  1. Representing the league? Get out of here aggy
  2. System still plays a role. Would a lesser coach like Shaka gotten as much out of them?
  3. I disagree to some extent. The 2003-2009 era teams were all fun to watch and well balanced on offense. It seems like hindsight or selective memory to not have enjoyed watching Ford, Augustin, Durant, PJ Tucker, and Aldridge on offense. Obviously the offenses declined over time into a slower, ball control version of what we did before, which is why it wasn't fun. But go back and watch the 2003 Elite 8 and Final Four games, and y'all will see what I mean.
  4. Given the number of upsets, we should keep Shaka Smart. It’s clearly not his fault. /s
  5. Can someone explain how Syracuse seemingly surprises teams every year with the same zone defense and 3 point shooting offense?
  6. Does it help if we relatively overpay Ivey? Possibly a dumb question, but are these guys able to handle the admin/recruiting tasks at a big program (even one where basketball isn’t #1)?
  7. I watch a lot of UH basketball and have friends who work with the team. The difference between Sampson and Shaka has been night and day for years. Sampson puts them into contention every year with a bunch of scrubs. Because he develops so well, it’s somehow next man up even with injuries and no depth. Shaka has never developed like that
  8. He mentors young black coaches and is a friend to all
  9. I’d take the first four but don’t like Musselman.
  10. Let’s just hire Boeheim and his zone defense /s
  11. A six year extension with a poison pill? Yeah, we are.
  12. We missed our chance to get Beard. If we wanted him, it had to be before the extension he got in 2019.
  13. It’s not even close. The Shaka as a great recruiter narrative isn’t backed up by the data or the eye test.
  14. Kevin Durant, DJ Augustin, TJ Ford, Avery Bradley, among many others versus Greg Brown, Matt Coleman, and Mo Bamba. Shaka is not a better recruiter than Barnes. Just watch what will happen next year. It certainly can’t be called a reload under Shaka
  15. Paging @closetojumping
  16. Sampson is great for UH, but it’s a nonstarter. He has a rap sheet.
  17. Shaka better be left on the tarmac if we lose this game
  18. I don’t know why Shaka loves Ramey so much
