Class of 2022 PG Dior Johnson (NY / CA) Decommitted from Syracuse

[hoopsupstate]

Better we know this now instead a year from now. This is why SU has been recruiting several other point guards. Will this give us a shot at Cruz?

Great player. Seems to practice hard.

Hot take (?): Once he moved in with Lebron, there was no way he was ever going to sniff college.

 

[CuseTG2003]

Really wonder if the coaches pressed Dior once they knew they lost Roddy..

This. The staff saw the writing on the wall and wanted to clear the way for a final, urgent run at Roddy. Really hope it's not too late, but we'll be fine regardless.

Cruz isnt happening

The timing isn't a coincidence. Full court press on Roddy.

 

[JeremyCuse]

This was the best for both parties, as others have noted, he is an incredible player with some personal things going on who was clearly never stepping foot on this or any other college campus. Wish him nothing but the best but he's never playing a second of college bball. Better for this to happen now.

 

[23Zone]

Figured that was going to happen with all the moving parts as of late

2020 sucks.

 

[Toga]

OMG No

The bridesmaid strikes again!

 

[JeremyCuse]

The bridesmaid strikes again!

There's no bridesmaid here, he's gonna play exactly 0 minutes of college bball.

 

[Orangefan1]

This just sucks

 

[Orangefan1]

Back to square one I’m really at a loss with football now this?

The Bridesmaid is GMAC's nickname as a recruiter.

We project to have a backcourt of a senior Girard and a Junior Richmond by that point. I’m sure we’ll be ok.

Ya I am not a huge Gmac fan or hater but his continued struggles are concerning to say the least.

But he did his job here?

Not his fault our school can’t pay better than the G League, like some of these other schools can.

Yes, certainly don't blame him at all for Dior. Coach K wouldn't have made a difference. Talking larger picture.

I really do think people are underrating Kadary. He was a top 80 kid

Big-time. I think folks underrate the current roster and talent significantly. Way too much worry over Dior. Hot take but Kadary is going to resemble a top 20 recruit far more than a top 100.
