Class of 2017 SG/SF Jordan Tucker (NY / GA) Leaving Duke to Butler

[HOFCeluck]

How many scholarships does tech have available? They just got a commitment from a PF Moses wright.

I think they only have six guys on the roster with three coming in.

Yep they'd be able to offer similar to PT to us I believe. Okogie is more of a SG than he is a SF.

not this season he wasn't - T.Jackson is their 2-guard, I think Okogie pretty much has to play 3 - maybe those two are interchangeable tho, I dunno

I think they played 3 G a lot because of Heath. But maybe you're right and next year will be the same. Maybe they'll go Alvardo, Jackson and Okogie - I doubt Tucker would play the stretch 4 , not sure if he has the size for that in the ACC.

Tucker retweeted the pic of him in the jersey, so now it's the top post on his twitter (besdies the pinned tweet) - and he still has the *no commitment comment but now that comment is below the jersey pic.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN

That JB keeps convincing him and Gerry keeps screwing it right back up again.

 

[Day2]

Anyone else following this obsessively as they did for Quade? After a long night out last night I was just planning on a few beers and watching baseball tonight - but this thread has my complete attention

And Andrew White before him, and Taurean Thompson before him, and Tyus Battle before him...

This is gonna hurt a la Tobias Harris style after that picture. I hope he's not just messing with us. He can do what he thinks is best for him, obviously. Just wish it didn't seem so likely that he was coming to only be disappointed. I have no clue what happened with the visit saga before, so hopefully he's not bitter and rubbing it in.

Man, he would have the keys to the 3. I don't see why it isn't locked up. Playing time from the start with as much exposure as any school on TV. We pump out 1st round picks, and have JB. Yeah, it's cold, and snows but damn.

I wouldn't even be bitter. I'd truly feel sorry for him. There's not a better, available path to the NBA right now for him than the 3 at Syracuse University.

 

[newmexicuse]

We have had a very bad recruiting history against gt. We lost out on anderson, marbury, and forrest. I do not remember any big gets against them. We are overdue for a recruiting victory against them. Make it so j tuck !!!

 

[cuse10]

Lost out on Marbury and Anderson because we didn't cut the check.

 

[cuse10]

And tweeting recruits is weird. Don't do it.

Thanks for weighing in, Eeyore.

Chill out man. You are one of the most optimistic/Orange-goggled posters on the board. You are now worrying? Deep breaths. Syracuse should get him.

I'm not too worried. Whatever happens, happens. We will be alright, and I believe he becomes Orange. Just wish it happened already. Really like his game.

That said, I am always optimistic, appreciate you noticing, hah.

Regardless if he decides to join the family, or not.

I think it's just a matter of time, and maybe he takes a couple visits elsewhere. If they are free then why not? Travel, then come back to be a starter for the Cuse.

Weird day for me. Didn't mean to bring a bad vibe. We're alright.

 

[Cusefan0307]

We need Dave85 to make an appearance for good vibes! That guy has been MIA since the season is ended!

Just pulling your chain, bro. I mean all logic and common sense should point to Tucker in Orange. We REALLY need this dude to commit. The kid looks pretty jacked, too. I'll be interested to see, if he does commit, what the S&C program does with him. If they mess him up like Lydon then I'll be disappointed.

 

[Lucid]

He'll commit. He's just playing a little. Remember when you were 17?

Why? He grew up in NY. He knows what Cuse is all about. He WANTS to come here, you can see it.

 

[TheCusian]

You guys should be glad you're not that into football recruiting. We got every kid who plays HS in a 5 state radius trying on a Cuse uni and tweeting about it.

"Great visit! Loved it!" (Commits to Penn State)

It means you should get a life.

Dennis Scott as well.

Find yourself a sarcasm alert filter. You might find one on Craigslist.

A freshman giving up his # to a Grad student is not the same as a redshirt Freshman giving it up to a Freshman. MM has seniority!

Technically speaking when both players are incoming players at the same time how does one have a number to have to give up to the other??

 

[pfister1]

I don't recall any hoops players ever doing it. I don't recall any hoops players doing it before making a decision even.

Would be pretty goofy if he chooses Ga Tech and that pic show up every year before our matchup against them?

Ahh the real reason recruiting has his the skids against the big boys..... we're putting recruits in a Cuse uniform they're putting them behind the wheel of a 7 series.

The thing I don't get about him trying on the uniform is after being left at the altar by QG, why would we risk having egg on our face again? We have to be very confident. If he goes elsewhere, the uniform photo op will be really embarrassing.
