Class of 2018 SF Cole Swider (RI) Transferring from Villanova to Syracuse

[jdubs30]

His offensive rating was 123 in 18mpg. If he plays average defense that is good enough. He can be a good 6th man at worst.

I really think him and Benny would start together. We wouldn’t have much dribbling but 6’8/6’9/6’11 along the back line

If Swider comes here and Benny is a stud our offense is top 10 in the country. Even better if Q or Woody come back.

Still have major PG issues. Now if Kadary were running the show...

Why in the world would you take a 29% shooter from 3 over a 35% shooter when neither one a whole lot else?

Because Jimmy has more moves down low. We have enough guys that will chuck 3s. Thats why. Hes also slow footed and add him with Jimmy and thats 2 that aren't the greatest athletes that we are hoping their deficiencies are hidden by our zone. Not a great recipe for success. Give me one or the other and bring in someone else...not both

Id prefer developing Woody for hopefully multiple years

Jimmy isn't doing anything down low in the ACC.

He played us didn't he? Was it all 3s? Are we a ACC school?

 

[Orangefan1]

I like Cole I think he would be a terrific fit for us

We’re weak down low. I don’t even want Jimmy on this team. We don’t need anymore slow,unathletic players. Cole is better.

I thought you were a Kadary fan now? What’s this “we” bs?

Yeah he looked like a superstar vs us 1 day playing against a zone hes known since he was born.

I am for life. You must be slow.

We don't need anymore slow guys...but let's bring in Cole.

He’s the better option when you’re limited.

 

[Cusesky8214]

He’s the better option when you’re limited.

I disagree. But it doesn't really matter...gotta see what happens with our current guys and go from there. Probably going to need bodies regardless so if it makes sense then bring him in.

 

[UpstateSM]

I’ll give you gas money.

I’m going to delete my posts because the mods are anyways in the next five minutes

So looks like this one might happen. Hop in there as well.

It's a Mott the Hoople song...
All the white dudes
Come to the 'Cuse
All the white dudes

My thoughts exactly!!

All white dudes who play zero D.

 

[Trueblue25]

Let it be known

All roads lead back to Cuse

Cole was rated the 38th best player in the class of 2018. It could well be that his issues with defense will be reduced playing in the 2-3 zone.

Is this heaven?

I like our chances considering that list
