Class of 2022 PG Judah Mintz (DC / Oak Hill) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

[dasher]

People probably think the same when they go to our 24/7 board. It's a sad place. Not saying they have another good one somewhere but I think 24/7 are generally the big ones and ours there is a desert for the most part.

LOL I thought you were put in your place earlier today?????????

This caption says it all. He never overthought it once. Those around him wanted him to. Glad HE made the choice

love this. finally good news. if we had to lose frank, this is a hell of a trade in our favor.

I remember some thought It might be a mistake having Benny be Judahs host. May have been a great move.

 

[orange79]

Is it just me, or does he remind anyone else a bit of Kenny Smith (UNC)? Scorer, good passer/unselfish, passable rebounder.

I think that is pretty clear at this point.

Mintz please. Kenny Smith talk is on the NHL network thread

Enjoyed Judah's comment about JB: He's not just some old guy.

for a SU guard I was thinking Jason Hart. Hard nosed

This better get JG3 off the ball for the majority of every game.

25-30 mpg for Mintz PG
10-15 mpg Symir
JG3 for 30ish at SG, Mintz for the rest or Taylor spot minutes up top.
Taylor will have to play , but with Swider iffy, that is a necessity.

If JB actually plays the players to their strengths, this could be a tourney team next year. I think D and rebounding will still be a major problem, but we should get far more athletic.

Might not be a major problem. I imagine that Benny and Mintz will be big upgrades on defense over Jimmy and Buddy.

 

[two3zone]

He’ll get around to it next week, rabid fan that he is.

Fify

 

[Orangefan1]

You know I am always surprised by how things happen on this board. I feel like I’ve been duped but actually in a good way

 

[JustPherU]

Mintz is a minx. He scores. He sly

He walks he talks he dribbles on his belly like a reptile!

 

[SUFaninNJ]

Just imagine that if this thread was locked, as some wanted, we would have missed out on all of this fun!

With Symir and Mintz, baring injury Joe should never be the primary ball handler. I have no problem with him bringing up the ball with one of the two on the court with him, but we have the horses to keep Joe at the position where he can be successful.

Great call on this Dash. Always love hearing from those with connections...even if sometimes the news isn't great.

In this case, its awesome and we have the makings of a pretty good guard rotation and team next year.

Now its time to wait on Cole! He would be a huge piece of the puzzle and really benefit from penetrating guards.

Cuse!

I believe Joe also wants this. He’d never say it publicly though.

Joe off the ball ready to score, while helping as a secondary ball handler is so ideal. Can’t wait. Will make him/us so much more dangerous.

Yep. And Joe as a 2G is capable of finding the open man naturally vs having to as a PG. He could still average a few assists a game.

He is going to kill it with Sy/Judah getting him good looks. Cole too.

Two guys who can handle the ball and pass is a must. We can’t be getting eaten up by presses.

Buddy was a great player, but you need a SF who can handle like a guard(Hughes) to offset the lack of ball handling he brings.

Hoping our roster pieces will compliment each other a lot better next year.

 

[Bulldog04]

Calling it now. Joe has huge year next year at the 2. And we can thank Judah for it because of his play making ability
