Johnny Hammersticks Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 This team will live and die by Cooney, I'm afraid. Was good to see him hit a couple big ones today...get his adrenaline pumping a little. I am concerned about CJ Fair having to carry too much of the weight on offense.

Hopefully cooney gets hot at the right time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM57 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I agree completely and would say if they win they would definitely get a 1 seed. I would prefer a 1 seed but as long as they go Buffalo MSG I don't really care what seed they are. I would love to see them win the ACC tournament but that would be a tall order with their short bench. However since they don't play until Friday they will have only played 1 game in 10 days by the time the game rolls around. Hopefully that is enough time for them to get their legs back, Keita's knee to recover more, and Grant to feel better. CBS Sports currently has them projected as the top #2 seed in a region with Villanova at 1, Louisville at 3 and Michigan State at 4. ESPN hasn't updated since 3/6 so I won't bother posting it. still has Kansas as a 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hate to be in the same region as them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you never count Tom Izzo's teams out in the tourney either. Not favorable, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Last night at the Hardwood Club dinner, Syracuse named the first ever individual award after Baye Keita. Basically an award for being a good person, student, and teammate. Tremendous honor and well deserved. Even more impressive that they named it after a current player.

The Poojer Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 he takes a lot of abuse from fans for having horrible hands, but look at how he has grown as a player over the years, no one works harder out there and he is a beast in the zone. I have heard he is also a good student as well. Congrats to him, he has made himself a big part of SU Basketball lore.

section122 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 11th in both polls.... Laughable to still see Duke up above with 7 losses... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Cuse going to play the Miami/NC State winner. Who would you all rather see them play? I'd say Miami. I know they played us tough twice this year, but I'm terrified of TJ Warren. Kid can flat out ball...carry his team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffOrange Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Don't care too much but I'll take NIT St. They don't try as hard to bring the game to a snail's pace, Warren's all they got, they can't shoot 3's, and based on the spread today (and kenpom) Miami is actually a hair better. Plus it'd be pretty sweet to run thru an all Tobacco Road gauntlet to the title on their turf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tar----heels Tar-----heeels You better hope UNC doesn't't have to play the Cuse if they make it to the finals. Here's how it will go down. Cooney hits three quick three pointers to start the game and BOOM... Some weirdo comes over the loudspeaker and screams, "He's on fire!" and then Cooney bursts into flames and starts hitting half court shots that singe the nets and doing super somersault front flip dunks.
