This recruitment is a semi soap opera that sounds like it may favor us for once.

True. I really can’t see Boeheim and co. trying to turn a Duke commit out of respect for his buddy K, though.
I still think Maryland and Ohio St are better fits for him. Who knows.

Shocked... but if true this is really good news. At least he’s got some post moves, and can bang down low. Something we desperately need.

You guys should see how stupid the fan recruiting thread is on Tapé. You have the usual Gestapo enforcement going on, primarily that jackass Orange79. He's having his usual power trips attacking people who are bringing up the play of Sidibe and others Tapé would be competing against were he to choose Syracuse. He's telling them to talk about other players in other threads lol. Yea like talking about his competition for playing time here is so off-topic. Freaking moron. I mean it's just utterly ridiculous what goes on there. You can see how everybody posts there like they're walking on egg shells all the time. I can post there- I'm not banned, but I don't because it's so stupid there. I'll occasionally visit to see if there's some additional information that I'm missing elsewhere, but nothing I'm not finding here. We need to increase traffic here and blow that site away.

I totally get the desire to reel in a 5 who is a legit offensive threat, has post moves etc, but I will take anyone at his size who is a space-eater and a massive disrupter on the defensive end. We lack someone who can challenge the foul line shooter while effectively sliding back down to guard the rim. Fab Melo was our best ever at that. He was fantastic in his final season here, RIP poor Fab :-(. So to that end, if he chooses us, I'd love to see a defensive, shot-blocking force who can get us into transition and run more with his defensive play.

Sidibe gets bounced around like a pogo stick at times where as Tape is pretty solid kid. Better on the offensive end and looked good on D too. Let the two fight it out to see who gets the nod. At least we won't have to worry about Marek playing Center if does come here. Might also be a good idea to look at redshirting Jesse this year too. Give him time to bulk up like JBA did this year. Then Jesse and JBA will have 3 more years for us which we would be a nice thing to have.

Micromanaging at the finest over there on that site. I guess somethings never change.

Agree with you guys. The simple fact that the staff was in heavy with Tape on the first go around is an indictment of their concern over the C position. The other board makes it seem CDBay turned into Olajuwon. He improved but a lot of his production game in garbage time when either we were getting waxed or winning big, IMO. He‘ll never stop fouling and you can’t put Edwards out there against legit competition until he puts on 30lbs. He’s even more of a ragdoll. Still, if I’m Tape, I would want an easier route to playing time and the best chance to go to the Tournament. OSU and Maryland check the boxes in this case.
