Class of 2022 PG Dior Johnson (NY / CA)

[GooseMutt]

What’s important is GMAC recruited Dior. Dior committed to Syracuse early. The rest of it is really none of our business as Dior is a minor.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

... I am one of the few Syracuse fans that was actually the first game in Springfield, Mass.

FIFY.

FIFY.

That actually got a laugh

My unfortunate iconic moment was being a senior watching Georgetown beat us at the very last game at Manley. Sigh

One of my old college roommates was also at that game. We were in command of that game, until we weren't.

the entire game. Gtown really should not have even bothered to come back out for the 2nd half.

As it turned out, I wish they hadn't.

Can you say "Sleepy Floyd"

Geneva College, Beaver Falls Pa.

Now, why would you bring that name up? I can still see him driving on our guards.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Boy, are you old!!!

Easy, I was there too.

 

[longtimefan]

Easy, I was there too.

So was I. And I'd been going to Manley games for 15+ years. Hence the "longtime" in fan.

First SU basketball game I ever attended was during Bing and JBs sophomore year. I do not remember much but my Dad said Bing was going to be a star. He did not know that JB would also become a star of a different type.

You beat me by a year.

Glad to read that quote. I do wonder what the real story is on why he left Oak Hill, though we'll probably never know. Anybody know if he's still tight with Zion? Just curious. Not expecting him to land here or anything.

 

[OHIORANGES]

Easy, I was there too.

Me too
I may look old.
I don’t feel old!

oak hill is really isolated, so i think that once he got injured and couldn't play basketball, the lack of things to do got him to reconsider the eastern move and go back with his mom.

but i'm not him, that's just a speculation.

The Isaiah Stewart thread is locked. I found this clip on being recruited to AAU teams, etc interesting. All the top players like Dior have to deal with this.
