As usual, The Fizz has been all over the recruiting scene for you this semester. We had¬†Trevor Cooney’s official commitment, spoken with Michael Carter-Williams on the FizzCast and lauded the Murphkins team on acquiring Rakeem Christmas, a Top-10 center for the class of ’11.
So when early signing period arrived last week, we had our ducks in a row. Michael, Rakeem, and Trevor.
Jim Boeheim threw us a fastball yesterday.
The official press release came out, and everyone was stunned when Michael Carter-Williams wasn’t on the list. Had he dropped his verbal? Was he waiting for the late signing period?
We may never know. But fear not, Orange faithful. Murphkins covered it’s losses with “Marcus Carter-Williams.” Any questions, direct them to Google’s Cache. Mistaken identity causes internet chaos.
According to Marcus’ Facebook page,¬†there’s nothing there. He keeps his page private, but I’m pretty sure he’s thirty years old.
Michael, however, is ranked the #16 recruit by Rivals.com. In fact, by hauling in both Mike and Christmas, the Orange grab two of the Top-20 commits in the nation.
Jerry Meyer of Rivals gives this breakdown of the two players:
“Christmas is one of the better shot-blockers in the class, runs the floor well and is a solid rebounder. Over the past couple years he has shown flashes of offensive prominence, but he hasn’t developed as a consistent offensive threat. If he were to develop into more of a consistent offensive threat, he could very well move into the top 10 in the final Rivals150.
Carter-Williams is a smooth ballhandler and crafty, multidimensional scorer with a high basketball IQ. The key for Carter-Williams being an impact player at the next level is developing his physical strength. Right now he is very thin and it will be tough for him to put up numbers in the Big East as a freshman unless he builds up his body.”
In other words, time for SU sports information to get Mike’s name right. Could be seeing a lot of this kid in the postgame notes.

Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
Hi! I’ve been reading your website for a while now and finally got the bravery to go ahead and give you a shout out from Austin Texas! Just wanted to tell you keep up the excellent work!

Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a forty foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
This web site has some really helpful specifics of it! We appreciate you informing me.
Right now it looks like WordPress is the best blogging platform out there right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?

When you declare war on journalists and the journalism profession, it shows the contempt you have for the people who put food on your table. Linus, your salary of Sh2.5 million comes from these people you have no respect for. Any media house, NMG included, is driven by what journalists write. NMG would not be what it is today were it not for us. Instead of appreciating the contribution we have made – we daily put our lives on the line to bring food to your table and other managers who have also shown contempt for us – you opted to rubbish the foot soldiers who are your pillars in the high office.
Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.
I am constantly browsing online for ideas that can help me. Thanks!
Hello! I could have sworn I’ve been to this website before but after checking through some of the post I realized it’s new to me. Nonetheless, I’m definitely glad I found it and I’ll be bookmarking and checking back often!
I’m not sure exactly why but this blog is loading very slow for me. Is anyone else having this problem or is it a issue on my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering what all is needed to get set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% certain. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Kudos
several thanks for telling!. “Truth is typically the very best vindication against slander.” by Abraham Lincoln..
