Class of 2020 Patrick Tapé / Columbia Grad Transfer

[sufandu]

I know Carey has been a bit polarizing around here, but I'm not sure why he's ranked so highly on that list, other than being a Top-50 recruit out of HS. Other than the UConn game, unfortunately, I don't think he ever really provided much of anything on the court other than turnovers. Echoes of Kaleb.

I'm guessing they're basing alot on high school rankings for guys that they didn't see play much.

He has great athleticism, and if he could get himself to slow down just a bit on offense, I could see him being a very good player for somebody. He just couldn't get it together with us, but I could definitely see him playing for a Big East team.

What are the chances of us getting tape?

 

[cusefan88]

What are the chances of us getting tape?

Extremely low

 

[jdubs30]

What are the chances of us getting tape?

Close to 0% since we didn’t get Towns

 

[Dcuse]

What are the chances of us getting tape?

He’s ours.

 

[littlereg]

I’d bet money on us landing Tape.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

I’d bet money on us landing Tape.

Are you saying that we can "stick" the landing with Tape?

 

[W'boro'Cuse315]

I’d bet money on us landing Tape.

Can we Tapé this to the bank?

 

[Cuse1055]

Did something happen recently that is making us confident?

 

[JLine]

He’s ours.

Hmm, interesting. That would be a pleasant surprise. Even better now that Duke has come sniffing around, per the usual. That rat bastard just respects Jimmy so much that he’s willing to screw him over for kids we have been on much longer. I can’t wait until he retires, and GMac/Autry are bringing in kids that would normally go to Dook.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Did something happen recently that is making us confident?

COVID-19.

I believe the only school he's visited is Syracuse.

 

[Orangefan1]

Come on Tape!!!!

 

[Alsacs]

Tape means no Marek at the 5.
Which would allow him to play a little smarter.

We still would have a major hole at the 3 if Hughes left.

Girard-35

Marek- 35
Tape/Sidibe-40

Richmond-5

Guerrier

 

[Alsacs]

Guerrier

He slides into the 3.
With how great Buddy is at shooting it shouldn’t matter that Dolezaj and Guerrier aren’t going to stretch the floor.

Thank goodness Buddy is the best shooter in the nation.
Our offense will be just fine.

 

[Cuse1055]

Braswell being healthy could be a game changer because of his shooting as well.

Whose minutes is Braswell eating into next year Guerrier or Dolezaj?

I think Marek is going to prove to be a serviceable shooter. The dude is a basketball chameleon. He understands what the team needs and then he fills the need. Guerrier, hopefully, can become at least a threat from deep. When Richmond comes in to the game, presumably for Buddy or Joe, we may have some shooting issues. But maybe the defense can offset the loss of a shooter. Either way, it will be fun watching this team evolve. And, we may not be done adding players.

If he is playing well, he will get minutes. Even if he doesn’t play well, he might get minutes. Those two are both foul prone.

 

[CuseMan4]

Looking good here. I think we are going to end up with this kid and we are going to end up with one more “high school” recruit.

 

[jdubs30]

Sidibe was on fire to end the year. Tape wants to start. What happens eith JBA and Edwards?

 

[jdubs30]

Looking good here. I think we are going to end up with this kid and we are going to end up with one more “high school” recruit.

Gotta be a guard
