Can probably fill in a little at C or SF if needed. He was the starting C for Delaware last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 2 hours ago, DCOrange said: Jyare Davis to Syracuse is official. Gotta think Dakota Leffew will follow soon. In outgoing transfer news, Justin Taylor committed to James Madison and Maliq Brown is visiting (gulp) Duke. Taylor to James Madison??? He should have gone to Sienna! I think Maliq had one of his best games against Duke last year. Probably left quite a good impression. It would hurt to see him there.

That could certainly fly in a mid major.. but I don't think he could play center in the ACC Edited April 16 by Buffalo716 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we'll really want to play him at C but if McCleod and Patterson end up being hurt/non-factors, Davis will probably be asked to fill in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Any chance Mintz comes back? Looking at the mocks, and I don’t see any chance of him being drafted at all. Maybe we can make it worth his while with NIL to stay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Wouldn't that be something. on a separate note, really jacked about this limpken(?) signing from colorado. Not the typical Syracuse bean pole center. gonna be a nice addition. 20 hours ago, Miyagi-Do Karate said: Any chance Mintz comes back?

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Landed the Hofstra guard, Carlos.

That is awesome that he is getting all these Cuse alumni! I bet we will see Syracuse players looking for more PT transferring to Siena (maybe vice versa too)— a mini-pipeline! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have to be our worst of the worst like Peter carey If we have recruits going to that conference then we're not recruiting good enough If we have recruits leaving... At least if they're going to duke like maliq it shows we're getting the right guys If we have a bunch of transfers going to sienna it shows that we're recruiting mid major guys lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been so much recruiting “compression” these days with the transfer portal. And highly recruited kids now don’t want to stay to develop, and then don’t develop at all, and then have to go down a level. For example, I think guys like Goodine and Braswell were well recruited by us and they ended up at some middling schools. On the flip side and maybe more likely, It wouldn’t surprise me that you could get grad transfers from a MAAC school who Syracuse would be after. Similar to a guy like Cam Spencer. Patriot league player to star player on UConn as a 24-year old grad transfer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriot league player to star player on UConn as a 24-year old grad transfer. Goodine and braswell couldn't get a scholarship from Syracuse in 2005 That's my point... The sanctions hurt Syracuse recruiting We went from getting top 70-80 recruits... To top 300 recruits... Goodine and braswell were 4-5th options... Not number one high priority recruits Goodine should have never been in an su uniform... That's why he ended up at Fairfield I know the landscape is changing.. but Syracuse recruiting was very hampered during the sanctions... We were not getting the same type of basketball player we were getting for the last 40 years And it's going back in the right direction now.. with legitimate four and five-star recruits Goodine was basically a three-star guy which is not Syracuse caliber We get top 100 high major four-star guys Edited April 24 by Buffalo716 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
