Syracuse missed out on Isiah Whitehead

[Fly Rodder]

Sure they did ...

Link:

"Whitehead came to South Orange complete with his own personal posse, both on the court and off. He arrives everywhere with teammates Carrington and Rodriguez, but also with five or so others who are not players nor family members. It's not known whether or not they are even Seton Hall students, yet they are constantly in Whitehead's company.


The Whitehead faction has caused a tremendous rift within the core of the Pirates, one that now cannot be repaired, certainly not this season, if not ever."
​

More like Syracuse dodged a bullet with this kid.

Didn't the same thing happen during the early 2000's when Tristian's favorite coach (Amaker) recruited some ballyhooed talent to South Orange that ripped the team apart?

The position at the YMCA was already taken.

Great article on him from grantland, gave me a completely different view of him. Sometimes we don't know the whole story.

One guy is already leaving

Decent player we recruited at one point, Jaren Sina.

Exactly. A ton of drama, always been with this guy. Terrific scoring combo guard, but imagine him here with all the chaos this season.

 

[tbonezone]

a breakout season ? this clears up a number of these outbursts. no doubt whitehead has become a blemish on the face of the program

Didn't someone on Seton Hall punch a dude the other night?

Yeah, Seton Hall is a dumpster fire.

Might be a Lincoln HS thing. History of head cases.

Whitehead = DeShaun Williams Jr.

Entourage on the college level, yikes!

To be fair, he was mentally ill.

When we walk away, trust the coaches.

Only thing missing is his lycos email address and link to his geocities page.

 

[HOFCeluck]

The biggest story here is the horrible website.

The article and comment was about Eddie Griffith, not whitehead.
