Big surprise a person from or lives in NEw York is a duke fan. 

K doesn't develop big men and it baffles me how elite NBA prospect bigs continue to go there. He wants bigs that only set screens for his wings to do all the scoring. 

We don't have much options outside of Syracuse to root for. I guess St. Bonaventure, Buffalo or Niagara.

I have to agree with you on this,  mainly because he doesn't let them play.  I feel like Bolden could be more then a bench warmer if he let him play big. Jeter has gotten worse since last year. His leash is too short sometimes.

Bolden's conditioning isn't where it needs to be I don't think. He can't get up and down the floor in transition. If you look at the games were he has logged significant minutes off the bench, it has been vs teams that are big and don't run the floor.

Jeter showed some improvement early this year, but then underwent a mysterious herniated disk surgery in January...which I still question if it even happened. He was back supporting the team quick and jumping around on the bench. Apparently he is well enough to play already but can't find the minutes.

But I agree, he can't seem to develop bigs. The fact Jefferson never developed a mid-range jump shot still irks me. 

One guy I wish he would give more time to is Jack White from Australia. The kid can shoot it.

    • No poo tho you might could Jenkins for Legette. They got nothing at WR after the big 2 in Cincy. I don’t think you trade away OL depth. Could get a quality player in cuts. Really that 3-4 end spot what you should be looking for is someone who is stout with long arms and can push back the OL in both the run and pass game for others to make plays…. But we signed Wharton, sometimes I think Evero is a fraud ass nerd who should be an analyst at best.
    • you would honestly probably do Monroe Freeling more of a disservice by putting him in a position where is not yet ready to succeed. .we all knew Monroe Freeling struggled at the NFL combine in drills because of technique related issues & would need time to develop  & now all of a sudden before they even put the pads on Monroe Freeling is somehow a starting LT in the NFL ? if he struggled at the NFL scouting combine what do you actually think is going to happen in a live NFL game at LT ? .even our best LT of all time was not ready to start at LT when he was a rookie & he turned out to be a pretty good darn LT by the name of Jordan Gross ...just saying be patient Young Jedis
    • well i could go on & on but i will just highlight it by saying big difference trust me from the SEC & NFL.it's honestly like comparing apples & oranges especially when you are talking about a  LT. in the NFL you are going up against the most athletic freaks of nature the world has to offer . .the NFL also has much more exotic & complicated defensive schemes than what they are used to seeing at Georgis &  finally but most importantly you have to learn how to master complex bio mechanics where the body kick steps instantly as a reaction to these world class athletes rush without really making a conscious effort it's more of a learned muscle memory  & it can take thousands upon thousands of reps to master rproper technique for a LT in the NFL especially if you are still very raw like Monroe Freeling is    ...just saying
