[Trueblue25]

What's the likelihood of Battle being an early commit?

Saw this kid at the Nike TOC tournament in Brooklyn - he's a flat-out stud.

Jerry Meyer thinks so: whatever that's worth!

Does Syracuse get a commitment from 2016 5-star Tyus Battle this weekend on his visit? #Crystalball 100% Syracuse http://bit.ly/19XXXVl

That would be awesome, but I can't see him committing as a sophmore halfway through his season. Hopefully he does though, and stays liked in the whole time.

Throw in a Franklin Howard for a nice three pack... that and beating Duke would make about as good a weekend as I could have in the regular season.

OMG you guys ruined the thread What!!!!

Actually I thought that was very funny but the fact that I followed it easily has me worried about my sanity.

I think I could handle that type of blockbuster weekend--a victory over Duke to keep our undefeated streak alive, capped by a commitment from Tyus Battle.

Talk about big time!

Let's Go Orange!!!

According to his father he has visits scheduled with Ohio St and Michigan so it's unlikely he commits now. But IMO Diagne is a real possibility.

Agreed on Battle. His dad seems very methodical. Don't see him commiting until going through the process. Have to like the chances at this point though.

 

[orangefan13]

Want Diagne more then battle right now only because we need a big, and hes the best option nothing else is even close. Although would love a commitment from battle right now hes so smooth, we could have the smoothest backcourt in the country if joseph is still around in 016 as a jr(wishfull thinking) plus malachi and Patterson as well.

I disagree, I think Battle is more of a must get than Diagne. We will need a PG for 2016 and Battle is the best. In regards to Diagne, if we don't get him there is Bryant, Diallo, Silva and even Bragg that we could go after. It is not everyday that we can get a 6'6" guard with his ball handling skills and might grow even taller. The good news is that I believe we will get both. No insider information but just have that feeling that they will both be orange.

The single most important player on any successful team is the point guard

ESPN, always late to the party (either that or getting their info from Jerry).

Looks like Xavier has more of a chance than us.
Not even on the list, lol.

Tell that to the Heat, MJ's Bulls and Kobe's Lakers or tge 2003 Orange.

I appreciate your point about MJ and Kobe, but tell that to this guy.

Whether a true point guard or not, he played the point for us. And created....deja vu.
