Syracuse basketball has finally made a splash in the transfer portal, landing Oregon State shooting guard Nate Kingz earlier today.

SU Needs Another Star Guard. Could It Be Desmond Claude?
The first few weeks of the transfer portal being open have made it pretty clear how I think Adrian Autry and his staff need to attack it. I don’t think the Orange should put a lot of money towards a true center. I also think that this team desperately needs to focus on star power and…

Syracuse Shouldn’t Spend On A Center

Could Nate Kingz Be Syracuse’s Next Sharpshooter?
The last few years for Syracuse basketball have been very odd offensively compared to the end of the Boeheim era. Three-point shooting has been a big issue for the ‘Cuse.

Star Power or Depth? SU’s Transfer Portal Strategy
The current iteration of college athletics makes absolutely no sense. Is it better than it was before when players were stuck at a school and made no money? Probably.

Poll: Syracuse Is Not New York’s Basketball Team
It’s officially everyone’s favorite time of the year: March.

How SU’s opponents could fare in the NCAA Tournament
To just about no one’s surprise, Syracuse was BAD against NCAA Tournament teams this past season. The Orange faced off against eight different teams that begin dancing this week.

As someone whos loved college sports their entire life, this piece hurts me to write. JJ Starling was the perfect transfer to Syracuse. A five star from Central New York is a must get for the Orange.
