Do you think Boeheim has a set retirement date that he will stick to?

[JustPherU]

Why do most of the traditional powers stink then?

Kansas is the only traditional blue blood currently ranked.

Kentucky-Carolina-Duke are still getting the top players, they might be underperforming but Carolina showed last season the cream usually rises.

 

[MikeSU02]

How exactly does one misspeak when specifically naming two teams?

Surround yourself with people who worship you, you stop caring about the truth and accountability.

 

[kcsu]

The power struggle begins. He will not do what’s best for the program and not make it ugly

Jim feels entitled. Someone, probably the Chancellor needs to have a chat with him and remind him who his employer is and of his responsibilities.

 

[OrangeDW]

Curious- how do any of these comments by JB benefit the program, schoo, players and himself? Not saying you have stated they do but if their is an opposite take on all this where this is a good thing or even neutral... I'm not seeing it

They are attempts to benefit himself and himself only. “Awww poor coach, he’s doing such a great job against all these other schools that are cheating. Almost pulled off some great upsets! He’s still got it!”

 

[OptimusOtto]

Just embarrassing. I hate that this is the route we’re going down.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

At least Thamel didn't report that Boeheim was going to be the new DC at Nebraska.

I thought tournament success was flukey.

UK has been caught by Alabama, Auburn, and Tennessee.

This is the second time in 3 years Duke has looked like a bubble team or worse. A lot harder to win when you don’t sign all top 10 players.

There is still time

 

[Toga]

Do we still have a golf team?

 

[richmondcuse03]

Do we still have a golf team?

maybe we can convince him to retire with an annual invitation to the pebble beach pro am?

 

[MikeSU02]

Just want to point out a few things:

1) we still don’t know what’s the net net with Benny. Guessing he’s out after this year.

2) Remember JB trashed Bell in the media a few days ago. Unjustly mean and overboard.

3) as I noted, no one in the media has done the exhaustive story on our downturn and current situation.

So, instead, we have national media providing death by a thousand cuts and national and local media commentating on the commentary.

We have zero 2023 recruits, our coach is shooting a flamethrower every time he has a mic in front of him, our major benefactor is posting pics with some *interesting* characters and same coach is now lying about other programs.

JB is a human that has been paid millions of dollars and is in the HoF among many other awards. He is not a god.

Didn’t Duke go to Final Four last year-Carolina to Championship

 

[tptcuse]

One does have to wonder what JB likes about coaching.

 

[81South]

Poor Julie…she must be losing her mind over this show.

Someone needs to setup an intervention.

Have you seen the classes Duke and UK have for next year? Insane. They’ll be fine.

 

[Cuse'91]

Dear JB,
Actually, I would prefer us just to be mediocre, rather than a laughing stock. Thanks a bunch.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Didn’t Duke go to Final Four last year-Carolina to Championship

And this year? The league stinks. They are not getting all the players they used to. More teams are able to get good
players. That’s the entire point.

 

[MikeSU02]

Again, look at the classes for next year. This isn’t true.

 

[Cusefan69]

That's really funny. JB when he retires needs to find a barbershop and he needs to be that curmudgeon that sits in the unused chair with a newspaper and jumps into conversations.

 

[Brooky03]

One does have to wonder what JB likes about coaching.

Probably the money

 

[NineOneSeven]

What a strange interview. I don’t even understand why that occurred let alone the answers.

 

[tptcuse]

Probably the money

I highly doubt that. He's set for generations and has been for a very long time.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Duke’s class this year was better though. Cal better win next year or they are going to do everything they can to move on to Oats.

Love ya Jimmy!
