I tried to say it but some people refused to believe it
You don’t need to guard him. That’s a problem. We just had a point guard who couldn’t shoot. It’s depressing to watch Georgetown get involved with the best players in the portal and they’ve been horrible fir years.
what league do you consider this kid in? honest question. I think he's being over valued. Desperation is driving his price up.
The good part is we are not doomed. Part of being a HC in the NIL era is going out into the community and raising funds yourself. Relationships with donors is extremely important. I think this has to be prioritized more next year.
He's not a scoring Point though. He led the conference in assists. He can knock down the 3 a little bit. Better then Judah atleast. Look i'm not sold on Carlos but we need another guard. He doesn't move the needle but he'd be nice for depth.
And, he got immediate results. We got Kyle McCord and Fadil Diggs. Those are HUGE names. No offense to any of the guys we've gotten from the portal in basketball, but they aren't names that excite the casual fans.
We aren’t looking for depth, we need a number one point guard. At this point we have neither.
I’d like to get an annual statement from the collective to see where the money is being dispersed. If they want people to give, we should know who and where the money is going. I don’t need individual player amounts, but how much is going to teams within the university.
Hofstra basically had no front court presence. They were awful at rebounding. They also only played 6 players. No depth and no rebounding.
This is going to turn off a lot of fans going forward, especially considering all the recruiting scores happening with Syracuse football. I hope JB is working the phones with all his former players (especially the former NBA and pro guys) and urging them to give to the collectives and pushing NIL donations with businesses around town and urging Weitsman to get off his high horse about the chancellor.
He is in the league that we are not recruiting anyone near as good as him. That league.
It’ll be a year too late though. Red has to make real progress in the next two years, and I think he can do it if he has some talent. But he needs a good NIL war chest.
Everything in your first sentence is a joke. Bill Lange is not going to get fired at this point and the NBA knows everyone so him coming to Syracuse would not make him more attractive to them. Also don't under estimate the loyalty and retired number factors. Oh by the way SJ's can competes with us on NIL.
Maybe even a cake sale or better still a Let’s put on a musical/talent show and invite all the sports players to participate and make money by charging admission and use the proceeds to bring new players in. Andy Hardy would love this approach.
I've watched my share of basketball and played. What I've seen of Leffew is decent but he isn't a sure bet by any means. Is he the best out there?
