The board bashing of Coach

[Scooch]

Greg Robinson, may he rest in peace, probably never set foot within hours of Syracuse, like his boss, before he got the job. Didn't know a high school coach within hours of the place, or the culture, etc. He was never going to get the players with that background and our crappy at the time facilities.

That's about 180 degrees off from Red (or for that matter had the job gone to Gerry) is and now where SU is in the hoops facility chase.

No players no chance. Players he has a chance, so we will see.

Oh, I agree. Just saying that some people get close to these guys and drink the kool aid. Which is fine. It just doesn’t mean anyone is more right than anyone else when it comes to divining the future.

He needs to play zone..

Signed his guns went quiet but were 3-0. Let's see how Texas goes.

We should be roasting the players not coach.

we roasted the players last year, same story different year? Whats been the constant?

Okay. I’ve lurking around this board for years, and 75% of you don’t know about anything. Especially the long time guys, who do nothing but second guess. What is it like with new players? That takes a few minutes to mesh. This team top to bottom is way more talented than last years. It’s not even close, and Red won20 games with a dsifunctional roster. Look at the guys who left pretty much with the exception of a couple went to non power for schools and can’t even put up stats in those places.

Needs to be some sort of chart that incorporates the highest level you played at and how many points you averaged or I'll still be lost

I'd prefer if everyone's height was listed on their profile. I need to know who to listen to.

With this roster, I have to agree. They're getting open shots and getting into the lane with ease. At least with the zone the inside will be clogged.

You make some decent points, but the guys that left from last year's team have not all flopped. Judah is in the G-league, Maliq is playing very well for Duke, Benny had 17 pts 7 rebs and 1 block his last game. Heck even Peter Carey is playing well for Siena. These guys weren't all stiffs - and at least 2 possibly 3 of them would be starting today if they stayed. The problem wasn't talent, it was attitude. They didn't get along with the staff and none of us know for sure why that was the case.
