Class of 2022 PG Dior Johnson (NY / CA)

[721Comstock]

Some of our best recruiting classes started with a player committing early and recruiting other players (Edelin, Flynn, Waiters, etc.). Dior, Chance/Zion, and Micawber would be an amazing class.

Micawber is a ‘21. But we'll take him too!

Donovan Clingan is the ‘22 C.
Who visited with Dior, Zion, and Mac.
Yes, please!

Haters? Where?
Let me at em.
Sup, crew!

It doesn't matter whether he ever makes it to the Dome or not, he already did more for us than any recruit since Melo...he lured Tee out of the witness protection program!

Every year there are several top ten kids that escape the clutches of duke, Kentucky, or Kansas. No reason we should not get one of those kids every few years. This has been long overdue.

PS - welcome aboard Dior, you will be a great one !!!!

So... I’m not much of a recruiting board guy. I’m guessing many of us only frequent the main board. Which I do every day...

Imagine my surprise that ESPN is reporting a 5 star commit to Syracuse and it isn't on the main board.

Dior scored 1000 points in high school by the 8th grade and could be a straight to NBA player and he's only a sophomore.

Plus there's this gem:

Andrew slater said watch for another good one. What are the chances someone else commits within the next couple of months?

247/?? has Chance Westry as a high probability lean to Syracuse.

There's a 26 page thread here:

Class of 2022 - PG Dior Johnson (NY / CA)

Surprised we don't have a thread on him yet. He is actually class of 2022. Admins: can you add that to the drop down. MADE Hoops‏ @madehoops 16h16 hours ago FINAL: City Rocks 67, NY Jayhawks 54 | Highly touted prospect Dior Johnson lived up to the hype, and dropped 29 points in his MADE...

So GMac will be the next HC. Sweet

 

[newmexicuse]

Dior is on track to have nba talent by the time he graduates HS. However, unless he has a growth spurt he will not have NBA size or strength by then. A year in college may well be exactly what he will need to adapt his game against bigger, stronger players. I am very optimistic for that reason that he will in fact play for the Cuse.

Somebody missed the point

Why do we need TWO different threads talking about the same player.

Why do we need TWO different threads talking about the same player.

This is very special, needs many many threads !!! I think we also need em on the football and lax boards !!!!

 

[Nicknack]

Let others (outside Syracuse) run with the narrative that he may never play in college, not us. He committed and plans to play here. Now let's just stock the cupboard and get the 'Cuse back to where it belongs. Enjoy it... life is too short to be cynical on things like this. I'm excited as hell.

When you start paying $10.95/month for a membership, you can start all the threads you want.

Why do we need TWO different threads talking about the same player.

Because someone wants us to change how things are done here to make it easier for them.

I've been paying $20.95. Why give them a deal?

Hey, I did not start any threads on him, just happy to see em wherever they turn up !!!

 

[tee1222]

Preparing my heart to be broken sometime between 2021 and 2022 sorry guys, I’ve been conditioned

 

[Cusefan0307]

Amazing how many of our fans are still pushing the NBA on multiple sites when multiple people have posted on all those sites that one and done rule isn’t going away anytime soon.

 

[pfister1]

Hey Dior Johnson people. Wait!...... This is the main board, feel free to allow this thread to meander off where ever you feel like taking it.

Dior Johnson; JB's pimp hat from '03; Buzz Williams sweating through his suit coat; Our need for a Big Man to join the coaching staff; we can even take it back to Leo paying Buddy's tuition to free up a scholarship.....


Have at it guys...this is the Wild and free MAIN BOARD.

 

[Niastri]

Because someone wants us to change how things are done here to make it easier for them.

Because not every fan wants to put the effort of reading 72 threads about players who will never come here to occasionally find out a couple times a year about the ones who will play for Syracuse.

Plus, about 15 of those pages are guys posting things like "yes!" in all caps without any additional information.

The main board could be held to a higher standard.

 

[Forza Azzurri]

Why do we need TWO different threads talking about the same player.

C'mon X, we need myriad threads on this for the same reason we need 32,689 threads on why we should play more man; why we should use our bench more; why player X, currently rooted to the bench, isn't playing more; how JB cannot coach offense; how JB cannot coach defense; how JB cannot coach; how we cannot recruit; how it is time...

'Cause dat what we do...

 

[cusefan88]

If Givony is right and one-and-done is pushed to 2023 then I think this guy def plays at Cuse.
