Next year will be year 3 for Gait so it will be just about his staff’s entirely recruited team. If the team is not yet competing for final fours it will be frustrating.
It is so hard to be patient as 2009 feels like 100 years ago. The same thing with the last final four…was it 2012? Going this long without a final four felt unfathomable for my lifetime following this program.
The worst part for me is that it has been the same problems during that span regardless of who is the head coach: poor wing play/FOGO play, SSDM, defense, in game coaching, defensive communication on the field, midfield depth, team speed all come to my mind.
Seems like we have found a decent goalie…that has been a rough spot the past few years. The man up offense has made significant progress. There have been some vintage Syracuse goals and fast breaks this year.
Go Orange!
