As if I didn't need to be more depressed after a loss to Pitt.

Chris Smith recently said he either committed or was going to commit prior to choosing UConn.

He was a good player. I didn’t know he had interest in Syracuse. We all know how we should have landed Kenny Anderson, but dare I say, should we have had Chris Smith, we would have won the National Championship in 1990.

Donyell Marshall? Wasn't he a verbal until we went on probation #1 and Calhoun stole him by convincing him if he went to SU he would never play in an NCAA tournament?

There’s always the SU is my dream school guys. Doron Lamb comes to mind. Jordan Tucker, as well. Maybe Briscoe too? I know Isaiah Washington who ended up at Minny/Iona, always wanted the cuse offer. Sounds crazy, but could have used the NYC toughness. Things could have played out differently for the kid given an opportunity from us.

Guess throw Quade in there, must be on Plan D now.

JB doesn’t like to recruit physical, tough kids. He likes cerebral offensive players.

Winfred Walton? Dayshawn Wright? Mike Jones? Ish…

What was DC if not a physical, tough kid?

Maybe being local had something to do with it, to some degree. Like Dayshawn Wright.

Meant the original DC, who was very physical and tough.

Winfred Walton? Dayshawn Wright? Mike Jones? Ish…

Walton and Wright didn’t decommit. Walton didn’t qualify and Wright played a season.

 

[OrangeDW]

Walton and Wright didn’t decommit. Walton didn’t qualify and Wright played a season.

Mike Jones also didn’t. He played a few weeks here.

Nerlens Noel? Or was SU just a finalist?
