Taurean Thompson

[Dave85]

While it seems like he'll never make a decision, I think we should give some thought to how we keep this thread going if he does in fact commit somewhere. It would be a shame for all of this to come to an end.

He may change his mind after he makes his decision like Battle did. This is not over. Oh, way from it!

P.S. It just occurred to me it might be a long time before he decides to change his mind.

I can smell ya already. From Jersey.

That's not him, that's just New Jersey. Too easy. You are throwing me softballs.

Five posts later someone posted the same joke posted. Oh well.

Time keeps on slipping slipping slipping into the future

Dust in the wind. All we are is dust in the wind.

Day 290 of TT Watch...

We just need something to break the log jam. Just one commit. TT... Green... somebody, and I believe the dam will burst and carry over to the class of 2017.

Seems like it has been an eternity considering the number of scholarships that are available. Well, today is Thursday and something good is suppose to happen on one of these Thursdays. Maybe today is the day.

In all seriousness, we might not ever fully know everything what happened. Only TT's answer counts. So long as he has an answer on a super special Thursday How bout some Asia? Then a Fresca

Quick random note (Really? In this serious and focused thread?!) A good friend of mine is dating John Wetton, the lead singer of Asia. He's battling cancer, so if you can send some positive vibes, they are welcome.

Now back to your regularly scheduled whatever the hell this is!!

It sure feels that way, doesn't it? I feel like if we got Green, then Tucker and Diallo would quickly follow. And TT might lead to Tucker. Who knows, but I agree, it feels like we just need one to get it going.

I would like to thank all the folks at SyracuseFan.com for the continued support.

"Okay, everybody, it's 11:00 pm. Time for dinner! ... Taurean, what do you want, the chicken or the beef?"

"I want the beef."

"No, eat the chicken."

"I want the beef"

"Eat the chicken."

"Beef."

"Chicken."

Time for a love song:

Day After Day

I remember finding out about you
Every day, my mind is all around you
Looking out from my lonely TT watch thread, day after day
Bring it home, baby, make it soon
I give my love to you

I remember holding you while you sleep
Every day, I feel the tears that you weep
Looking out of my lonely gloom, day after day
Bring it home, baby, make it soon
I give my love to you

Looking out of my lonely room, day after day
Bring it home, baby, make it soon
I give my love to you

I remember finding out about you
Every day, my mind is all around you
Looking out of my lonely gloom, day after day
Bring it home, baby, make it soon
I give my love to you.

Green, Tucker, Diallo, oh, that would be so awesome!

This is going to be a killer class.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Who you think breaks the news on him committing? I bet it its from his coach at Brewsters twitter account. Cant be him since hes not allowed on social media lol, and I doubt its one of the recruiting guys because the only time they get a story with quotes from him is when they see him at a tourney and those are all over. Who knows, maybe he pulls an Arod and announces during the Nba finals lol.

 

[EastCoast2]

I can smell NJ from CT

That recruiting weekend in April seems like such a long time ago. Hopefully our man Moyer is working the phones.
Class of 2016 recruit Taurean Thompson to visit Syracuse this weekend
