to trust someone after predetermining roles and accountability.

Plus, Jimmy (is) in the transfer portal.

Girards worst enemy 3/4 of this year was the chemistry around him, not himself. Our backline will be so much better for him next year. He never really had much of a chance to take over a game this year.

Being in the transfer portal just allows other schools to formally contact you. Even if you are in the transfer portal, you can return back to your original school. Most transfers don't but it does't mean you're shutting the door on returning.

 

[Bulldog04]

Marek gone, barama gone. QG gone. AG gone. Woody gone.

Jimmy B transferring in.

And this is not an opinion. This is what I’m told to expect...

It’s crazy how this Woody stuff has unfolded. And for those asking I give it a 1% chance he’s back

Marek gone, barama gone. QG gone. AG gone. Woody gone.

We're in deep trouble if that's the case.

 

[UpstateSM]

We're in deep trouble if that's the case.

We’re fine as long as Jimmy B doesn’t play Jimmy B at the five for a single minute

 

[two3zone]

Marek gone, barama gone. QG gone. AG gone. Woody gone.

Appreciate your info, thank you.
What do you think about Braswell?

 

[GoCuse14]

So...Cuserunner will finally make the nepotism phone call.

 

[two3zone]

Now you're just being silly.

Marek gone, barama gone. QG gone. AG gone. Woody gone.

Jimmy B transferring in.

Doesn’t seem too silly.

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Doesn’t seem too silly.

Yeah, sadly, it's not entirely implausible.
The other implication is that JB doesn't actually do anything to encourage any of the forwards to stay, which contrives a space for Jimmy. Good for Team Boeheim, bad for Team Orange.

Wild.

Upshot is we would have a lot more natural looking team and rotation, that I can also make sound like a really sweet boy band.

G - Buddy, Kadary, Joey G
F - Jimmy, Benny, Big Bad Bobby
C - Jesse, Frankie, Johnny

bulldog is saying 8 will return. You predicted 6.

It would be nice to hold onto one of those forwards. The Woody thing is nuts but to me that's on him.

 

[realorange]

Just saying he was a bit inconsistent

JB's presser was telling when he criticized Griffin several times, but particularly when he said that Q and Bobby may be our best forwards.

I just hope woody stays

 

[TheCusian]

I predict hand wringing and overreactions

 

[Bayside44]

I don't think that one is in the cards. Hope I am wrong but trust what I hear.

Using exact numbers sure, but the difference between a probable 8 and my silly 6 isn’t enough to call it “silly”.

 

[longtimefan]

Time will tell.

 

[Orangezoo]

What's the realm of possibility that only 6 return ? Honestly? ( I'm not at all knocking you twothree just talking through it)

Is it possible? Of course it is given we have two guys who could have fifth year decisions to make, two guys with going pro early on their mind, a developmental 4 who is a long ways a way and a developmental C who has had inconsistent minutes. Finally also an impatient yet talented frosh who disappeared almost completely after the second pause.

Losing that much would symbolize major problems and is not typically what you see with a team that should be going dancing after really being clearly dead in the water just a short number of weeks ago.

The reason I don't think it's that low is because we have not seen any attrition already. I think that both Alan and Woody are the shinier objects of concern and maybe rightfully so but you see Jesse still working hard, JBA and Frank on the bench going nuts and not lamenting the playing time situation regret. You see a team that is now just a couple pieces short of being top 15 if we don't lose too much.

So while it's possible I think realistically we return more than 6.

Joe, Buddy, Kadary, Braswell, Jesse, Frank for sure. JBA and one of Sid, Marek and Woody.

Q and Griff move on, with different legacies going with them.

You bring in Benny and then you add one or two more. I could see Jimmy and then I could see a late recruiting pickup.

 

[Orangefan1]

exactly! ty
my thoughts exactly

ge hasn’t really earned 30 plus this year he needs to become a better distributor and shooter first

 

[Orangezoo]

I don't think that one is in the cards. Hope I am wrong but trust what I hear.

It's a shame because I fear he will deal with the grass isn't greener issue if he moves on. Kid could have been one hell of a sixth man as a forward on what looks like it could be a really interesting talented team depending on how things shake out.
