Class of 2020 Patrick Tapé / Columbia Grad Transfer

[DilemaCuse]

Who was it from

I think it was Matt Gutierez

Who was it from

Matthew Gutierrez (@MatthewGut21) on Twitter

If we don't get Tape we have to switch to another grad transfer. I like our young guys but am not willing to go all in on them. And Sid is what he is. By the way, one tweet doesn't convince me we are out.

Why was it deleted? Because it wasn’t true lol

At what point does JB go full Nick Nolte from BlueChips and calls up Happy aka Adam Weitsman and say just get it done

I don't think putting the MD coach in a car crusher is an appropriate response, but I could be wrong.

Well, I think it is a start

We need a big. Going into next year with our current group is not prudent

I would say that’s accurate..

 

[cuseguy]

Time to hit the panic button

Maryland is starting to annoy me in winning recruiting battles over JB

Figured it would be Maryland.

 

[cuseguy]

Towns is more important. I think we can piece together the 5 with Sidibe/Edwards/JBA

I’m not at peace with that.

I don't remember in the movie what you are describing?

 

[Gabjon]

I like Towns but at forward we have Dolezaj, Guerrier, Braswell, and Newton, that is better than what we are bringing back at center Sidibe, Edwards, and JBA...

Tape allows us the RS Edwards who need to gain 30-40lbs to play meaningful minutes in the ACC. I don't believe this can happen in one summer.

Lol what. Marek plays center and is shorter with shorter arms.

He is the back-up at center because Edwards is not ready...

If Edwards was close he would be playing maybe 20lbs would do it, but 20lbs on a 7'-0" is not the same as 20lbs on a 6'-2" guy...

 

[Orangezoo]

Maryland was my biggest concern I noted a couple weeks ago too. With Smith likely headed pro, Tape can slot right in starting immediately with minimal competition.

 

[RF2044]

Discouraging if true.

I guess I just disagree with the statement that Edwards needs to gain 40lbs to play...

 

[HOFCeluck]

If Tape thinks that the best way to further his career is to play for Mark Turgeon then...maybe it’s for the best.

 

[UpstateSM]

Maybe he knows Eli is gone and has some knowledge that Towns isn’t coming here and doesn’t want to be on a possibly irrelevant team. The most pessimistic view

 

[kcsu]

Maybe JB needs to close a recruit that isnt within walking distance.

Everywhere is walking distance...
... if you have enough time.

Yeah, LA is just down the block from Syracuse.

Like Dior in California?

If he knows all that, then I want help from him on what my opponent has in poker. No one can know all of that. Because he played in the Ivy against Towns they are suddenly friends? Or he knows that Eli is going pro? What other things can he possible know?

Admit it, you forgot about Dior. The opportunity to take a shot was just too much to bother with facts.

His takes on Boeheim change like the wind, depending on if we’re winning or losing. A couple weeks ago he was praising him. Now he’s trashing him again.
