OT: Zion Cruz to DePaul

[Hey Adrien!]

Nice work by Stubblefield!

 

[bendm]

wow that's great. he had crystal balls for auburn. certainly took his time.

 

[gsmooth]

Stubblefield will get DePaul back to some high quality ball. They are ahead of schedule right now. Don’t get fooled by DePaul’s record, they are a tough win. You won’t see too many blowouts against them if you look at their games

 

[Jaydumo20]

Depaul getting good is the best thing for all

 

[metsfan2323]

I would love to see DePaul rise again the way Houston has, it would be great for the conference. Stubblefield seems to be legit.

 

[djct1999]

Great get. This is like the eighth time now that we said DePaul will be back. At this point, I will believe it when I see it.

 

[SouthBayHusky]

Yup. Depaul is no slouch this year, no longer the conf doormat

 

[AntG168]

Great get

St. Johns would be even better. I think they have a really good coach. They just need some recruits.

 

[UconnU]

What a great land for them.

 

[superjohn]

Donda Academy, Kanye's going to be at DePaul games.

Donda Academy, Kanye's going to be at DePaul games.

good call. I hadn’t thought about that but yeah the whole Donda setup is potentially a big boon for DePaul

 

[Hey Adrien!]

good call. I hadn’t thought about that but yeah the whole Donda setup is potentially a big boon for DePaul

Especially since Kanye is a Chicago guy.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Great get. This is like the eighth time now that we said DePaul will be back. At this point, I will believe it when I see it.

They're 109 in KenPom and 112 in NET this year, so not a punching bag. If they can consistently be a top-100 team, that would be great for the conference. Hopefully Georgetown and Butler can get back to some of their past performance as well too.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

It's a big if, but IF Javon Freeman-Liberty uses his extra year of eligibility then DePaul could be very good next year.

He would be the fifth year stud, Jalen Terry and David Jones would be juniors and Cruz would be a heck of a 2 guard/wing off the bench.

[elmcityboy]

wow. syracuse board is melting down about this. good for stubblefield if it's true!

 

[superjohn]

Wow, Stubblefield is getting it done. This was the one recruit Cuse actually thought they would get. Stubblefield just reeled in the #38 recruit and the #53 recruit in the country.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

 

[PNolanFan]

I think if depaul was in the ACC this year they would be a 5/6 seed in their conference tournament and would be on the bubble

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

wow. syracuse board is melting down about this. good for stubblefield if it's true!

Mintz was speculated as the "pretty good recruit" visiting Syracuse during a tweeted excerpt of Boeheim expressing displeasure when he was asked if he was going to retire.

[August_West]

Please make it true.

 

[bendm]

247 lists him as committed to depaul as well

 

[BGesus4]

4 MORE YEARS! 4 MORE YEARS!
