Boeheim's candor

[OttoMets]

Completely agree, but wow: "Every one of these games is a little bit of sadness for me. I know where all the good restaurants are now, and now I've got to go down to Clemson, S.C. I'm sure there's a couple of Denny's down there."

That'll play well with the new conference-mates. Love it.

Jim knows the best Italian restaurants in every Big East city... and every NCAA site we've visited. I'm sure he will find them in Clemson (if Clemson has Italian restaurants).

If not, I'm sure Denny's makes a mean chicken parm.

AWESOME!! I love that guy. I'd like to go to a good italian restaurant with him sometime, especially since when I dine and ditch and then tell him it was just a misunderstanding, he'll be cool with it. I'm kidding, but JB and I see eye-to-eye on this one -- I've been to a bunch of ACC cities and there is no doubt that it will be a huge adjustment for any of us who enjoy attending away games.

He could go to Brioso Fresh Pasta in Clemson, but since they'll fly into and out of Greenville, SC...he'll go to Pasta Trattoria Giorgio in Greenville.

LMFAO

Barbecue, baby, barbecue. Down here it makes Dino's taste like DiGiorno's.

At least he won't lose Louisville and Pittsburgh.. and he'll get Boston back. And we'll still play at least one game a year in NYC. But he'll probably miss Providence, Hartford, Chicago, Milwaukee, Cincy, Philly and some other spots where he knows restaurants. But it did not take him long to find the best Italian restaurant in SLC three years ago, so he will probably survive.

Jim's comment cracked me up. I guess Jim knows that Denny's headquarters is located in Spartanburg, just a short distance up I-85 from Clemson. Denny's are located all over SC. Since my wife won't go in one (or a Waffle House) I guess I won't get to see Jim when he travels to the Carolinas!

Eating at a waffle house is a pretty good chance at finding yourself in a crossfire in VA/DC.

Have you ever eaten at any of Greenville's restaurants... there's quite a few good one's in downtown Greenville.

With DePaul playing home games at the Allstate, Im not sure there is a lot of time to get to downtown Chicago. In fact, I would imagine a road trip to DePaul would be awful. Airport. Airport hotel. Allstate Arena. Airport. Shoot me.

I'm sure there are. I just like moaning about the demise of the big east.

He may have to change his position on gun control now that we are in the ACC.

 

[cuseguy]

If you saw all the SU fans walking the streets of downtown Providence tonight, you'd be sad, too. I'm going to miss Big East basketball. Glad I made the 90 minute drive today. Well worth it.

Boeheim is going to be the JT2 of this conference before he even plays a game.

No it doesn't. Been down here for 19 years, and Dino every bit as good. Actually better than 90% IMO.

At least down here the good guys can have guns, too.

This thread is whack.

While Chicago cuisine is unparalleled for innovation and rivaled by only NYC and SF in quality, several of the popular restaurants (mostly steakhouses and Lettuce Entertain You joints) have opened up shop in the Rosemont/Des Plaines area.

If I recall the story correctly from SLC, PJ recommended the restaruant there. Forget Zagat's, if you want to know the best restaruants in any city, PJ is your man.

It's usually Morton's in Rosemont on the DePaul roadies.

I work in Greenville and there are some very good restaurants downtown. If anyone comes down for a Clemson game I highly recommend a visit to downtown Greenville.
