Again. This is micks job. It is what he signed up for and gets paid a large sum of money for.

Sometimes you gotta swim in the muddy waters to get the big fish. Mick would rather fish for blue gill in a clear lake.

We're not North Carolina or Duke. If we get caught, we'll get hammered and Mick knows that. I find it refreshing that he's building the program the right way.

Building? He's had the job for over 10 years and he's got one conference title and one sweet sixteen. That isn't building, its stagnant. I like Mick, I just think he needs to change his strategy. Mick isn't suddenly gonna become a coaching wizard after all this time so he's gotta upgrade talent.

Perhaps the kid is a head case, or a locker room cancer, or a guy who has no interest in the classroom....we thankfully steer clear of those.

I'm fine with the kinds of players Mick is bringing in.

Wow. He would seem to be a big time addition if true.

This is exactly the kind of player we need to compensate for our relatively underwhelming 2017 class. I would be thrilled if we get Bazley.

I pray that Mick is finally able to start reeling in more 4/5 star players every year after our arena upgrade. It also doesn't hurt that we added Wichita State to the conference... it's nowhere near the level of joining the ACC, but it's a positive development. If Chris Mack is able to do it in both the A10 and (fake) Big East, Mick Cronin should be able to do it in the AAC with superior facilities. No excuses, just get it done.

WHAT? How did he get crystal balled if Mick didn't even bother recruiting him? I mean, I don't know if Mick really did recruit him or not - just based on the complaints on this board I was under the impression that Mick just held open hours at his office and never bothered to actively talk to recruits.

You forget your password, crex043? 03-lmfao

I saw the post count of 9 and figured you either forgot your password, or someone is flattering you with imitation.

No... I've not made any changes to my account and I didn't forget my password. I log on from computer and phone and I've seen issues recently where my post count would reset but then I'd get back on later and it'd fix itself. Not sure what is going on.

I can assure you this is not a Duane / Not Duane situation. I stand firmly behind my annoying persona.

See? It's back now! I just checked it one minute ago.

EDIT: Actually I think the phone app CSNbbs is using a different account to post. This wasn't happening until just now.

Mick is a stealth recruiter. He swooped into nyc in the awakening of spring and grabbled Lance Stephenson. Beware the man behind the shadows.

Evans, Cumberland, and Washington are all four star recruits on ESPN, with Cumberland and Washington being rated as top 100 in their respective classes. Cronin is certainly a good recruiter who knows how to get the job done if he wants someone

I agree, i'm actually curious to see if the new arena upgrade provides a spark as well. It cannot hurt.

Quote:Princeton basketball standout Darius Bazley verbally commits to Syracuse

Quote:“The most important thing to me is just making sure I go to the right place and the right fit for developing me to the NBA because that’s my goal,” Bazley told WCPO. “I don’t want to sell myself short or make any bad moves and then have to transfer because this isn’t working out or that’s not working out. I don’t think (it matters) where I play at or how far it is -- I don’t care if it’s in Alaska -- if it’s a good fit that’s where I am headed.”

It's early, but based on these offers Mick seems to be shooting for higher rated guys maybe with the new arena?
