ChevyVanMiller Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Gillon on board. Provides much needed depth in the backcourt. http://www.scout.com/college/syracuse/story/1666095-gillon-adds-much-needed-depth Now just nedd to land that big. Good news. A solid signing that shores up the backcourt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB3 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 That's a good get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Hammersticks Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Gillon was a very nice get. Can play both guard spots and is experienced, obviously. Regarding Thompson, if we don't hear anything within the next couple days I will be worried. I think he's leaning Cuse, but I am afraid of Seton Hall making a late push. Looks like YUKON is out of the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 doesn't sound like Syracuse has any better chance than anyone else he is visiting, but this would be incredible http://www.syracuse.com/orangebasketball/index.ssf/2016/05/syracuse_gets_visit_from_7-foot_turkish_center_omer_yurtseven.html#incart_m-rpt-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Poojer Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 good luck to him, he was stuck behind good players and couldn't break free. He should be a very strong player...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Good move by Chino. Hopefully he gets some major minutes. By the way, not seeing MR's name on any NBA mock draft 1st round boards. I have got to think that unless he has a dominant combine, he has to come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"No one has seen their draft stock get a bigger bump the past few weeks than Richardson. Most scouts didn't see him as a one-and-done prospect, but after his strong performance in the NCAA tournament they've gone back to the film and seen one of the few wings in the draft who can create his own shot. With a great combine he might not be done rising." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I read that comment by Ford 2 months ago. The mocks I was looking at were BR and SI. Mocks, of course, are unreliable. So I guess we will see what happens at the combine.

bbb Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Good luck to Chino. Not much of an offensive game, but he did show potential on the boards. That's all we needed him for. Sounds like he plays hard on D. If he can be a rim protector and rebounder, we have a bunch of other guys who can score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Hammersticks Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Okay, I have it on pretty good authority that Mali Richardson is gone. Will announce soon. Another interesting little tid-bit is Syracuse's interest in JD native, Tyler Cavanaugh who is a grad transfer. Another talented guard to potentially add to the rotation...started at Wake before transferring to George Washington and having a pretty solid career there. Again, FWIW...

Will have a year of eligibility left and likes Syracuse. Again, FWIW.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugh on MR, but should be expected. He really cashed in on the F4 run. Hopefully it works out for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
