I'm going to say how much I hate what college basketball has become.  A team like Syracuse is really screwed if they don't sign a kid early.  And great kids aren't signing early for the most part.  And the great ones are holding out until the very end.  Even though we have a great track record, we are definitely becoming second class citizens in this new game of college basketball.

Tucker isn't lucky.  I want to say instead that he is smart.  But reality is, if he wants to go to Duke or Kentucky and play limited minutes instead of playing 35 at the Cuse, more power to him.  Where we lose is that we get one of these kids a year, and JAB always says that he's never ready for the NBA.  Calipari gets six of these kids a year and tells the NBA how great they are.  Reason being is that he knows he will get six more kids.  JAB has an inferiority complex on when he will sign the next one.  And he is right to feel insecure.

I'm not blaming any of this on JAB.  It's the problem of college basketball.  As a program, right now we are *cked as we are really stuck between a rock and hard place.
