Boeheim's Army / TBT 2022

[Dick_in_MI]

Umm, Buddy is under an NBA contract, which likely prohibits him playing in unsanctioned leagues or games

I was referring to Jimmy. I’m very aware of Buddy’s contract and didn’t think I needed to differentiate between the two.

The world (recruits) only see it as a Syracuse Alum win or a Syracuse Win. Anything with Syracuse wins is great for recruiting.

I'd venture to guess that Boeheim's Army isn't a part of the pitch to croots at all.

Okay I can already tell that I was wrong about the high school kids on OTE right now. They belong.

Yes, but it's basketball and they probably watch. The name "Boeheim's Army" is good publicity for SYR.

In the sense that all publicity is good publicity, sure.

I think adding Jimmy would be great. Not sure how much he'd play but I know he'd play hard.

Jimmy Boeheim, perhaps?

At long last, an actual Boeheim will play for Boeheim’s Army

Jimmy Boeheim, newly finished with a final college basketball season in Syracuse, will join the team with the family name.

It doesn’t hurt, but it’s would be difficult to convince me it helps at all, our recruiting has been awful since BA’s inception, there’s no correlation that it hurts, but I doubt it helps in any way.

 

[OrangeDW]

I believe BA can add another player before Tuesday maybe? Anyway, 72 hrs before their first game.

Am I the only one who would not be surprised to see a player added who 1) is Orange 2) whose summer league team finishes today 3) is not on any contract that we know of, and 4) whose name is in the name of BA.

We could use one more 4/5 I think and said player would certainly be no worse than some of the other guys we have had in the past, even if he is deep on the bench.

Great call!

Surprised but not surprised. I thought he might go right into training in with hopes of getting a G league of overseas contract. Playing for BA might serve the same purpose. I think he could help BA. Youthful legs and some skills with his junkyard game.
