Adonis De La Rosa,

[SI1996]

@AdamZagoria: 2014 big man Adonis Delarosa is working on a visit to Pitt this week, he tells @SNYtv. A big target for St. John's, is set to announce 4/18

Great, now he gets told how superior the ACC is to the Big East, especially following the NCAA and NIT disasters, and especially to team that seems to be in chaos. If he is, in fact, ours to lose, it looks like we're doing our best to do just that.

Be shocked if he is NOT a Johnnie. Shocked!

Anyone else coming along with him?

Dick Hurtz, 6-6 small forward...Helluva 3pt shooter but always seems to be bent over in pain...

No just kidding at this point just keep an eye on some de-commitments.

Is that the kid from Strokin, IL?

Bangor, ME I think. His cousin plays tight end, his name is Phil McCracken....

Release the McCracken!

Superior ACC ? One team to the sweet 16. Remember in the beginning of the season ? All the headlines...."The Best Conference Ever " haha- Duke, Cuse, Caroina, Pitt bounced early as Nova and Creighton. One team left, big deal.

@NYPost_Brazille: With Pittsburgh and Barry Rohrssen making play for Christ the King's Adonis Delarosa not sure he is sure thing to wind up at St. John's

 

[cappy105]

Pitt is going in an opposite direction. Yes they are in ACC but will be mediocre in two years.

Like Capt. Renault (Claude Rains) was shocked there was gambling in Casablanca?

Second time I've heard that analogy this week.

And the BE has how many in the Sweet Sixteen?

What do you base that theory on? Pitt hasn't been mediocre in years and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Don't be jealous.

If we lose him to Pitt, we can always go with a five guard offense if Jones and Obekpa were to foul out.

Pitt is going in an opposite direction. Yes they are in ACC but will be mediocre in two years.

And we're not? In fact, the way it looks now, we'll be mediocre next year.

Edit: Deleted a double posting. Mea culpa.

Not much more mediocre than this year has been

Opposite direction of what?

 

[cappy105]

lol, no not comparing us to Pitt, just Pitt of the future to Pitt of the past. They will never top the ACC. They will end up in the basement with BC, and Va Tech. Trust me.

 

[MBoutchatski]

whats the buzz re: where this kid will land? how realistic of a chance do we have?


I really know nothing about his abilities, but he's a big body and we need that.

 

[redken]

Per Mitch Abramson of the NY Daily News:

"St. John’s — once high up on his list but a no-show at the state Federation tournament in Albany when the Royals won a second straight title last weekend — has now slipped behind the others, the 18-year-old said."

Anyone still shocked if we don't sign him?

 

[SJUhoopNUT]

What is going on here?

 

[mkras99]

Very odd. Hard to find a valid reason for no one from the staff making the trip up.

 

[SJUISBACK]

What is going on here?

What is going on here? THE SHIP IS F`ING SINKING.
Get rid of this guy, now our only recruit who everyone says is a sure hit, now has us behind other teams.
Hooper and Greene might be transferring, never know with CO.
So WTF is this clown??? In L.A at the FOX studios?

Seriously are you kidding me? But yeah some of you people still want this guy here, it was: "let this season play out", guess now we should let his contract play out?
The sooner he goes, the better. Even if it means eating two years on his contract.

How can even the Lavin backers keep defending him if we lose Adonis with him in L.A???
