Syracuse happiest fan.

@HuskyHoopsCtrl @newyorkgrooovee @NYPost_Brazille Donnie was horrifically bad at sharing the ball terrible defense no motor and he couldn’t play without his back turned to the hoop which allowed for easy double teams and him picking up his dribble killing sets. It’s not ovb all his fault but you can’t do that

@SyracuseHatesW @newyorkgrooovee @NYPost_Brazille I’m not one to defend SJU… He got up out of Syracuse for obvious reasons and Kentucky definitely didn’t let him walk

A couple of great quotes from Donnie Freeman in @NYPost_Brazille article on his commitment to St. John’s. On playing for Rick Pitino: “Knowing Pitino isn’t going to cut me any slack. It’s going to be tough. It’s going to be hard physically and mentally. Knowing how much better I’ll get and what this can do for my future, how much better of a player this can make me, I’m willing to make that sacrifice and be all in and buy into everything.” On his desire to win: “There’s one thing I’ve been wanting more than anything and that’s winning. I want to win meaningful games. I want to get back to winning. Before I got into college, I won everywhere I’d been. I won championships. I want to start with that. I want to build on that. And to show everybody I can win and produce at the same time.” #SJUBB

@HuskyHoopsCtrl @newyorkgrooovee @NYPost_Brazille He stuck around long enough to hear ur not getting more money then went on the visit to Kentucky they said yeah we aren’t giving you 3 mil then he tried a UConn phone call and Dan said we can make this simple if it’s abt the money (which it was) we can’t give you that much.

@newyorkgrooovee @HuskyHoopsCtrl @NYPost_Brazille lol Syracuse, Kentucky, Alabama and others let him walk he isn’t worth the price tag Syracuse played better when he wasn’t on the court

@HuskyHoopsCtrl @NYPost_Brazille 100%. You can tell he genuinely wants to win & reach his potential.

We can say what we want about red being a bad coach, but my god if Gmac is supposedly getting that much more NIL than Red did and this is the roster we have, At least Red could recruit and retain. We better pray some commits start to fall in line or this is could be a long season

@FriarsCapital Yeah ridiculous I don’t know who would pay for it, I think teams are starting to realize he isn’t worth the money I’m assuming he wants around 2-3 million maybe more

@SyracuseHatesW We don’t want him, lol. Just stating he’s either SJU or Kentucky bound. Hiding very obvious shit behind a paywall is the most On3 thing ever

It’s St. John’s and Kentucky guys

@ThaaFRANchise He’d quit basketball if he played for pitino he’d get chewed out first practice, he doesn’t hustle cries when he gets doubled teamed and plays lackluster defense

Playing for Rick Pitino is exactly what he needs. Would easily get him into the first round of the draft next year.

@ThaaFRANchise Feel like I’ve been hearing from people for the past two weeks that we’re waiting to announce guys and then no announcement of any real weight or significance comes out I hope it does for everyone’s sake

@SyracuseHatesW If the roster looks like this in 2 weeks I’ll agree with you. But more players will be added. Judge then.

Friendly reminder that the portal opened 2 weeks later this year. Also the portal isn’t even closed yet more guys will be entering. These takes are premature everyone needs to relax.

If you look at Syracuse’s roster height and weight it’s pretty obvious what GMAC is looking to return… Syracuse will run a suffocating zone and rely on size over skill atleast for this year

@BigYapman75837 Has there been a date set? Cuse always travels fairly well if it’s on a weekend or Friday people will 100 percent make the trip including myself fill it up with both teams little bit of a taste of the glory days

@SyracuseHatesW Needs to be a good game Will cuse fans make the trip?

I’ll also just leave this here for Providence and any other team in the big east not including UConn. Once again there is levels to this.

@BigYapman75837 Having Syracuse and PC be good would make for a fun game at TD

@SyracuseHatesW Solid pickup They have a decent squad, just haven’t seen anyone that makes me say “wow he’s gonna set a new standard for their program” Definitely a tournament potential roster tho

@BigYapman75837 Yeah will see I think Providence will get the guys they want Syracuse NEEDS and PG and a Center hopefully the ball starts rolling a little for both

@PCFriarFaithful Yes objectively by every metric ever created Syracuse is the more superior program and it’s not close hope this helps!

Fans of the 8th ranked team on this list would look you dead in the face after losing out on Hodgson (Friar) and landing Garwey Dual (Friar) as their best transfer and say they are a better program than Providence

@BigYapman75837 Syracuse just landed the temple guard average 16 a game so there’s that

@SyracuseHatesW I don’t see Cuse being a top 15 transfer portal class It’s uneven now because of the # of players that have been grabbed Pate and Byrd are both substantially better than anyone Cuse has grabbed I do think Cuse will be top 20-25 portal class tho

@BigYapman75837 6 final fours if we wanna go by stats that’s TRIPLE providences

@SyracuseHatesW “From the plumber era” 3/5 of your final 4s r from that same era🥀

@BigYapman75837 3 of ur best players left that are ranked top 50 in the portal, it’s ealry for both SU and Providence both will land talent i expect both to be within the top 15-10 in transfer portal class

@SyracuseHatesW Not hypotheticals at all We know Providence budget is better We know Hodgson is a better coach thus far I’ll give u talent, even tho Providence clearly already taking the lead

@BigYapman75837 So Syracuse has been to two finals fours in the past 13 years and you’ve been 2 in your entire existence from the plumber era lmao

@SyracuseHatesW Syracuse has been to 5 finals 4s in their programs existence Providence has been to 2 If the criteria for “notable” is a national championship Then Syracuse has been notable 1 time decades ago

@BigYapman75837 We’ve been to 6 final fours and 3 national championship games keep dreaming boss ur a bottom feeders of a shit conference other UConn and Nova and ST John’s

@BigYapman75837 Again hypotheticals lmao you haven’t won anything so it doesn’t matter the future hasn’t happened yet ur celebrating it

@SyracuseHatesW Providence vs Syracuse Head coach: Providence Talent on roster: Providence Budget: Providence Could rly care less about what happens in 2003 We live in 2026, and in 2026, Providence is positioned for success and Syracuse isn’t
