Class of 2022 PG JJ Starling (Baldwinsville / La Lumiere) Offered

[orangefog]

That’s a Ferrari spider 488 to be exact

I stand corrected, thank you. But, if that mfer is wearing a sweater vest in that car, he better kick his own ass.

JB better borrow one of Weitsman's fancy rides when he picks up JJ for his visit. Can we use Adam's private jet too? Maybe a helicopter? Lol

 

[Cuse Countr]

JJ would offset the loss of Lands, and give us a marquee player to anchor the rest of the solid class around.

Like your idea about rounding out the class with Carey, then hitting the portal in the spring / summer.

And if we can get year 2 out of Benny -- disco.

It would more than offset the loss lol

You're take on Lands is straight up rationalization lol

 

[SUOrangeSU]

You're take on Lands is straight up rationalization lol

Agreed. I don't think he's seen the right Lands games or something. That was a big loss and our best recruit this cycle

 

[Orangello]

Brey wouldn't know how to start a Ferrari 488. My money's on the school bus.

Seems like there's a segment of the board who've decided that Lands decommitment isn't that big of a deal, because he isn't that good of a player. Which is false, but probably a self-protection mechanism to stave off disappointment.

To be clear -- not saying he's Billy Owens / Carmelo, but I agree with your take. Kid is a bucket getter -- a very smooth scorer / shooter. Now, landing JJ would help alleviate that loss, because he's a phenomenal offensive player, as well. Hope we can land him.

ND basketball has zero panache. No zip. You don’t want to go there.

But, he could be the next Prentiss Hubb.

That’s a vette, right? Surprisingly affordable. It’s not like it’s a Lambo.

Yeah, no. That’s not a Vette.

 

[Nicknack]

I don't see JJ playing PG at Duke. He's not a distributor at all.

Yeah, I haven't seen anything that shows him as a PG. He is a classic 2 guard guy. That said, we had Marek playing center, so who knows.

 

[orangefog]

Yeah, no. That’s not a Vette.

Now that the vette is mid engine, I think they look similar.

A little. But the back of the spyder is more squat IMO. Also the yellow stallion on the door

If starting at around 100k and up is affordable?

 

[orangefog]

If starting at around 100k and up is affordable?

They start under $70k

 

[AlaskaSU]

They start under $70k

60 to 80K, a lot of car for the money, but for 100K get a Jag class or Lexus 500LC, etc.

Dash said it earlier but ND is a major player obv. Not sure about the allure of the program, but I’m sure like Stanford they are selling the other components that people “love” about ND. National brand, huge alumni association, blah blah. Cuse still in good shape but things are changing quite often with JJ

Gotta think if I’m him and I’m unsure, I’d wanna give the hometown thing a shot first and if it doesn’t work freshman year, use the portal.

Meh. I personally have found the combination of interior plus power plus nostalgia gets you way more for the money with Dodge. The SRT team in Brampton is elite.

I can't with some of you guys lmao

Or, go away, and if doesn’t work out, come home. Not sure if having been away already helps or hurts SU

If sorry-a$$ ND steals Starling from our backyard, fans will lose their minds. I get losing him to Duke, not ND.

If he goes to ND it’s because he wants a guaranteed 35mpg as the lead ball handler. That would be the main reason to go there.

You guys are thinking about this under ancient recruiting norms.

apples and oranges. Crude muscle cars compared to well appointed sophisticated sports cars; Jags, LC500, Porsche etc. Vettes are somewhere in the middle. The new ones have a Euro statement look. Very popular because it is a lot of car for the money.
