Class of 2020 Patrick Tapé / Columbia Grad Transfer

[pfister1]

I would be surprised if any of the visitors for Duke game end up at SU. The 2022 guys don’t even know who their coach might be. Dior will never step on a college court.

If we were smart we’d make them commit before giving them the game ticket.

Did Red and Griffin play zone or man over the summer?

Wonder if Tape wants to play the zone because there is no doubt that he would fit well in our offense.

He has 1 year left and isn’t going to the NBA...I can’t imagine why playing the zone would bother him

I doubt he thinks he won‘t make it to the NBA.

LOL! Zone is harder than man...some people hate it....some people love it

But it will be a factor

We never win those. sigh.

Uncle Drew says hi!
Dude didn't decide on Cuse until like 2 days before classes started that Fall.

Even John Gillon wasn't until I think May that year.

This young man wants to enjoy the recruiting experience and weigh his options.
Let's let him!
Even if he takes until March sometime to decide, it's not like it's a rush.

At the end of the day, Red & Griff (& Jalen Carey) know him quite well from the East Coast team last summer.
And now he knows how kickass the atmosphere in the Loud House can be for a big game.

It’s a great atmosphere, but not much of a home court advantage. We already have 5 home court losses.

It would not be smart for him to commit to any school until after players declare for the draft.

After the spring signing period.

He should wait until after the withdrawal deadline.

As a post grad he as the luxury of holding his cards to the end...and he should

We haven't won a battle like this in awhile.
Andrew White, perhaps?

[cuseguy]

I guess he isn't coming here unless there is an article out there saying how much he liked it here. The longer this takes the more I think he isn't coming here.

He’s an Ivy League student. He’ll make all his visits before deciding. But we rarely fare well In these type of decisions.

 

[721Comstock]

Yeah, we never get Grad xfers who take all their visits.

And grad program could come into play

I'm confidant that whatever school he wants to go to, will have a major that will fit the bill. Remember, IVY rules stop him from playing a 5th year.

God forbid an Ivy kid perform his due diligence.

I was thinking he might take it more serious than the average Joe and actually want to do something with his post graduate degree so the academic program might carry more weight than normal.

His Columbia basketball bio says he's an Urban Studies major, so let's hope that the Maxwell School appeals to him.

He is from North Carolina and we are the only ACC team on his visit list.

Lots of games in NC for family and friends to watch him play

We play all 4 North Carolina schools at their place next season (plus UNC and NCSt in the Dome).

For what its worth...

Terps reportedly interested in grad transfer big man

With two sudden holes in the frontcourt, Maryland reached out to a potential solution.

Red and Griff need to close this one early (today would be great)...

Not sure about Jalen although he has been a great teammate on the pine since his surgery.

Red and Griff look like a blast at a party. Tell me they wouldn't be able to connect with these kids? Look at em...some cool guys man.
