I thought so too, but our good buddy Jerry Meyer made it seem like they pushed Thornton out and asked David Robinsons son to pay his own way. Interesting.
Pity. No way to fix that kind of thinking. Hopefully, our other prospects will come through. I like the (new) direction the staff is going.
My guess is they're talking about Dembele.
Yeah, with three open, Syracuse seems poised to add one. Hopefully, they surprise me, but right now the hive ain't exactly buzzing.
Pretty messed up what K did he. No one seems to be talking about it, but if it was another coach he would be ridiculed. K literally told Thornton to reclassify, because he would get minutes,Thornton does that gets some burn and honestly, I thought he was solid. Now apparently this is K basically forcing him out of the program to make room for that Bolden kid. *** Coach K.
I'm sure they have a lot of feelers out, but that's I meant by the hive (this place) isn't buzzing. I can't remember the last time SU had a surprise recruit that didn't pop up on the radar in advance of an offer. Maybe Buss. There's not a lot rumors floating around and it's fairly quiet for something should be pretty busy for a team that needs some depth and has 3-4 openings. The late signing deadline is only just over a month away. Is there a different deadline for transfers?
The problem is that the transfer market is quickly growing thin, at least the grad market. The traditional transfer list does seem as inspiring as year's past and I wonder how many are SU fits. I know very little about what's available from the JUCO ranks, but you'd have to imagine the best options are already committed...Anybody have any JUCO's out there?
That's very true, but it's also true that the available players is growing smaller by the day...
I posted this over in the Taurean thread last night, but TT's teammate at Brewster, Alpha Diallo, is a top-100 recruit (#94 according to ESPN) and is uncommitted. I have a hard time seeing JB going after him, or really anyone this late, with much urgency. But it's fun to pretend.
I think you've made your opinions known (many times), and it's quite clear you have no idea what you're talking about. You have no clue whether a recruit demonstrates authentic SU interest, where he is on the board or how me might fit in the system, what timing or expectations might have been discussed for an offer or commitment, what JB does or doesn't do with any specific recruit, how often he or other coaches visit with the recruit, when staff communicates by phone, twitter or text, when they watch games, meet or talk with parents, etc.. So I wish you would find another place to make backhanded accusations that the SU coach is lazy in recruiting. This is a fan forum, and you're degrading the quality of the dialogue with all the smack you're spewing.
