Shabazz Muhammad Would Appreciate It If Syracuse Would Say Hi

Stay connected for news and updates

Small forward Shabazz Muhammad is rated by most as the No. 2 overall prospect in the 2012 Class after Nerlens Noel. The McDonald's All-American has offers on the table from Kentucky, Duke, Kansas and UCLA to name a few, though some consider him a lock for the Bruins.

Any other year, Syracuse might have an offer out to Shabazz as well. Unfortunately for him, the Orange are pretty locked up. They already filled their two open spots with DaJuan Coleman and Jerami Grant. When Mookie Jones left the team that opened up one spot, which, coupled with SU recruit Nerlens Noel's reclassification to 2012, meant that the No. 1 recruit in the nation was the top choice for it.

All of which seemed to be irking the hell out of Shabazz this past weekend (assuming this is a real FB profile):

It's unclear if the Las Vegas native is a huge Cuse fan or if he's just having a tantrum because Syracuse hasn't shown interest in him as the No. 2 recruit in the nation. The fact that the Orange decided to offer Grant over him might also be seen as a slight, but clearly Boeheim and his staff see something in Jerami and, let's face it, are you going to second-guess their recruiting from the last few years?

Not much will come of this, I'm sure, unless we play whatever team Muhammad ends up on.

H/T: Jeremy
