OK, very few posts so I'll go:

Good for Cornell, took it to us early.  It looked like a Pitino recruited and coached team - a good thing.  It was hard to believe how much better their inside game was in the first 12 minutes or so - 2 wide open alley oop scores while Jessie was in the game!

Judah 'floor burn' Mintz: a black hole in the first half.  Taking wild shots while Jessie is near the basket and 5 inches taller than everyone else.  Hit the floor multiple times; I surprised that the trainers don't cover him in mole skin.  He played better in the second half and was a significant contributor to the win.  Edit: I'm going with Mole Skin Mintz.

Joe 'chucker' Girard.  Keep chucking Joe, keep chucking.  What is really beneficial this season, is that his handle is excellent for a SG.

Maliq - undersized, less athletic Cornell is killing us on the boards and inside - killing us and making it look easy with a ~12 pt lead.  Three SU guys under the basket and a Cornell player, 4" shorter than all of them, not only gets the O reb but puts it back in - more than once!  Maliq comes in and within 2 minutes the ball lands in hands for multiple rebs, and of course he scores a couple pts here and there.  The game turned when he came in.  He also played a bunch of minutes at center.

I like a lot of the pieces that we have.  Still not sure that they are really for the ACC.
