The Melo Impact

[wiCuse]

It appears that we're stuck with Red next year. With that said, there's hope with Team Melo's two year financial support. We know Melo is watching most of these games. Would a better investment be buying out Red? Does he feel Syracuse's lack of success positions Kiyan to get solid PT to showcase for the NBA. I'm trying to understand how things are better with an additional NIL budget as I watch Arkansas, Indiana, etc. The worst outcome is to tarnish the Anthony name if things go poorly. Can anyone inject hope into me with Red as our HC and Melo bankrolling the team. How does this scenario improve our current situation?

Pretty much what I've been saying for the last month+

No. Buying out Red next year doesn't make sense unless we have really deep pockets. Take the 5 to 8M and put it into NIL. We simply don't have the money for both.

If it's 5-8M then someone else should be fired. That is beyond ridiculous.

Red, staff, New staff

No way did they sign red to a 4 year deal at 2.5-4mil. If they did wildhack needs an iq test and then needs to be fired for incompetence.

Okay. I was worried that was just Red.

The sooner he's canned, the more money in the bank in the end.

It's evident that the athletic department does not want to fund this. That's why I suggested Melo. He does have deep pockets and could convince others...

Regardless, I haven't heard a solution that provides any ounce of hope.

If Melo watches any of these games closely, he can't think Red is the right person for the job or his son. If he does I question if he is watching the games completely drunk or if his glasses are so orange he can't see the TV.

Get rid of the whole staff. The JB and the 2-3 zone era is history! Time to start over with a new identity!

Assuming contracts don’t expire on the assistants and there is a buyout.

If the assistants are on anything but one-year contracts, the AD needs to be given his papers before any of the changes occur.

I'm just going off one of our insiders information.

Hopefully they spell JWs name correctly on his " papers " as im pretty sure the guys are not year to year.

Just unbelievable. Who do they think would poach any of them. I have heard reds job is safe and I just don’t get it. Are they watching what we are.

Big mistake for a lot of reasons.

It's complicated. Set your sights on next year and enjoy watching the team as almost all of them will be gone next season

Enjoy watching the team?

What is enjoyable about watching this team? And I'm being serious when I say that.

Starling might be the only redeemable piece to watch play. The others are either one-year rentals or guys that play a very unlikeable brand of basketball.

Not a lot to enjoy about this team.

Starling's style of play isn't enjoyable to watch if it doesn't lead to a win. Bad defense high volume low-efficiency scorers are not fun to watch anymore.

I personally like Davis. I enjoy Cuffe on D. My favorite is McLeod, completely. Misused
