Are you almost done your QB evaluations?
Yes. I know I didn't put up White and Rosen and it's so close to draft time
it just takes me forever to type them out and it is tiring lol the early guys I posted were the ones most asked for so I stomped them out as put them up... if you want them I will gladly post them in the next few days

Ok, so we were second.
Alright. Then we're the first NFL team to use the 12th man term. Does that work?
Im not even gonna get in a tizzy about it lol
the Bills are the original 12th man of the NFL

Hey man...it’s all about damage control now. We need depth. We aren’t landing any 2018 4-5 * recruits at this stage in the game.
Majak would be a good insurance policy if Sidibe’s health continues to be an issue. Policelli is a 3* kid probably comparable to Matt Moyer. Maybe a little better offensively.
I feel like you and I should just talk on the phone ?
Hahahahha ?
All about depth control at this point so I'll take anyone

Yes. Graduated in December.
Frankie Policelli (SF) and Majur Majak (C) are also 2018 uncommitted players linked to Syracuse that could provide depth. I heard they were going hard after Majak, and I suspect they will pursue Policelli as well.
Yea I know about majak... he seems like a chukwu
good shot blocker but probably not much on the offensive end. He like a low end 3* prospect

Trey Porter is a redshirt junior PF transfer from Old Dominion who would be immediately eligible. I think he should be on the top of their list. Great defensive player/rebounder whose offensive game made tremendous strides this year. Was his conference’s most improved player this year. There also is the overseas option and the JUCO option.
Why is he immediately eligible? Did he graduate and has 1 year left

Absolutely! If Battle and Brissett both stay I think we will be okay. More than likely will be in the grad transfer market as well. I’m trying not to panic until I absolutely have to.
I absolutely think we will be in the grad transfer market but after looking through the list a few days ago it looks rather slim so gotta hop on it quick
ikenna smart is a 6'10 forward from UB who plays pretty good defense though is limited offensively... still he's a body

I heard from a friend who works in the athletic department that he was likely going to be academically ineligible, and that is why he made this decision.
That was my first thought... just stinks because we went from a very good team to a bunch of question marks in a weeks span

No, I think you’re misunderstanding me. That coaching staff had no idea. I’m suggesting that him reporting that he had been thinking about doing this for a long time is pure BS. Again, I don’t know for certain, but I think he’s now trying to save face.
Ok. Are you saying he's ineligible do to academics? Or do to breaking NCAA violations possibly with agents and stuff? Which is what I feel you're referring too

I read this also, and this makes his decision all the more head-scratching. I feel like there are only 2 possible scenarios here. Either he was not going to be eligible and the g league was his only option, or he stupidly made this decision based on promises of large sums of money (“loans”) from an agent. Could be that scenario A led to scenario B.
Smokescreen ?
Much easier to say it was his choice, rather than admitting that he was ineligible.
But what about the whole SU still promoting him... if they knew...
they wouldnt be promoting and hyping him up... they also got hit blindsided

I haven’t heard any accounts that he made up his mind to do this a while ago. Where did you hear/see this? I know the media pundits are portraying him as a trailblazer, and it may turn out that way coincidentally, but I’m hearing that he was all-in on Cuse up until recently.
Seems a bit odd to me, and certainly seems to support what my guy is saying about eligibility issues forcing his hand. Who knows?
I completely agree with you that he gave the Cuse coaching staff the ultimate bag over the head punch in the face. I’m pissed, and I can’t imagine how the coaches feel. I hope in the future that NBA GM’s/coaches consider his actions as they relate to his character (maturity, loyalty, etc...).
Let me see if I can find the article... I read it last night... basically Bazley said it wasn't an easy decision and it's been on his mind for a long time... he said he always has been a trend setter and not afraid to do different things
at the least if it's been on his mind for a long time he should have told Boeheim ,which my friends still up there say didn't happen . Boeheim was shocked and pissed
SU was actively promoting Bazley in the all American game... they had no idea

Wikipedia gives credit for the first use of the 12th man in a magazine referring to the University of Minnesota football team "rooter" in 1900.
Honestly the Bills stole the term from Texas A&M also
they have had it on their stadium for a long long time as well

I think he really wanted to play at ‘cuse. I don’t think he was going to be eligible, and made this decision to save face. Make it appear as though he willingly chose a year of the g-league over major college basketball.
By all accounts he made up His mind a while ago to do this and never told Boeheim and Syracuse
even if it was because of eligibility issues he should have informed SU way before he did
he literally waited till end of march lol and the all anerican game

I just saw a “cleaned” up image of the last supper on the TV.
Peter is looking at Mary - his left hand on her shoulder and his right arm and hand at a wired angle is holding what looks like a knife with a long loop on the upper side.
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/LastSupper-58f635443df78ca159f2dd55.jpg)
Every recreation is slightly different
On those ones it does clearly look like Peter is holding it.
on grainier originals it doesn't look as clean and you can't tell if it's Peters hand at an angle
also Divinci was known to portray biblical figures as very feminine including John the baptist as well... who was very rugged... Still no absolute proof it's Mary and not a feminine John in the picture
no gospels put Mary at the last supper even though Davinci is allowed creative license in his art... he wasn't there obviously but history doesn't put Magdaline there
: AFTER DOING SOME STUDYING :
i came to the conclusion that Peter is the one holding the knife... with Judas in the foreground knocking over the salt container holding a bag of coins foreshadowing his bribe ( the scene is right after his intentions are made known)
Peter is possibly holding the knife foreshadowing his attack on the Roman guard in Gethsemane

Honestly, what goes through Bazley’s mind watching the final 4? This is why you play college ball. Not to play before 300 people in Soiux Falls.
Hes selfish and doesn't care about hurting SUs program

Its about time a FO had the smarts to pay attention to some home town talent !!
Could we imagine what might have been if the previous regimes would have drafted Mack & Gronk ??
What were they thinking ?? Oh thats right they weren't !!!
That depends what you call hometown talent? Gronk is a western New Yorker who is a hometowner and went to Arizona to play college ball
Mack and Hosley aren't western New Yorkers and just happen to play ball at UB

Great! Thanks for the information.
Is Hodge a Legit prospect at Linebacker?
Yes. Right now I have him as my 5th ranked Inside linebacker for next year
a legitimate 43 middle linebacker who doesn't come off the field. I think with another fantastic year he will absolutely get drafted in the mid rounds depending on his 40
He has legitimately good size at 6'1 240 so if he runs well he will be coveted especially for a Mid Major

Makes sense. Is there still a stigma against MAC players, or is that coming down lately with the likes of Mack and others that have succeeded?
It is definitely going away but it still sticks for some positions like WR and CB
mainly that nobody thinks the MAC has good corners worth a lick so the standout WRs get really downplayed because of lack of good corners in the MAC
Corey Davis was uncoverable for 4 years pretty much and his play combined with his size made him a first rounder... sort of like Mack who was D1 all time leader in forced fumbles
his stats combined with his NFL body made him super desirable no matter where he came from...
If Johnson can run a 4.47 or low 4.5 he will definitely turn some heads because he jumps up and snatches everything

Looks to me like a monster season would have him mid to high first?
Also, He's Jadeaveon Clownys Cousin! That's pretty cool.
It could happen. He's certainly built like it and is probably the best high pointer of the football in college ball
I don't like jinxing my friends at UB. He's a JUCO player who will only have 2 years of D1 ball opposed to 4...
but he certainly is like Corey Davis in the MAC... a man amongst boys... uncoverable
if he had 4 years of production I'd say he would be a first round type guy
i can still see 2nd or 3rd if he goes for 1400 again... hopefully 1500 and 17 TDs lol
