Honestly he hurts the ball movement on our team

Agreed. Even when he is on, everyone just stands around and watches him make contested jumpers. 
 

I really believe Griffin is one of those guys that will make a much better pro than college player. He ought to just leave and play overseas or in the G league.

So if I'm doing the math right and my assumptions are correct, we should have 4-6 more scholarships available to play around with for the rest of the roster. This is based on the following roster (which is what I would assume we're likely to end up with, but things could change):

 

PG: Girard

SG: Buddy

SF: Benny

PF: Swider

C : Jesse

 

Symir Torrence (both guard spots)

Jimmy Boeheim (both forward spots)

One of Anselem/Sidibe (center)

Chaz Owens (probably won't play)

 

Sidibe won't require a scholarship either way, so we might be able to keep him as a player while also having that scholarship free.

 

I definitely do not think we will use all 13 scholarships this year (or at least not on real scholarship players; maybe we'll do a walkon or two a solid for a year), but we should be able to add a couple more recruits be it through transfers or late HS commitments.

 

The trouble is that assuming Jimmy does transfer in and that one of the C's stay, that'll pretty much be all of our playing time spoken for so it'll be tougher to pitch to transfers.

I think the Swider commitment likely deters Jimmy Jr from transferring to Syracuse.

Why?  Both non scholarship players that are immediate starters.  I see no downside, especially if we assume it's big Jim's final run.

 

Never mind, reread what you typed.  I get it.  Jimmy is looking for a start, not a competition to start

Woody Newton officially transferring.

 

And Kadary Richmond has officially chosen Seton Hall.

Boeheim would have had Richmond in the first round eventually 

 

Something tells me he's not going in the first round from Seton Hall.. which has only developed one first round pick in 20 years 

 

And one second round pick in the last 10 

 

He would have been developed much better at Syracuse despite maybe a few less minutes

This off-season’s blood letting continues.  I just hope they can bring in more than Swider and Jimmy B Jr. With 1000+ players entered into the portal, they should be able to pluck a couple of nice players.  

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a very specific reason to revive this one.
