Class of 2022 PG Dior Johnson (NY / CA)

[tee1222]

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!

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

when you have a nice johnson it's only natural to want to show it off

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.

Leo is only paying Buddy's tuition so that JB will let him be his successor.

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

even if it changes, good chance he wants to play for a year ... all these mentors to young players (Lebron, melo, dwade) all talk about college and lebron wishing he played one year to experience it.

tee's back! Can this thread get any better????

HaHa!!! My like count is already climbing with Tee being back. We missed you brother.

I’m guessing bronny to Duke

Smaller players need college the most Steph Curry never gets a shot if he doesn’t play 4 years. I think Anthony on UNC is only gonna be a good pro if he hangs around for 2 more years in which case he might become a star.

But if he’s a lock to go top 5 that’s that. And given the luck we seem to have I kind of expect that to happen tbh.

Still cool he committed early. Going back over the years always seemed like our bigger recruits were locked up a couple years in advance.

Is he that level?

 

[jdubs30]

Is he that level?

Yes

This thread is already way better than that 26 page thread! Also, very cool to see us grab someone of that ilk, just watching his highlight reels is about a year's worth of entertainment for me. I do miss some of the supplementary aspects of grabbing a really high rated recruits.

Btw, just for when this gets merged with the recruiting thread - I was just kidding on this thread being better than the 26 page thread - this thread right here (on the recruiting board) is amazing! The first 26 pages were gold, pure gold!!

Curry left after his Junior year and no way Anthony hangs around after this year.

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.

There's a grower/shower joke about our program in here somewhere.

 

[GooseMutt]

This has to be the biggest recruit win since Melo especially with the caveat of bringing talent with him
Delete all other threads immediately

keep in mind though that each thread on the recruiting board has the players name in the title and when they commit, it’s added to the title. You don’t need to read 72 threads to see Johnson committed.

I learned about him from following Etan Thomas.

The thing everyone has to realize is that this one and done talk will be applied to all top 20 recruits at all schools it is not just dior, part of the narrative going forward.

I also have been able to double-like posts from way back when. You can't see me, but it's there!

Class of 2019 - C Kofi Cockburn (NY/Oak Hill) to Illinois

6' 11" Center playing ball in New York City. I don't see him on our radar yet. Coach Hopkins, go get this one. Great size for the zone. He's in our backyard in NYC via Jamaica. Like all big men, still raw but sounds athletic. When SU is playing ball in NYC hopefully this kid can come watch...

Hey, Pearl!

I will bet the farm that this is posted somewhere within this thread, but aside from his ridiculous will to get to the rim and finish, what an impressive passer.
