We need another National Title

[Briancuse]

Nova now has two, we need another one, lets get it next year.

 

[Shark58]

Nova

greatest mid-major ever...besides WhoConn

 

[OrlandoCuse]

Nova had a 1 title lead on us for 18 years. Not a big deal.

 

[Brooky03]

Why settle for just one more?

 

[cmr27]

Jay Wright is going to win a lot more. He's underperformed a few times in the tourney prior. Sky is the limit now for Jay.

 

[Jake]

Not just two titles...two SPECTACULAR titles.

 

[Briancuse]

I really want that 2nd one.

 

[PeteCalvin]

I really want that 2nd one.

Then we better stop recruiting guys who smell the NBA like it's a prime steak. Or we should just recruit like Cal.

 

[weepeel]

Nova won that title and played like the hunters throughout the tournament...if we want to win another one we gotta have a mentally strong team...no off nights for anybody...

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Not just two titles...two SPECTACULAR titles.

They're real and they're spectacular.

 

[cmr27]

Not just two titles...two SPECTACULAR titles.

And Jay just coming into his prime. He's 54. He will win a few more.

 

[Syracuse44]

Then we better stop recruiting guys who smell the NBA like it's a prime steak. Or we should just recruit like Cal.

Yup, that's the answer. Recruit worse players. Good thinking..

I hope you're right, but methinks this was bad for SU...real bad.

 

[Brian Orange]

This is exactly why I was rooting big for UNC.

We need Malachi back, no question about it.

 

[Briancuse]

I was pulling for Unc, but I hate Unc, so the way they lost is kind of funny.

 

[orangehomer]

he seems to recruit tough-minded players that need to stay 3-4 years. given that no one else is kentucky, recruiting the malachis of the world that cant resist a whiff of the nba no matter how faint it might be doesn't seem prudent. we're not getting the one-and-dones that are actually good, we are getting the lower batch that parlay a few wins at syracuse into a first round selection ala ennis. and for the love of god, don't anyone post something about 25-0.

 

[Briancuse]

I hope you're right, but methinks this was bad for SU...real bad.

Not bad for us at all, its just a little frustrating that they have one more title than us.

It wasn't real bad for Syracuse. That is crazy. We rarely recruit the same players.

I think over the past 4 years, our recruiting has shifted southward (with some exceptions) due to the ACC membership. We seem to be concentrating more on Philly/Balt/DC. So there is some overlap with Villanova's recruiting area.

The interesting thing is we don't seem to go head-to-head with them very often. Q Green being a counter example.

 

[Madbiker]

We just can't get a break on keeping guys for a few years like some other programs. Hard to assemble all the pieces together at one time.

Weren't we just in the FF? It's not like we're irrelevant. We proved we can get there too.

I think you guys are totally wrong. Malachi (for sure), Roberson, and many others were all wanted by Nova.

Middle ground between those two is tough.

I don't think you understand just how difficult it is to win one of these things. But hey, you're not alone.
