From what I am hearing, sounds like he was able to resolve the academic issue(s) that was causing his ineligibility. Sounds like he wants to play at Cincinnati (which leads me to believe that there may have been some “friction” after his G-League announcement), but is pondering overseas just in case Syracuse does not let him out of his NLI. I think they will let him off the hook though.

Don’t get your hopes up yet.... FWIW, I’m hearing that if he does decide to play college ball, he wants to play for Cincinnati (closer to home). Syracuse would have to agree to let him out of his LOI, but I can’t imagine that they would refuse his request. Edit: Just got a text stating that Bazley and “his camp” were weighing their overseas options as well.

???‍♂️???? Edit: Just heard that Bazley has yet to hire an agent...

Yeah, they probably think they can get Derrius Guice at 22 after trading back with Buffalo.

1. Sam Darnold - Bills 2. Josh Rosen - Jets 3. Josh Allen - Cardinals 4. Baker Mayfield - Browns 5. Lamar Jackson - New England Bonus: Bills Pick - Sam Darnold

I love how aggressive they’re being to address F depth. Golden would be a huge get for us at this point, and it appears that it’s a 2 horse race between SU and Illinois. Although Cuse is heavy favorite according to 247. Don’t know much about Braswell.

I hear that Pat Beilein from LeMoyne is the favorite, but now Rick Pitino has thrown his hat into the ring as well ? https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.timesunion.com/sports/amp/Rick-Pitino-interested-in-Siena-basketball-12835655.php

JB and G-Mac having an in-home visit with Joe Girard today. Looks like Boeheim and Coach K are going after him like rabid pit bulls. Hopefully, with the “over recruiting” practices at Duke gathering some media attn as of late (see Jordan Tucker, Quade Green), he makes the wise choice and stays in NY.

No, as I stated, I don’t think it’s likely. Do you not understand my position on this matter after two posts? To the OP....hell yeah I’d send Ritchie (with a bow on his head) to East Rutherford in 2 seconds if the Giants were to accept him as draft capital to move up to #2. I do not, however, think that this scenario is likely. In fact, I believe that this scenario is highly unlikely. That clear, Hap?

I don’t think they would, personally. If the Giants did, however, which is the question posed in the OP, then why would the Bills be opposed? That was my point. Please try to keep up with what we are actually discussing.

Have a blast Ritchie, and say hello to Mom for us. Just be sure to return that 1.5 million signing bonus ASAP. Enjoy your year of retirement!! Finally, someone who matters has the guts to speak out against these ridiculous antics. Thanks for having the balls, Thurman.

I just signed my contract last week for 2018-19. I wonder how it would go if I went to Twitter/Facebook in the same manner as RI did. Oh wait, I know, I’d be looking for another job very, very soon. Regardless of what is going on here, the guy clearly has confirmed his status as a lunatic. He deserves whatever he has coming his way.

Sure. If the Giants covet Incognito for some reason, and RI is a batshit crazy malcontent, why wouldn’t we be willing to package him in a trade to move up to #2? Especially if that meant that we were able to keep a pick or two in the process. Why the hell not?

Okay....Boeheim is a manipulative a-hole who wields a great deal of power at SU, and water is still as wet as it was 2 years ago. I still don’t understand your point, or how it’s related to the current conversation. Also, “tit in a wringer” made me laugh out loud.

Best decoy in pro football. Worth every .01 ?

Interesting timing that Battle is going to announce his intentions during Golden’s visit ? Still wouldn’t shock me if he declared and did not hire an agent. I think he will be back next season.

FWIW, I am hearing that Tyus has done extra course work, and is on track to graduate after next season. Word around the campfire is that the diploma is very important to him and his family. A lot of folks think he is staying one more season. ??

I don’t disagree with anything you posted, but he’s still full of crap. It’s just annoying to me. And maybe this belongs in the pet peeves thread. Recently my nephew (who is a little arrogant, spoiled prick) magically returned from boot camp. We threw a huge party for him right before he left! I gave him a card with $100! “Uh, yeah I just realized that the Army wasn’t the best option for me. I’m going to start off taking a couple classes at OCC and then look at pre-law programs.” His Father told my Father that he just quit because it was too hard for him. Was crying his eyes out when they picked him up. FULL OF CRAP!!! Be a man and tell the truth, you puke! ? Now here is Bazley....after totally disrespecting the coaching staff by withholding this until he last possible minute. Leaving them scrambling.... Now he’s grandstanding like some kind of pioneer. Give me a break ?

He’s full of crap...

Oh, I think it’s a lock if we get the first visit.

He could

I want to say that the late signing period deadline is in mid-may. Like May 17th or something. Huh?

My coffee maker has a built in bean grinder, so....

I was just coming on here to post this. I got a text from my friend in the know late last night saying “Looks like we have a really good shot at landing Bryce Golden. Would help soften the blow of losing Bazley.” My response was “Who the f$&k is Bruce Golden?” After doing some research, I think this would be huge for Syracuse if this happens. Big, strong, athletic, and supposedly a pretty decent jump shot.

Pretty close. Mud season ends in early May typically. June, July and August are usually beautiful here. Usually not too hot/humid in the summer. Autumn is beautiful as well. Harsh, snowy winters and muddy/rainy springs suck.
