Message: [QUOTE="Cuse 94, post: 2170651, member: 6355"] Bottom line, we (SU) should not allow kids to hold us hostage while they play games waiting for other offers , bright lights of social media and the power plays by the HS and AAU coaches, it's all a game and when everyone knows that we stand there waiting for them to say yes , more will do it If a kid is playing games, move on, there will always be another young man to put on the Jersey, I agree, we should have had Wash up to school and Green would have signed in a heartbeat and if not we would have gotten the better player anyway, Wash is the real deal. Luckily Minn not in ACC or on ESPN it's all about optics like dating a girl, are you going to stand at her door and tell her u love her and wait and wait and wait, while she's running around bc she know u are waiting! No , you grow a set of u know u know what and walk away. Ayala wasn't even a name for us 1 year ago, he's a a good player, but folks, he's not worth the chatter, he is no pro I promise you that. He's not worth all of the coverage we are giving him and guess what, he doesn't deserve to wear Orange, it's his loss, think about it, why would we want a kid to come here when he's basically telling us he's not good enough to play right away, that's what he's saying by adding an extra year IN SCHOOL, if he is so good why is he delaying his time in the NBA? Tucker 50/50, from what I hear, his father wants him to get the call from Duke, they are going to let the dust settle before jumping. Forget Ayala, his loss and whomever he is listening to does not have his best interests. It makes zero common sense. the staff has a plan, it's been chaotic for 3 years with the sanctions and the 3 years in advance with a Jeter tour for JB. Yes it hurt us, blame the School, Why they told the world he was retiring in 3 years was so dumb. JB is now back in the saddle and I think we are in for a very exciting run 18 19 and 20 maybe surprise us next year The chatter about the zone is nuts, we will have 3 more kids in the 1st round in 17 and 18, our track record is only getting better. If we had gotten Green or even better Wash or Coleman that wouldn't be mentioned Re future core, the freshman are much better than the threads say, Oshae is very good and has tons of upside, same for Bourama and Wash is going to be very solid , how would we be doing if Diallo was our key recruit? Forget the ESPN rankings, look at 2008 thru 2014, how many of the top 50 do u know? Frank will turn it around , Moyer should be good and tbd with Chu Battle is special , he will be ready to be the man, just as special is TT. He is going to be a monster for us. Might be the best offensive player in the country next year at his position (PF), not Pure stats, but just the best, he can score, his hands are great, he needs to bulk up get stronger and his stock will skyrocket on the draft boards. We will bring in a few more kids, I would rather get better talent in 18 than settle now, meaning don't give away the tickets , every scholorship counts, so if it's 5th year guys again so be it, there are a few good ones in play You watch 17 tbd, but lookout for 18 19 and 20 we are about to see the final chapter of JB's storied career, which 194 out of 200 schools would sign up for NOW, as he coaches the kids including his son Buddy and they win one together. Dasher keep it coming, u r the man In JB we trust! GO SU [/QUOTE]
