well, don't Mess with Texas' Team-The Mountain Eagles!


Anyways for that C I would advise not to get a 32 yo.............get a young one.

27 yo should be fine but he will cost you a bank full............be prepared. BUT if you pay for a 27 yo he will benefit you more in the future then a 34 yo would.

all in all, don't purchase any of them oldies, they will bite you in the future.

I was planning on shooting for the 27-30 range. He will be an integral part of getting us to D.IV, but upgrades will be needed once we get there. Im trying to do just enough to get into promotion range, while not spending too much money. And I was planning on training Karanwal as a SG/SF, but I have a shot at getting him on the Indian U21 team at PF so I have to re-evaluate my training plan.

Orangemen down WWIAFTM 72-59

In the season finale at the Carrier Dome, the Orangemen put on a show, winning handily behind strong efforts from PG Jorge Landry and Ekaraj Karanwal. Landry poured in 20 pts, while Karanwal had 16 pts and 15 boards. This will be the last look at this version of you Orangemen, as ownership has stated that many new faces will be brought in this offseason. Head coach Jim Boeheim commented on the search for the next stars of Syracuse

"Well we have had some difficulties finding Americans that are a good fit, but we are going to try to hold fast to our commitment to build from within our backyard. We ask that fans be patient, because we are working tirelessly to put a quality product out there."

One of the bigger stories this offseason will be the impact of the falling out of Karanwal with the staff. Last week Karanwal stormed out of a practice, and commented later that Boeheim had made it very clear that Karanwal was not a part of the Orangemen's plan going forward. The Orange Times will be keeping a close eye on this as it develops, as well as draft news and free agency acquisitions

Davis Miller

The Orangemen would like to announce the signing of SF Davis Miller! Miller is the first acquisition in the promised shake-up by management. The 6'2" American spent last season playing in a reserve role for an Irish club. The versatile swingman adds versatilty and scoring to a lineup that had trouble scoring last season. Although his numbers were low in his 7 seasons in Ireland, he was a backup for the large majority. The last time he started for an American team, he averaged 16 pts and 7 boards and shot over 42% both seasons. His skills have only improved since and he is expected to be a force in the lineup for the forseeable future in Syracuse. He will be getting help soon, promises coach Jim Boeheim. As to who the Orangemen are targeting, that remains a tightly kept secret, but Boeheim has always liked having experienced floor generals, so the Times would not be surprised to see efforts to bring a pass-first PG into the fold!

Charlie Figueroa

The Syracuse Orangemen continue to wheel and deal, signing young PG Charlie Figueroa to a multi year deal today. The soon-to-be 19 yr old Figueroa played his rookie season left high school for a season in Hong Kong, but is eager to return home and be a part of the making of America's Team. The staff was impressed with the young guards quick developement while in Hong Kong, and his size and wide array of skills make him a tough man to guard. Boeheim commented on the signing:
"Well he's such a raw product, but he showed so much improvement over the season overseas, and if he continues to develop that way, we expect a lot from the kid. We had our eye on a few older guards, but when Figueroa became available we just couldnt pass up the opportunity."
Figueroa figures to slot in as the starting PG immediately and team with Davis Miller leading the new-look Syracuse Orangemen next season.
