Class of 2019 PF Isaiah Stewart (NY/LaLumiereIN) to Washington

[Cusefan0307]

I wish Capel would get involved and offer here just to piss off his old boss.

 

[supgs]

Come home Isaiah. Remember the most recent NYS big man, who spurned KY, and matriculated to SU? He had an injury plagued career, but JAB stuck with him thru thick & thin... would that have been the case at Kentucky?

The timing of this visit is intriguing... the weekend of Girard's announcement! Could SU score both this weekend? Ok, a guy can dream, right?

I'm pumped we are getting one! Maybe jg3 has more to do with it then we all thought? It does seem a bit strange that it was such a quick one and out of the blue. He didnt release when he was visiting and so on. Feels like he had to come home to Rochester and because he was here hes giving us a courtesy visit and making the drive to cuse to see us (if he is that's fine as long as we have a chance to give him our best pitch) but like some have said, maybe he really is interested in teaming up with jg3? Regardless I'm happy our staff has a fighting chance and can tell him to stay local and be a legend!

Maybe it seemed weird to Zay that academics weren't even remotely associated with UK's "college" program.

Lol at those ending sentences. “You earn everything”...except for when you share minutes with someone you’re clearly better than because...promises that “you’re going to share” are just his way of framing his playing time promises differently.

Remember when Towns played 21 minutes per game, and Demarcus Cousins played 23 minutes per game? Sitting for half the game for inferior players isn’t what “competitors” do. Don’t go there.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Have to imagine Buddy is close with him too as they were the 2 best players on the City Rocks in 2017.

I think the actual quote' was, "You'll earn every bag of cash our boosters drop".

Say what you want about Gmac, but he’s got us involved with a bunch of elite guys we have had a hard time just getting on campus the past couple years.

That is what is happening. He’s home on fall break so killing two birds with one stone. Doesn’t mean it’s a courtesy visit...with all his other options I don’t think he’d burn up a visit for that reason. However, we are still longshots in this one from what I’ve been told.

I would love to see Gmac land the big fish. It would probably boost his confidence and get a lot of his critics to lighten up.

He gets ‘em to the doorstep. But it’s up to JB and what the program offers to close.

 

[reedny]

We still may not get Zay, but I have to say .. it's SUPER exciting to have him on campus, especially with everyone back and the guys practicing. Let's hope it feels like home.

 

[normaliswear]

As a McQuaid alum I had just finally accepted this wasn't happening. Come on Isaiah, ya can't hurt a fellow Knight twice.

And if you've ever met GMAC, we couldn't possibly have a more honest, sincere and knowledgeable rep for SU.

I have a few times. And after Hop, he might be the most intense SU guy I’ve met and he’s very well spoken.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Agreed and since he and I are about the same age I feel the need to go to bat for him as a lot of people have said he hasn’t earned his position and I’ve heard the same type of chatter in my professional life.

Now it’s up to JB to close on these guys.

Don't ever fail?

Ok so he's been positive he was going to UK for a long time... so all he needed his other visits for was to get free trips around the country. But then he visits UK and he hates it... so he decides to visit what had been his 2nd choice and now 1st choice? Yeah I'm trying to spin it anyway I can. Lol

Really dont want the steak knives here

If he doesnt end up at cuse then I want him playing for hop. Screw duke/uk/msu/nova

 

[FrancoPizza]

Would be great to see him land in Washington. I’d really love for Hop to become a national power.

Only if he comes back to SU
