Seton Hall or Maryland for Copeland is what I was told. Copeland and Kadary would be amazing, if Kadary comes back. Syracusefan mods would be FURIOUS.

He is leaving because of clashing with the coaches. I heard this afternoon. I support him and don’t have any anger he has a right to go to another school. Clashed how? He wanted to start.

Syracuse fans in Taylor - “hard working kid who gave it his all who I want to kill it. We won’t be as good without him.”
Syracuse fans on Copeland - “locker room cancer who was almost as bad as Benny and we will be ten times better without him.”

I'm bummed to a degree about Copeland, but I need to be honest...and forget the attitude stuff...it's all rumors.. 1) He was originally brought in to be long in the zone 2) He wants to be a PG Is what it is. He is leaving because of clashing with the coaches. I heard this afternoon. I support him and don’t have any anger he has a right to go to another school. Yeah thats fine, I didn't NOT believe it if that make sense...just saying that he wants to play PG and Red, being the PG he was, prob watches him and is like, yeah, no. He wasn't even close to as good as Kadary freshman year, so I have no issues with no starter guarantees with him. I have no beef with him thought, hope he does well wherever he goes.

He was in our 5 best players for sure. He played starter’s minutes though. Q and Brown were easily my favorite players on this team so it sucks to lose him. Thought he played hard and played to win, and his on court antics didn’t bother me because I don’t think they hurt his play. Kinda like Devo, I think it’s just who he is. If he’s really that much of a pain in the ass though….i don’t know. Dasher is not in the “toe the Syracusefan line” crew, but I wonder who he’s getting the info from and if it’s slanted or not. I will say….if Westry is healthy, do we really need Q? They seem like they have similar skill sets. Maybe Q knows he’s not going to be the PG and knows Westry must bust his ass and take his spot?

It actually annoys me that cause Taylor is a good looking white boy everyone is gonna wish him well. But a few insiders post “rumors” and now Copeland is benny 2.0 and a detriment to the team
If I had to choose between one of them next year for our team I’m choosing Copeland 95/100 times

How much can you rely on his potential there

Dasher’s source covers the program in the media. I don’t want to say exactly who out of respect to him but his source is close to the program and not affiliated at all with the other board.

Syracuse fans in Taylor - “hard working kid who gave it his all who I want to kill it. We won’t be as good without him.” Syracuse fans on Copeland - “locker room cancer who was almost as bad as Benny and we will be ten times better without him.” Has anyone called Taylor a future coach or future commentator yet? When I was close to my last straw this time last year, someone posted about how great of a commentator Girard would make in the future. So I started making the same posts about Symir Torrence. Like, “this Torrence kid is just a gritty and heady coach on the floor and clearly will be a future coach or commentator.”

How much can you rely on his potential there True, but he’s been practicing and the players always know what they’re up against. So I’m merely hoping that was a factor here, lol.

I trust most of the boards sources, so I'm not doubting what they are hearing...but I will say, much like the KADARY LAZY line was used MID SEASON when it was clear he was better than Joe and then we saw JB repeat it after he left...I wouldnt be shocked if the "Q is an issue" line is coming after he decided to leave. I'm not suggesting if it's true or false, just that it's coming from the source that wants that narrative out there

Never heard it until recently when rumors of him leaving popped up. If we get better players and have a better team next year, I really won’t care about this though.

He and this team is not good enough to get worked up about. Quincy and Kadary were at least coming off a Sweet 16....and being replaced by Jimmy and Symir.... if we replace Q with another of Red's sons, then I'll have a similar problem.
