Message: [QUOTE="Consigliere, post: 2185285, member: 559"] I rarely disagree with Coach but posting this from Maui is one of those times Boeheim and his first wife were vacationing in Hawaii with Rick Pitino, who was a Boeheim assistant before embarking on his own remarkable coaching career, and Pitino’s wife. As the four soaked in the Hawaiian sun, according to Scott Pitoniak’s insightful Boeheim biography, “Color Him Orange,” the conversation turned to which place on earth would be the perfect place to live. Pitino said Honolulu. Pitino’s wife said Park Avenue in New York City. Boeheim’s first wife, Elaine, said Paris. And Boeheim? He said the not-quite-paradise of Syracuse, N.Y. “Syracuse is like Hawaii for eight months of the year,” Boeheim explained to the incredulous group. “The other four months, I don’t care about the weather because we’re playing basketball.” [/QUOTE]
