Now that GMac is HC, what does next year's squad look like?

[rrlbees]

You’re kidding right?

of course. im trying to make happy those who think thats what we might do.

 

[rrlbees]

You know that?

no

You had me nervous

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

Point guard, center and a shooter are big portal needs IMO. I really hope they pay up to get a point guard.

Careful you might get quoted in a barstool Cuse tweet…

Come on, quit messing with everyone. On a serious note, I have this bridge that I love, but I have to sell it. Anyone interested?

 

[sweetpea]

gerrys plan is to keep about 4-5 su players and add 4 siena players and let it rip with that 8-9 man rotation.

That's a freakin disaster if true.

some of you are just really dense

You're on a roll. No one will revisit these posts anyway.

People love coming after me after the fact. But it's the few times I'm wrong and not the many times I'm right...

We're going to have to hide this kid defensively and I don't think he brings enough to the table for us to bring him in.

Devendorf showing up to player meetings tomorrow looking for a starting spot in the backcourt.

Until otherwise proven I’m gonna go with Gerry’s skill assessment of the players he brings in along with the GM he chooses over yours. Otherwise why the hell haven’t you put in for the GM job if you seem to know something a new coach who hasn’t even finished his staff out doesn’t?

Look around - there are a ton of much higher rated kids who have disappointed while you have lower rated freshman around smaller leagues having strong years and portaling right after.

Not picking a fight or coming after you but think you have the cart before the horse here with some of these takes.

You have no idea of the development arc of the three redshirt. I guess you think George won't bounce back. A lot of people will agree with that. I think he has and will play better

What do mean bounce back? He played at SU just like he played at GaTech. He is who he is unless the next coaching staff has skills

The water issues are real though. It’s actually why I advocated buying land anywhere near the Great Lakes a decade ago.

The rust belt states need to heavily monetize water access and more companies need to
Invest in places with access to fresh water Vs the southwest.

Treaties prevent Great Lake’s water from being transported for use outside the drainage basin of each lake

I can't believe those scenarios are even being discussed here. Think bigger people!

I think you start off with;

Anthony
Sadiq
Kingz (if he gets an extra year)
Doty
Folefac
Moesch

Then I think we add one more high school player. Someone that is probably going to get released from their letter on intent for one reason or another. Then I think the rest will be transfers. Gerry’s teams were very fundamentally sound at Siena. I expect the same here where he’ll target kids with high basketball IQ. Who are fundamentally sound players with good athleticism. If we get those 6, obviously we need a good lead guard and we need a good center. Lots of holes to fill with the portal. Luckily in this era of college sports we can be a tourney team next year if we spend the money. We’ll see how much money we put up

Nice bench. Would need to portal at least 4 starters, and you better getting some shooting and some beef.

I don't know how many follow the players on Instagram but a small example would be Betsey is in Cuse working out at Melo and Donnie is in Miami having expensive steak dinners.

Maybe means nothing but I found the divergence interesting.

Sounds about right, and I am confident neither one is working on their defense

 

[ar inj]

I hope that we can keep at least 4 quality players from this past season ( 4 of Kiyan, White, Betsy, Kings, Freeman). I’m good with 3 guys from Siena, as long as they are not starters or the first 2 guys off the bench. To compete in the ACC, we will need at least 2 bench players from the portal who are better than the Siena guys.

What? Who are your starters on that team?

After doing some research, I'm more convinced that we can keep Betsey, which would be a good thing for us. G-Mac was his primary recruiter in HS. Given that and the fact that Betsey probably wouldn't cost a whole lot next season, I find it hard to believe he would let a 6'8" forward who shot over 40% from 3 last season walk out the door.

Betsey should pay SU to stay or move along. He plays zero defense.

 

[baggerbob]

He's got legit 3 point range.

And he showed range in international players, and being from Australia is fundamentally sound. Look at the women who have played for the women's team. Red had made up his mind before the season started that George and JJ were his starters.
And it was sink or swim, and we know what happened.
