We recruit nothing but long guards who cannot beat their guys off the dribble and can't shoot. It's boring basketball to watch and not particularly effective
They’ve had some postseason success largely by being difficult to prepare for but it’s been ugly basketball to watch for since the Dion team. The zone does not breed up tempo or exciting offense.
You mean you want guys like barely 6' Jose Alvarado who was ranked 131st and chose Georgia Tech over Rutgers and Seton Hall and torched Cuse yesterday for 19 points on near perfect shooting but only had two assists vs 4 turnovers.We recruit nothing but long guards who cannot beat their guys off the dribble and can't shoot.

Interesting listening to Dakich talk about GT's zone and how they switched from man to man and are now better for it. I guess, that's what lessor teams have to do to stand a chance, that includes us.
No. I want to tge emphasis to be on good basketball players that can shoot rather than the emphasis being on long athletes that we try to make into basketball players.You mean you want guys like barely 6' Jose Alvarado who was ranked 131st and chose Georgia Tech over Rutgers and Seton Hall and torched Cuse yesterday for 19 points on near perfect shooting but only had two assists vs 4 turnovers.
It's not like SU gets tall, long kids who are low ranked ball players. Yes they may not be top 25, but are still 4 and 3 * players. Heck MD has pretty good bball smarts, he's just skinnyNo. I want to tge emphasis to be on good basketball players that can shoot rather than the emphasis being on long athletes that we try to make into basketball players.
