It's Andre Jackson Day

[whaler11]

He's not 100% right about jack. But it's nice to see the Fellowship of the Miserable sticking together.

its best you guys keep tryibg to convince yourselves that you can create an alternate reality.

because your thoughts and opinions are completely misaligned with actual reality

 

[NJHoops]

We told Andre that he would get playing time. Imagine that for your Sales Pitch

Right? Andre gave 15 reasons why he chose UConn. Imagine latching on to a single one, just because it fits part of the narrative one wants to create.

Especially when that narrative requires the assumption that Jackson was afraid of being stuck behind Joe Girard and Buddy Boeheim.

Hopefully Hurley will be the whoarange worst nightmare.

Good God. Can we clean it up here mods??? That language is gonna make our ad revenue tank

You do know that you and your other Fellowship members have brought your self-important misery to a thread that celebrates the BB team getting a top recruit. So you all can stick it in your respective hats. And most people here know the score even if they choose not to be as relentlessly one-note as you about it.

Is anyone else bummed that Syracuse locked their Jackson thread?

You can guess what it said. Dre picked UConn because UConn is so lousy he can walk in and be put in the starting line up. Dre was afraid to compete with all the talent at Syracuse. He can't shoot. He not really very good. Blah. Blah. Blah.

Jackson said Hurley has made no promises to him about playing time as a freshman, only that it’s available if he works for it. All indications are that Jackson is likely to earn those minutes.

“I hit Cliff up and told him to come by. If he chooses UConn, he does. I’m not going to force him,” Jackson said with a smile.

Oh I read the entire thread lol, I was refreshing that as often as the boneyard thread. I’m sad they locked it after he picked because we were about to watch them face the facts. The infighting was about to begin and it was gonna be fun

Haha much of that had already begun when AJ decided not to show up with Isaiah Jackson at Cuse last weekend and instead showed up at our first weekend of practice. Reality set in and sad faces abounded.

I know, they had a lot of crow to eat and I was looking forward to it.

Looks like we may have something here,

The current state of recruiting in this program

Ok the lets address the elephant in the room. It’s clear that we are not recruiting an ACC level. We play in the best basketball conference in the country. We have top notch facilities, fan base, and coaching. Now that that we lost our last two targets to them, is anyone here not pissed off...

A kid who likes coach Sal is exactly the type of kid you want on your team. Kids who want to be challenged are rare.

One thing they said was that Jackson will play 30 minutes a game. In their context, I think they were trying to throw shade. But if it ends up coming true it will mean he's a player.

I enjoyed the part of that thread where the one guy names all the 4 and 5 star guys Cuse has missed on in the last four years and the other guy says “imagine if they all came to SU. It would be hard to imagine not winning a championship.”

Yupppp, and if I proposed marriage to Gigi Hadid, Nicole Scherzinger, Emily Ratajkowski, Margot Robbie, Rihanna, Chrissy Teigen, Olivia Culpo, Irina Shayk, Jasmine Tookes, Emilia Clarke and Adriana Lima and none of them rejected me either, it would also be very easy to imagine me doing a lot of winning, too.

 

[formerlurker]

I’ll gladly continue this conversation face to face at the next football game. If you even go to those.

Was kind of looking forward to this, GC.

Maybe he'll still show up.

Sounds like a Schiff tactic

 

[Travelman6]

That face you get when you realize that not only are you just about at the start of another brutal Syracuse winter, but you just lost out to Uconn for another prized recruit.

Or was it his mom who liked/LOVED Sal? LOL

Update: They’ve locked this one now, too. Apparently negativity- or realism, depending on your viewpoint- is not allowed on that board.

I'm very old (51). I've heard of Rihanna, Emilia Clarke and Adriana Lima. That's it.

I'm older than you and I've heard of all of them. Hmmm, not sure what that says about me! Most of them are models and/or swimsuit models in SI. Olivia Culpo is from RI and was Miss Universe. She dated former Patriot Danny Amendola.
