Akok 'Cuse/Pitt Visits

[DonaldDraper]

Maybe just chill out, guy.

Syracuse would be a good place to “chill” out. Syracuse is one of the snowiest places in the country. Average annual snowfall is over 10 feet. Storrs CT comes in at just under 3 feet. We’re talking a Hilton Unit MORE snow in Syracuse...

Just punched “why is Syracuse so terrible” into google and my phone started smoking. Wow you have to give credit to JB as that is not an easy place to recruit kids to attend:

Syracuse named one of the 'worst cities for black Americans' to live

Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo all rank among the worst U.S. cities to live in

How to Decimate a City

Why is Upstate NY so snowy, expensive and poor? Most popular questions people ask

Syracuse poverty rate remains among highest in the nation

That was a sample from the first page of results.

Try Hartford... Storrs will just give you no result at all.

I mean I want akok as much as the next guy! But if we’re going head to head against Cuse I’m not sure we’re the best school to be grandstanding on the appeal of our location.

FTFY

Apparently Goodine is there too.

Speaking of location, is there a reason why we don't have any neutral site games in Boston?

It would be unfair to our Boston-area opponent.

 

[Block C]

Yikes, they are even bringing it on the Syracuse pizza front. Really though, they locked the other threads and I spent a good 10 minutes on these, so I had to use them.View attachment 35401

Not as good as UConn cake

Would be nice for fans, the players, and recruits.

Syracuse much worse than Roch and Buff ... just take it easy on WNY they are CNY ... BIG diff!

For PC, definitely MSG and probably Mohegan but Boston not out of the question.

Yes, we are.

Have you talked to any out-of-staters who have visited Storrs lately? I have and universally people love it. That's anecdotal but 100% accurate as to what I've been hearing.

Dude you are so earning your handle in this thread!

Very true. Buffalo was really dumpy for a while but it has bounced back. Weather is only horrid south of the city. Rochester can actually be nice but the weather is still gloomy . But not as bad as Syracuse. Syracuse is dumpy and deteriorating. It is gloomy and more snowy than Rochester. Just awful.

By the way, has anyone told Akok that Boeheim is so old that he pees his pants?

Hey be nice to him. He "almost" won 2 other titles.

 

[Waquoit]

Reading the tea leaves it all makes sense. Looks to me like the player wants to come to UConn and those close to him are saying just wait a second see what else is out there. Perhaps he'll come out of this weekend realizing that these other visits are just a waste of his time.

 

[JCSuperstar]

This visit can't end soon enough

Sure mentioning those naps. Wonder if Hurley and co. Showed the youthful exuberance a big recruit may appreciate. My heart turning as I’m thinking he may like the school but feels the coach has better ways to pick his time.
