Hopefully he keeps his academics in order with all these school changes and his transcripts are in order. Just sayin. I thought the move to Oak Hill would be really good for him. Perhaps he will return 🤷🏾♂️ 1 Quote

Shrug it off all you want...something is fishy here. Was there a disagreement between he and his coach about his injury and how long he would/should be sidelined? This may not be a “nothing to see here” type thing, ya know? Quote

This may not be a “nothing to see here” type thing, ya know? Of course we are only assuming.. but that is what I would think Coaches are trying to get him to play sooner than later to help them win games, and he probably wants to shut it down for a couple months and get back to 100% Quote

I assumed the opposite based on his comments about the nature/severity of his injury. He seems to be minimizing it. Just a hunch, but I think he wants to play sooner than his coach/training staff are recommending. I’m going to reach out to my dude on the hill and see if he knows anything. 🤔 1 Quote

That wasn’t a good team they were playing too. Bryant then at the end a Wide open 3 and a wide open 5-footer to win it and just missed. Syracuse deserved to lose. 1 Quote
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Maybe giving Syracuse the benefit of the doubt, UVA and Pitt were both upset in their openers by weak non-conference opponents. Maybe the lack of any meaningful practice is “evening out” these games by disproportionately hurting the teams with younger or new players, or that rely more heavily on “coached-up schemes” (like UVA’s man defense or SU’s zone defense).

Boeheim put it all on him for not letting his team practice for the last 2 weeks. Said it really hurt them Quote
