    NCAA Elite Eight Games for March 27

    Don't disagree and I hope it's a good game. Moore is confirmed out - not sure how Nova will keep up with the speed of Kansas - stinks that a last minute injury could have such an impact...not to mention it stinks that Nova is clearly a better program than Syracuse since we left the Big East -...

    NCAA Sweet Sixteen Games for March 24

    Buddy suspended for Duke

    The craziest thing about this whole situation is if you had asked me who in all of college basketball would be least likely to be suspended for throwing a punch - it would be the ever smiling Buddy Boeheim...feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone...

    Postgame Thoughts… Villanova

    Benny at this point appears to be more of a project recruit than a big time recruit - could dominate as an athlete in HS - on offense at the college level he is a complete project - and tough to play great in a zone as a freshman...

    Big East Basketball

    Miss it - I know we needed to move to the ACC for our football and overall money etc - but our football program is mediocre and our basketball program may have actually been better if we stayed in the current Big East - Nova is a better program than SU at the current time - The Big East is...

    32 years ago….

    If only Sherman had redshirted his freshman year while the Pearl ruled the court. If he had been on that 89-90 team, we would have been the favorites to win the National Championship - oh what a team that would have been! Even with Michael Edwards we started the year at 10-0. With the General...

    NCAA National Championship: Monday April 5

    This game showing why it's so hard to go undefeated - Zags not playing up to their capability and you simply cannot do that against the other best team in the nation - Baylor getting the job done thus far...

    Roy Williams Retiring / UNC hires Hubert Davis

    This is an historic hire - best of luck to Davis except of course when playing Syracuse :) None of the blue bloods of college basketball — Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina or Duke — is led by a Black coach, and just one (Kentucky under Tubby Smith) has ever employed a Black coach

    Jimmy Jackson

    I'll never forget watching Kenny Anderson score 50 easy points in an Empire State game - if he comes to Syracuse we win the National Championship - the only thing we lacked on that team was a PG - it would have been glorious...

    Postgame Thoughts... Houston (NCAAT)

    Bummer but when Rutgers blew it down the stretch it meant we were going to get unlucky with a team that was a bad matchup for us. Throw in a bad night for the team and also JB and it got away from us. All the credit to Houston and thanks to the team for the last few weeks of fun basketball! I...

    19 threes?

    Was that a record in 3 pointers given up by Syracuse - Virginia had 18 - 19 may be the new record. Amazing we won by double figures regardless!

    Class of 2022 PG Dior Johnson (NY / CA)

    I have not had the time to read through this thread. But it's hard for me to get excited about a guy this far out - if he was a 2020 recruit sure. But there is so much time between this commitment and him actually suiting up for Cuse that I think it's more likely than not that we never see him...

    Buddy's game

    Wow - we all know Buddy's weaknesses - but he just had one of the greatest 2nd half offensive performances in SU history and so much of this thread is harping on the weaknesses instead of his strengths. I'm sure if we had won lots of people would be praising how he led us back in the 2nd half...

    Carmelo remains the greatest freshman in college basketball history

    Better defensive player than Melo no doubt but Melo was better overall IMHO.

    Why isn't Duke better?

    Reddish has had a disappointing year but Barrett has been special. I wish we had a player who coasted to breaking Kenny Anderson's record for most 20 point games by a frosh, had a rare triple double for Duke and helped to lead his team to the overall number 1 seed. Sign me up for a Syracuse...

    Does Anybody Else Think

    I wouldn't be in the stands today if some no name 300+ ranked team was playing - I want to play against good non conference games and enjoy the games against the old rivals - of course I would rather take a time machine back to the 80's...

    Duke 2/17 from 3, Allen 6 points

    That was the first game all year our guys played like they didn't belong playing on the same court at Duke. They have been a team that has never given up all year but they played with a lack of confidence from the tip.

    JR year Frank Howard vs Sr year Jason Hart

    Hart was clearly better than Frank will ever be IMHO and is arguably the best defensive point guard ever to play at SU.

    Kenny Anderson: "I wanted to go to Syracuse."

    I still remember watching Kenny putting up 50+ in an Empire States game and making it look so easy - 1990 would have been a magical season with him at point. But I've also always wondered what that season would have been like if the General had redshirted his freshman year when he played...

    I hope he is but why would we ever use a scholarship on him when JB could easily pay his way himself?
