Kinda wild. Where does he even play now? I lost track of him after Providence. He was the one kid that I thought would be legitimately decent if we held him for four years. ** Just checked. Fairfield!! His numbers actually aren't' that bad. His shining moment in Orange. I was there! When I saw you post his name I thought of this moment as a potential random play - but it was kinda a big deal with how crap we were.

I expect many “Nice kid” posts along with “possible coach” suggestions

Whenever the only nice thing people can say about a player is “he runs the court well for a big player”, don’t get your hopes up. People on Syracusefan used to talk up Devin Brennan McBride for the same reason. The Peter Carey dreamers were something else. Kid didn’t even look like he knew how to play basketball out there.

Kid didn’t even look like he knew how to play basketball out there. they’ve already moved onto Patterson being the next star I hold a little more hope there because: 1) As far as I know he actually played HS basketball and wasn’t out hurt most of the time. 2) I haven’t seen him play yet. With Carey, I was very skeptical because of number 1, and once we got to number 2, I saw nothing to suggest he might become a player. Havent seen Patterson yet to have an opinion. For the record, I liked Edwards and dubbed him “The Franchise” in his freshman year, lol. So I don’t always crap on the very raw bigs.

Another member of the greatest recruiting class is moving on. Carey never was in trouble but he was recruited as a project when we needed actual bigs who could play. He epitomizes the lazy Boeheim recruiting dip we have had the last decade.
Players don’t take 2-3 years in P6 basketball anymore to be playable. One year to develop to playable and then more development to be a rotation guy.

I feel like it's always pretty easy to spot the disaster with big men. That's why I'm always puzzled when people are like, "yo, check out Peter Carey! In 3 years he's going to be legit!" Maybe....but to take that flyer you gotta have some serious working depth.

How about Maryland? They also sucked. Can use a local that will score points right, Terps? Cmon, take him!

Erik Reynolds doesn’t seem to have much NBA hype?
He needs to play point if he’s going to make the NBA. Give him the keys and the stage!
Reynolds, Starling, Bell, Freeman, Brown is tourney bound. We won 20 this year and Reynolds is better than Mintz and Freeman is better than Taylor.
