In 2023, what will be the best job available?[/B][/HEADING] [B]Davis:[/B] Hate to say it, but the bell is tolling for Jim Boeheim. Roy is gone, K is gone, and next season Buddy and [URL='https://theathletic.com/player/college-basketball/syracuse-orange-college-basketball/jimmy-boeheim/']Jimmy Boeheim[/URL] will be gone from the Syracuse roster, too. Boeheim will be 78 in November, and last season the Orange failed to qualify for the NCAA Tournament for just the second time in the last 13 years. One thing Boeheim will need to consider is that the longer he stays, the less influence he will have on who his successor will be. The widespread assumption is that it will be Gerry McNamara, but Boeheim might want to do what Jim Calhoun and Bo Ryan did by at least forcing the school to name McNamara interim replacement by announcing his retirement before next spring. Or maybe he will follow the Coach K/Jon Scheyer model and get everything set before the season starts. Boeheim is a proud competitor with a Hall of Fame legacy, but he has to be careful about staying on too long. [/QUOTE]
