Re: Return Of The Orange 08-09
You really think all 5 of your starters will be back? I'm no Syracuse expert, but personally, I highly doubt it.

Well there are 4 departure risks (Flynn, Greene, Harris, Devendorf)... but I do think all will be coming back. Greene's value went down as the season progressed.

Re: Return Of The Orange 08-09
Syracuse is bad. They're not making the tournament this year. And I wouldn't be so happy that this team returns all of its players:
Donte Green: Homeless man's Kevin Durant. He camps out on the perimeter, hates contact and needs 20 shots to score 20 points. After watching him play I am so happy he didn't come to G'town. He's just so hatable. He's definitely leaving and will be a pick in the teens by some dumb GM.
Paul Harris: Is he not the dumbest player who gets significant minutes for a BCS conference team? Find me another player with a lower basketball IQ. What a bust he's been. He's playing the wrong sport in my opinion.
Eric Devendorf: Coming off a torn ACL. Sure he improved but how can you be excited about this guy? Lets see how he comes off the injury
Jonny Flynn: Ok he is pretty good but I can't get over his dumb shots in close games. The guy has confidence and is a great facilitator but come on. Lets execute better in important games late.
Also - if memory serves me correct - wasn't this the rallying cry of last year's Orange fans? "Wait until next year." Lets face it boys, Boeheim needs to recruit smarter players and then try to make the tournament. This team's collective basketball IQ is scary low. Boeheim is an amazing coach (he's the only guy who I can say clearly outcoaches Thompson III pretty much every time) but his recruiting lately has been shaky.
The fact that two years in a row you're probably going to miss the tournament makes me happy, I'm not going to lie. If you guys get good players you beat Georgetown by 20 each time.
