A shiny new 5th year transfer.
I have some cash if needed
(This is a joke )
How about that pg from Yale that said he was going to be a graduate transfer next year? He had a great tourney last year.
Did you put the joke part in there due to the culture of folks thinking the NCAA monitors this board closely seeking reasons to ban Syracuse? I'm asking seriously.
I remember people insisting Tyus Battle was promised he'd play the point if he came here. Maybe it was for his 2nd year?
Those people were without a clue. He was promised the ball would be in his hands. In other words, a focal point.
Unless I misheard the last podcast from Francis, it sounds like Quade Green may be wavering on his commitment to Kentucky. Green appears to be a 1-and-done but might prefer 40 mpg rather than the 20 mpg he will receive based on Cal's current class and targets. Normally I don't believe these types of rumors but Francis is the best source for Syracuse recruiting information...by a mile!
Howard and Battle are not a bad backcourt. Howard was projected to be a 4-year player and has shown some flashes in his first 2-years. Howard is solid defensively and really improved his shooting from FR to SO. If he learns to make better decisions he will be a solid PG. I think Howard just needs more experience and confidence. Battle is a stud and will be dominant, if he returns next season.

Howard is NOT solid defensively.
Please tell me you remember reading that plenty and I am not hallucinating though, right? And I do mean plenty!
He did have that poke away in his short time today.
Maybe I accidently clicked on an old podcast and heard something based on optimism. I don't want to speak for Francis. Just assume I am wrong. I don't post often, I will just go away for a while. Francis rules!!!
He did. It was after our keystone cops pressure and he poked it away from behind trying to catch up to the charging Cardinal. Frank in the halfcourt is a fail.
