Syracuse Orange

SU can have another great year with veterans Joseph, Jackson and Jardine leading the way. Triche is another year along, and from many accounts much more improved and we have a stellar class in Fab Melo, C.J. Far and Dion Waiters coming in. Future looks bright for the Orange, not even getting into the vaunted 2012 class!!! UConn's in the dumps and SU's looking good, does it get better?

[Syracuse Orange]

My man…this is a good SU team.  I expect us to start a little slow as they learn each other's style, but man SU will be a tough out for anyone by the end of the season.  SU will be a beast come dance time.  It will be fun. 

And JB is receiving great recruits for the class of 2011.  SU has verbal commitments from Max preps #36 Rakeem Christmas, 6-9/225 and #52 Michael Carter-Williams, 6-5/175 and #88 Trevor Cooney, 6-3/190.  Three top 100 players to go along with this group.  SU is coming for everyone. 

Go Cuse!

Yes, Hopkins and Murphy have been doing a great job recruiting. BTW Trevor Cooney is way under ranked at 88. This guy is GMAC with hops.

Can't wait for the season to start!!! Will be in Atlantic City for the legends classic.

Good luck this year fellas. The Cuse will be gooooood. We don't wanna see you until the Finals!

G-MAC with hops? I just got chills......

Joseph and Triche are on the preseason Wooden award list of nominees. I think Kris will have a breakout year. I'm surprised Triche made the list. Sorry Brandon!!!

It was really good to see Wes Johnson in action, he did great ... it was too bad that Flynn didnt play with him in that game ... i am excited to see them together

This new posting format is terrible. Does anyone care for this? Change for the sake of change isn't always a good thing.

Check out this cool video introducing this years freshman. This is the Scoop and Wes show from syracuse.com http://blog.syracuse.com/orangebask

this years freshman seem really good ... i am excited to watch this year ... Good Luck Syracuse

new posting is TERRIBLE...liked the subject lines so you dont have to read every msg

can we refrain from calling cooney G Mac with hops. Gmac was one of the greates shooters in NCAA history

OK, how about this?  Come on Trev!  Time to rev it up!

What's wrong with calling him G-Mac with hops? Gerry didn't really have hops. He was insanely good but hops he did not have unless he went drinking lol. Still luv ya Gerry!

can we just not compare him to gerry at all. trev sounds good to me. i hate the comparison games, i remember when paul harris and donte greene were the next carmelo...

I love looking at the young talent that keeps coming in. It used to seem like they just had a few stars and a weak bench for years and years. For the last few years, they seem to have 9 or 10 solid players to start the season, and we fans get concerned about getting enough playing time for everyone. (Like Jones last year.) This year, I think Jones will get his chance and it's Southerland, Waiters & Fair I hope get enough PT. Next year, there are 3 great freshmen coming in, plus Riley will be recovered. This happened 2 years ago, where I was worried about having too many great players....then Flynn went NBA early and Harris & Devo did not return. So, I guess it will all work itself out.

its almost tipoff ... Good luck this year Orange

Good Luck Orange in the final ex game. Then it is on to regular season OOC play with UNI. Take it to em Cuse.

Dion Waiters will be a stud for us, mark my words, lets just hope he stays and isn't one and done to the nba, cuz he has a lot potential, and will gain a great deal of experience playing in the Big East.
