Class of 2022 SG/SF Justin Taylor (VA / IMG) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

[CuseMan4]

You can say Justin is all in. Already has Cuse Basketball part of his Instagram bio and deleted all his official visit pictures with other schools. Only Cuse content and high school content up now. Love to see it

 

[CardiacCuse]

this dude is a straight baller...Im from VA and we got talent for days in hoops...a lot of these highlights he has are with a hand in his face/tight D from good defenders with length...he's like Buddy on steroids. Special pickup. GET HYPED!!!!

 

[HOFCeluck]

Donuts?
Clams into butter?
Crazy bread?

Oooooo that second one is highly underrated.

I'm excited! Just got home and saw this. Welcome to the Orange family JT, and great job by the coaches putting this class together so far. Got a bunch of pages to catch up on here.

Another one of my edits lol

Keep that going... We've seen several kids retweet your work, and nobody at the athletic department seems to have your skills.

These kids live in a self imposed fishbowl, and that stuff is very important to them. Even if we adults don't really get it.

I heard you're fifteen? Maybe they can find you some freelance work once you're legal, lol

 

[cuseattle]

Love that!

If last year didn’t show that you that Jesse was more than capable now, not sure what you are looking for.

Boeheim believing in him enough to not play an out-of-position guy ahead of him.

notice on the wall? That restaurant already has his pic up.

 

[Orangezoo]

Talk about having some off-season momentum.

Paging CR...looks like JT will make his appearance in the ESPN rankings along with all the other recruiting sites that have him ranked. This will probably disappoint you.

 

[AZOrange]

This class reminds me a bit of 2002. One guy unlocked the whole damn thing. I think JT is that guy here

 

[Orangezoo]

Wouldn't it be something if we get Quadir and both he and JT come in at 6-8...

Everyone is 6-8!

 

[Orangezoo]

Everyone is 6-8!

Works for me. Let's go all Rothstein and get Kamari in at 6-10 and Filip at 7-1

 

[CuseFTW]

Havent had time to read previous pages but Virginia must be pissed we took this kid from their backyard right? GREAT pickup

 

[Toga]

Everyone is 6-8!

It's like that damn Illinois team that beat in the tournament. Everyone on the team was 6'6.

That’s so damn cool. It’s so easy to be happy for these guys.

I can’t wait to see him in the dome. Feels special.

Not to rain on the parade, but UVA got a commit for his position a while ago - the interest in/from UVA was never serious; I think they were included in his top 5 as a courtesy.

UNC Basketball: 4-star recruit spurns Tar Heels, picks ACC rival

The UNC basketball program missed out on this 4-star recruit to another ACC program. Where did this prospect ultimately commit to?

Absolutely was legit.

Well his girlfriend was legit. And he outed her as his source, possibly getting her in hot water. Isn’t that a little reckless?

 

[Cusefan69]

It's also possible that like a number of NY kids, that Taylor wanted to leave Virginia and maybe Virginia was aware he wasn't a grab. Happens to Cuse plenty, I am sure it happens in VA as well.

Everyone is 6-8!

Me too... I'm 5'9, which I just round up to 6', add in my socks and sneakers.. I'm 6'1 and a half. Since they usually add two inches, that makes me 6'3 and a half, when I let my hair grow I'm clearly 6'6 and a half which rounds to 6'7. Now I remember that on my license I'm listed as 5'10, so I add another inch to everything which makes me 6'8...

Yeah, clearly 6'8...

Everyone!! Battle, Liberty Gill, Nick Anderson... I forget the 5th guy..
