JB must be allergic to beef. It’s the only explanation other than complete ineptitude recruiting non beanpole centers. Or he is just too stubborn. It’s just crazy. They said they were going to change their approach!! Lies. I would not be surprised if this is JB giving everybody the middle finger and not budging in terms of changing his preference and admitting he will change tactics after all. Signs of a particularly unhealthy ego if you ask me...

So my Dearest fans on Syracusefan.com,
How’s Sidibe holding up? Another big fat I told you so... You can’t bulk him up with protein and acid foods and expect him to hold up. The dude’s already had injury and inflammation problems. Sidibe will heal when you get him off the protein shakes/powders, and put him on a whole plant diet. He’ll never be super beefy that way but he’ll stay on the floor.
You also can’t use the lack of practice as an excuse for the poor play. Our four starters have more practice/playing time together than the Bryant roster. There’s also no excuse for being out of shape. Last time I checked you can do aerobics inside, or jog in your neighborhood. Joe looked like a dough boy he’s gotten so chunky. No one looked like they put weight on the right way. They looked like a bunch of guys who spent way too much time in the kitchen instead of working out.
And JB, for the record, you’re gonna lose Kadary to transfer if you don’t play him more, or even potentially bench Joe. Kadary is better, stronger, more fit, and has more game. Joe should not be the default starter just because he started last season.
So suck it up and stop making excuses. Y’all were downright putrid against Bryant. We deserved to lose and didn’t even remotely look like we belong playing in the ACC. Last but not least, recruit a freaking Big man already. Seriously. Frank gets a pass because he’s new, but you mean to tell me that Jesse, and JBA haven’t advanced enough to give us any meaningful minutes??? That’s just unbelievable... actually I take that back. It’s actually very believable... we’ve had no big man play for a long time now.
Smh

So now we’re inferior to Rutgers??? How much further can we fall? We almost lost to Bryant! Marek’s gonna get eaten alive by ACC or physical centers. Where’s Sidibe? Oh yeah, that’s right, he’s hurt again. Told ya so...
Where are our stellar center recruits JBA and Jesse? Hmmm 🤔. You mean they’re still not ready to play any meaningful minutes off the bench??? Seriously???
And that hidden gem Robert Braswell what’s he doing these days? Warming the bench? And Jalen Carey where’d he end up? And Goodine? And Washington? You recruited them!
And then we’ve got Dough boy Joe, who can’t shoot the ball into the ocean because he’s too short and slow. What’s up with him? You better bench him and start Kadary because he’s flat out better.
Please play Woody more too. He can contribute off the bench, and needs to see at least 10 minutes a game. Unless you want him to transfer out too?
And don’t you dare use Covid as an excuse because every team in the country is facing the same issue. You’ve been equally handicapped, and returned four starters.
One last note, hire a big man coach, or recruit a big man that can play high D1 basketball. For the love of God, Please!!!

They are killing this program.

There is no doubt we have problems, and I am concerned about ACC play as well. The talent level is not where it should be and that falls on recruiting. (JB and G mac).
But the inferior to Rutgers comment I don't get. They are a top 20 team in the best conference in the country. Yes it is inexcusable we are not a perennial top 25 team any more but losing a very competitive road game to that team is not indicative of our struggles.
In terms of "beef" in ACC play. We have the same beef as last year (slightly bigger considering the weight people put on) Again it is not at an acceptable level but wont be any worse than next year. My concern in ACC play is more that we do not have a Eli Hughes that can alleviate heavy man to man pressure and go get his own. Alan Griffin seems like a nice piece but not at that level yet.
Believe me I dont think were at the level we should be. But I do think the talent level is at least heading in the right direction from the last class and going forward. But I am intrigued to see a line up of Kadary, Buddy, Alan, QG, and Marek. And when Sidbe comes back him in the middle as well.

Also I am not holding my breath, but curios/excited to see the late offer to Brandon Huntley-Hatfield.
Seems like an interesting time to jump in unless we thought we really had a chance. Been burned too many times recently so I am prepared for that again but that would be someway to bounce back from Dior.

Dear Syracusefan Board,
The level of stupidity demonstrated during the second half of the Pitt game is downright embarrassing. All we did is jack up 3’s. Without Braswell we get blown out of the building in the 2nd half.
How are those amazing hidden gem big men you recruited?
Oh that’s right JBA didn’t play. Jesse didn’t play. Even Frank didn’t play. Seriously our big man recruiting is downright pathetic. Oh yeah, and then there is Sidibe... all I can say is I told ya so.
Our roster construction is horrible too. Two soft/unathletic slow footed guards defending the top of the zone and beanpoles down low.
No clock management with a big lead. No ability to inbounds the ball at the end of the game??? Joe didn’t come to meet the ball either.
We need to get a strong guy on the interior. There are no ands ifs or buts about it if we are outmuscled at every position on the floor we’re not going to beat good competition unless we shoot lights out. You recruited this unbalanced unathletic roster JB. Fix it or retire, please.

Dear Syracusefan board
Terrible end of game play. Obliterated on the boards. Where’s Sidibe??? Oh that’s right, he’s still hurt.
Mark my words... Syracuse will not ever be more than a bubble team if we can’t get a REAL big man. UNC has 3 bigs over 240. We don’t have one, and haven’t had one for what feels like a decade. Just no excuse anymore.
Retire JB if you cannot recruit a balanced roster with an interior presence. Please!
Found these ridiculous JB quotes on Twitter...
"We don't have a plan. We don't have anybody that can play that position."
“John Bol Ajak is "too small. "He can't get it done out there."
*JB did you not recruit all FOUR of these beanpole centers??? For the love of God retire if you can’t recruit a balanced roster with an interior presence.
And just for kicks... here’s another I told you so about Sidibe. Now write on the blackboard 100 more times Jazz was right, Jazz was right, Jazz was right.

Hey Jazz, I’ll do it for them.
Jazz was right Jazz was right Jazz was right Jazz was right Jazz was right Jazz was right Jazz was right Jazz was right...
Seriously dude, you nailed it with Sidibe. I remember those clowns on the other board trying to put down your medical knowledge because you’re a homeopathic medicine doc... dudes over there eating some serious crow. Sidibe is toast, and JBA and Jesse manning the middle are a joke too. Verdict is out on Frank but he’s pretty lean too.
JB needs to land a real center, and bring on a real big man coach. If he can’t recruit one then he needs to leave. I’m tired of getting big boyed all the time by more athletic stronger teams.
So I’m gonna say it too...
Big man or bust! And Jazz was right!!!

Thanks for having my back Rusty. I don’t want to be right about Sidibe, but for the life of me I knew they weren’t treating him right. It’s sad cause Sidibe is a good guy and he did have some talent.

So it looks like Jazz was right all along about our poor guy Sidibe. I think he’s done at Syracuse. Sadly, he could’ve been helped but western medicine only treats symptoms and not the root cause. Medicate or cut, that’s all they do. Time to address the processed/inflammatory diet and stop loading these guys up on protein. Hire a Naturopathic Doctor, and an energy healer. Guys like Sidibe would actually get better if you did. But what do I know, right? Smh

I kind of get the gist of what Jazz said about Sidibe, that he won't come back from his injury, but what exactly did you say Jazz? Medically speaking I suggested that since Sidibe moved to the States from Africa that his body is not used to the standard American diet which is very acidic, and is likely causing the inflammatory response. I suggested that surgery would not treat the underlying cause of his inflammation (tendonitis), and that it would likely recur after the surgery or flare up in another part of the body (I was right). I suggested trying to treat his inflammation with diet (similar to what he ate in Africa). As it stands, Sidibe got injured again in the first game of the season, and tore his meniscus which as we all know led to another surgery. I think it’s a damn shame Sidibe has In my opinion received the typical western allopathic approach... which is treat the symptom (cut and drug) and not the root cause. JB is saying he might play Wednesday. If they dope him up with cortisone shots maybe he can give it a go, but that approach will never get him better. I truly feel bad for the guy. Sadly, I think Sidibe’s career is over. Maybe he can contribute off the bench (like Dajuan Coleman did his senior year) but I don’t think he’ll ever get back to his full potential.

How can y’all deny it any more? Syracuse basketball is putrid. We’re in the sewer. We have 4 centers on scholarship and none are good enough to contribute. We have two slow guards who can’t blow by anyone. We have no one on the roster over 220 pounds. We have no flexibility in our defense. All 2-3 zone until we’re down 20 and then we press from the 10 minute mark on. We have no inside presence so when a team plays to deny the three and forces us to win inside (like Clemson did today) we get killed.
Please retire JB. You are singlehandedly destroying the program you built. I don’t think that’s how you wish to be remembered.
