Oh, don't worry. She already thinks you're a raging hypocrite. This would change nothing.My only concern is that I'm going to sound like a raging hypocrite to my GF after I spent a yr cursing his name and giving the tv double birds every time the little rat bastard stepped on the court. Maybe I can convince her its a different Quade Green that i miraculously love now
I ask this again - why is Goodine our plan A at PG his first season here? We'll either have HW or Jalen Carey here still too. I didn't foresee him leapfrogging either one of them his freshman year, so why should we worry if QG leapfrogs him as plan A that year? I just don't understand why we would promise a high 3 star/low 4 star guy starter minutes his freshman year. So why would he be upset and decommit over this? Just doesn't make sense to me.
Maybe our coaching staff thinks Goodine is (a lot) better than "a high 3 star/low 4 star guy".
I still don't get why they can't play together
I think everyone is just saying make sure goodine is good with it before we do it. As he is more important to us.
Let's see what shakes out. I'm not losing sleep over him. He dissed us, and it'll take a while to wash off the UK stink. But I watched clips of him and he can play. The questions for me are: First, will we have roster space, with 4 or 5 guards already committed or returning ... Carey (?) Buddy, Hughes, HW and Goodine? Second, can he do what WE need him to do, which is play point? In that role, offensively I wonder if he can repeat his 37% performance (which is really good) on a team that doesn't have a bunch of 5-stars to space the floor, and is he athletic enough to get to the rim (and finish) any better than Carey (if he stays), Goodine or our existing (taller) 4-star guys? Third, defensively does he have the size and quickness to pinch the middle and close out on shooters and bother them? Fourth, does he have the "team-first" attitude that he would need at SU, playing up top mostly or even coming off the bench? And fifth, can he make other people around him better (<3 assists in 25 mpg)? Those are legitimate questions based on his role at UK, which was limited to catch-and-shoot 2G. So it's not just the bad odor of UK and how he treated us. It's whether he's worth the turbulence adding him would cause to the roster. But I'll try to keep an open mind and see what happens. No doubt he's a good player.
Maybe Buddy will get Boeheimed?
40 minutes of zone baby zone......
Akok, Ajak, why not both. You know how Boeheim do. Tall, skinny, jumps out to block corner 3s knowing he won't get there in time but at least has succeeded in abandoning perfect defensive rebounding position so that pesky 6'5" white SF on the other team can get another garbage stick back.
Did they hire Will Hicks?
Sour grapes fellas. Had we not put all our eggs in one basket we’d have signed someone like jelly dimes, told Q sorry too late, and this wouldn’t be awkward at all.
